    so i tried with internet explorer, .. i know against your will, but i did manage to open the picture :)
    it did load slow though both chrome and internet explorer but i did have half a million tabs open at the time.

    Damn, I guess I will look for different gallery.
    Well the effects are very easy to do. I only used jQuery: fadeIn and fadeOut (actually a fadeToggle) functions. For page transitions I set css: display:none to the content, and I tell jQuery to fadeIn the content when the page is ready (document.ready). And so on :D

    Really sorry man :( I'll change the gallery as soon as I can.
    About the moving asteroids. It's a simple image at first hidden with negative bottom or left css values. Then I just animate those values, For example .animate css:bottom:50%; so the asteroid will aways go out from nowhere to the half of the screen. Also in the last phase I give it width & height =0 so its shrinking, giving this illusion. About the rotating effect, there is a jQuery plugin with which you can rotate objects. Thanks for comment.

    It looks cool in FF and IE (yeah, I looked...you tell me not to do something, I'm going to do it). It's confusing, though.

    I clicked on a half-moon thing in the home page. The menu disappeared and I couldn't get it back unless I reloaded.

    Your contact me page mixes English and what looks to be Bulgarian together. I don't know which field on the contact form is which.

    I'm not sure why you're running two sites, either. If you're a web/graphic designer, you might as well combine them into one. Why do twice the promotional work when you don't have to?

    Hi TheGAME1264.
    The moon thing is wierd but...what can I say, cross browser support aint easy job :D Although I fixed everything in the browsers I have at home.
    Thanks for telling me about the "contact me" translation.

    The second site actually is the website of the firm in which I work. So marioiliev.com is my personal site but linking to the other one is kind of telling people that they can hire me not only as a freelanceer, but trough this company. I'am making a new company website so, soon I'll show it here.

    Thanks for the comment.

    Okay...I suppose that makes sense. Although the way I interpreted it, it looked like you were putting up two sites for two separate reasons. You may want to look at explaining that more clearly, though.

    Very nice looking site. I was using Firefox and it looked and displayed fine. The only issue was the slow loading of your artwork in gallery.

    I don't think you need to change the gallery, maybe your pictures are too big for your jquery to load I know fancybox etc had problems loading heavy stuff

    The website looks very nice, very cool effects too. Biggest problem is the gallery. Using Chrome and it crashed as soon as I tried to view an image in it's full size.

    yes, I'm very sorry to all for that. I just don't have time now to change it :(
    I have a question... Why in the website details in the top of the threat, it says invalid XHTML/CSS ? It is actually validated.

    Really awesome effects. Once I opened it I thought you created it in Flash! Nice work.

    I'm using Firefox and the site didn't crash on me, but it loaded slow. The site is fun.

    I asked about the validation in the Moderators section, and this is what RickM (Administrator) said:


    So I guess it'll show up as validating sometime soon.:)
