It's all made in Flash with SwishMAX!

Okay..

1) The flash intro is useless. There's no point in having one for a site like that.

2) The colors definately clash on the main site. You have rainbow colored mouseovers on a red and black site. Red and black are harsh enough colors as it is, but those rainbow mouseovers put the final nail in the coffin.

3) Use flash to enhance your site, not to build it. HTML/CSS are great ways to structure a site, and you can have a flash heading or something, but a complete site of this caliber in flash just doesn't cut it. Only guys that are really good at flash can get away with making sites completely with flash.

Sorry for the harsh critique, it's nothing personal, and god knows i'm not the best web designer (shutup guys) here, but over all work on those three things and you may have a great looking site. You are obviously creative, now put it to good use through the right medium!

You need to fix your browser detecting script. It doesn't work at all in Firefox so I can't see the site.

oh, right. I only did Netscape and IE!

And, by the way guys, this is just a site I did for fun in like 30 minutes... it's not a site I want to show off or anything. That intro was the first thing I've ever done in flash, so I said "wth" and decided to put it up anyways. And that James Bond thing was just an edit from a .GIF version of the walking Bond (I've always wanted to give credit to the person who did that but I never found the site again...)
So, this was basically just practice to exactly what you said: to make some great Flash headers and sidebars and stuff to incorporate into HTML and Java/JS sites.

Check out this other one that I did for my friend:

See my comments above, same problems. Only this time that font is also a problem, and you don't give the option to skip the intro.

I love the way I can't skip either intro. That's awesome.
