RE: New Macromedia website- I love the interface! :)

2003-03-07 Thread Michael Wilson
Hi,

I have not decided if I love the new look--or hate it. I like certain
elements, but think others are too trend-whorish. I do, however, understand
the need to push limits and experiment with new ideas; I support this
philosophy as well and the new site has some really nice new features.
Aesthetics aside, the new CF Developers Exchange is a PITA to use--at least
to use the way I would like. It seems to be the "little things" that I am
noticing most often, but I noticed them immediately because I've had to
completely change the way I browse the gallery. For example:

One cannot right-click links and open a new window from the tag list
interface

One cannot use the mouse's scroll button to scroll the "frames" (it will
take me forever to break this habit)

Dragging the frame scroll bar maxes out the CPU, lags up my PC, and has an
"artificial" sort of feel

The browser must reload the entire interface when you view a tag an then
return to the tag list/search (I despise this "feature")

The "syntax usage" pop-up seems unnecessary, and contains far too many "read
the read me" messages

It is much slower than before, which, is damn hard to believe

I love Flash, but I do not like how it was used within the CFDE.

New Macromedia website- I love the interface! :)

I LOVE IT!!

I just went to the Developer's Exchange..and then the sign-in page.
I ..umm..don't remember doing it but I was in there as Gelly Bean
^_^

I'm blown away by the interface! I really really like it! The
buttons..the color scheme..
Its just..its really visually appealing!! KUDOS! 
And when you update..it pops a window saying update complete
..everything is so cool!

One thing I noticed though..is that my iexplore.exe process hits 90% CPU
usage when I access the flash interface,
And at times it can be a little sluggish.

So! When are we getting a tutorial on "How We Did It"..with sample code
etc. :)
