I am working on my personal site and still have a long way to go on it. I need to animate it more and add sound. But let me know what you think.

I'm actually a web designer so I think I can give you some advice.

1. Your site doesn't benefit at all from using flash. Ditch it for now.
2. Don't use serif fonts for body text, use arial/helvetica or verdana they are easier to read.
3. Rethink your logo and make it WAY smaller.
4. Those white bars are distracting. Either get rid of them completely or make them much thinner like maybe 20px.

Here is a site to give you an idea of what people are looking for. http://bestwebgallery.com/

Also, NEVER put sound on your website. Unless it's a flash game, just don't.

If I go to a site and it has sound... I exit IMMEDIATELY.
