Which is of course why no one likes to post there! :) ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire! Real Mentats use only 100% pure, unfooled around with Sapho Juice(tm)!

Sorry, meant to hit 5. I seem to have a knack for that. :O

Too much non-HTML, my firewall refuses to load it. So even without broken keyboard navigation, you've broken the interface. Given THAT poor design choice, I would probably NOT be interested in any services or products you're selling.

Ummm ... in a word ... yuck! A triumph of style over substance (like lots of other Flash sites). Tell the creative guys they got it wrong. X| X| X|

Don't use Flash. I wouldn't have even entered the web site had it not been to give feedback. As previously stated, more style than substance. One very odd, and poor, design decision were the tiny little fonts for the major categories while the logo took up most the screen (and in THREE places!) DON'T USE PDFs. I hate them. Everyone I respect hates them. The only people I ever met who liked them were the Java programmers at my last company. LDS? What this is for Mormons? The real irony is you're sell a "lightning development suite" yet used Flash for your own web site, which runs slow. That redefines idiotic. (And apparently LDS is so freaking bad, you have to use PDFs as well. Brilliant marketing.) Incidentally, the BACK button didn't work when I was done perusing the overview. (I had opened the PDF and looked at it.) Graphics on the "Company" page are too dark and imposing. Moreover, the page isn't about the "Company" at all. And "Contact us" is too small. Do you want people to contact you or not. Also, why is LDS better than .NET? Potential customers will want to know that. The guy writing the checks wants to know why he should pay you more money after shelling out for salaries and MSDN Universal for a team. Incidentally, I gave up looking at your site when you started downloading 800k of graphics to my computer! Is your company out of its mind? Nobody is going to tolerate this. You have less than 3 seconds to load up a new page, especially if you use the word "Lightning" in your product name. This is a horrible web site. It lacks any real substance and does a terrible job selling what you have. That you obviously used someone elses product for your site pretty much makes you look like idiots and your potential customers like suckers.

flash is really bad. 1) it takes so much time, the people will have less desire to go your site. 2) it's only interesting the first time, then it's just a pain to skip over to the real content. 3) i can't figure out what your site does or what your product does. There is so much to read, people will give up without even looking deeper. what's the point of the site if it doesn't deliver the goods. 4) i usually don't have flash installed, and when asked, i usually say "no" to installing. it's too much of a hassle. fire your creative guys. tell them to work for a movie studio. Thanks, Wes

NormDroid

Thank you both ;)
