    for #26,
    I am not winning the contest for sure. But I would like to give some suggestions, as I dont want to hurt my client's business. The logo appeared two times, which I can't even remember because of the time factor. There is a research done by expert visual advertisers from UK that A logo in an animation should be in screen for 4 seconds in still mode. it could be scaled but should not rotate or transform cause of our retina system. Otherwise human brain cant remember the color and shape information. Secondly the texts with flares are causing too much repeat that the INFORMATION is overruled. The ending will occur a confusion with the logo itself.

    Well, I dont know but my work (MY GENUINE WORK) is so cheap that goes with 4 stars. I called testers and reviewers in the industry and they told me "The intro should be attractive and encourage those who see it to revisit the site when it will be launched." will go with it. and now I can see and feel the reverse effect. Anyway, Best of luck folks. My well wishes for the winning entry, not to degrade or anything but these are excellent choices for $180. At the end of the day money rules, yes. I will try to make more cheap things everyday. Peace.

      Thank you for your proposal and your efforts.
      We think you should bring: :
      - More creativity: it looks a bit like a powerpoint slide. The intro should impress visitors.
      - More originality was the feeling of having seen it before
      - More vitality: Consider using sonors effects, music ...

      Regards

    Hi Jawharbf --- with regards to your flash intro. In behalf of all of the participant, I would like to ask for a screen grab (added on your attached files) of your unfinished home page to see your color branding so that your intro will transition seem-less with your homepage. The contest Title states of only an Intro, correct me if I am wrong (Not Promotional Video). If including a promotional video, please consider that a different project if possible. Regards
