I'm surprised MM would launch this site given: - Jakob Neilson (and other usability professionals) are going to be watching - They are trying to 'sell sell sell' the idea that Flash has matured and is now faster, friendlier, etc.
For my own interest, I checked out the site in several browsers: - NS 6.2.3 and 7.1 (seems to work nearly as I imagine is intended) - NS 4.79 (very little of the site can be seen) - NS 4.78 (much like 4.79, very little can be seen, and the links that are visible, aren't functional) - Mozilla 1.1 (depricates nicely w/o Flash in this browser) - IE 6 (the links in the main 'top' bar don't work properly) It's unfortunate. -- Jillian > -----Original Message----- > From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: March 5, 2003 9:21 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: New Macromedia.com launched! > > > I can't say I am too happy with the new site (it was nice to > look at first off and in all honesty: It seems a gimmick), > but I cant see how you could have failed to find the > exchanges : www.macromedia.com/exchange > > -----Original Message----- > From: paris lundis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 05 March 2003 15:11 > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: New Macromedia.com launched! > > > Marcromedia needs to stop it with all their flash > everywhere... it's bad design, slow and confusing in many regards... > > They keep changing the groupings of things as well ... quite > a pain this morning to find the Exchanges... had to use the > site map.... > > That corner loading/initiaing thing is annoying and doesn't > make me feel the site is any more responsive... > > Hopefully they revise this... > > Oh and the Exchange by default shows some goofy collection of > files initially... you have to go to a right side of screen > block to select show newest... a change from how it > historically has worked... > > But hey it's pretty.
