Looks good. Nice and easy to get around.

However, some of your videos would not load.

thanks jim...
which videos wouldnt download?

The only two that worked for me are the Flash versions of "It's not my fault." (Demo and Integrale.)

Neither of the flash videos under "Head Case" loaded.

Every Quicktime and WMV link on the video page sent me to a 404 "Not Found" error page.

I'm on a Mac using Safari. Same thing in Firefox.

two things instantly.

ONE
I select English, then if I click "home" it goes back to select a language again. I can't see any reason for that. Do you expect me to maybe have learned italian in the 5 seconds since I clicked english? Do you think I would decide, maybe the page site will be better in Italian.

TWO
I select a language, then theres an animation. I wait and watch the animation. It goes nowhere. just shows photos of you. I thought it was an intro to something, but it was just a loop. felt like you don't care about my time.

Overall it was quite nice. A few issues...

- I liked the photos but in the photo gallery the images took awhile to load
- I tried watching one of the Flash movie and it took foooorrrreeevvver, so I stopped. It should be able to start instantly.
- Also, I'm not sure the point in including .wmv files anymore...what's the consensus on this? Isn't just having a Flash video the most easily watched video. Having the others just makes things confusing.
- I agree, the photos could be cut out a lot cleaner unless that's the "style", but if that was the case than they should be cut out worse.
- I'm not a fan of sites that hijack my browser and go full screen, this seems to be a trend and I haven't found anyone who likes it. Plus there doesn't seem to be a point because there isn't anything about the site that gets that big.
- Seems to be a typo in the caption on the last photo in the gallery, it says, "Migh..." instead of Mike.

thanks for the feedback everybody... no changes have been made scot cuz i've been traveling and working and it's all gotta wait until october... the site ain't perfect but it's gettin me enough gigs to not have time to change it. and scot, i know lots of bilingual people who easily bounce back and forth between english and italian and if italian festivals need info in both languages for posters and flyers then it's easy to do so. soon it'll be in french as well. then you'll have to learn three languages in 5 minutes.
thanks again everyone

I'm fine with multiple languages, but heres what to do, remove your home page completely. where it says "home" on the menu, put a list of languages and make it obvious which one is currently selected.

I see you have language switching in the bottom right corner, but it's not obvious enough. The home page is an annoying step.

currently, the next page (after you switch languages) is not listed on the menu. It is a series of pictures that seems like its leading somewhere, but it's not. The photos are nice, overlay your bio and you've gotta new bio page.
