Title/Landing page too slow to load with no indication whether it will self-direct to Home page or should I click somewhere?

No link back to Home in navigation bar.

Initial display of Home (product on right) has no product name. There is way too much white space; consider placing product description with title. The left/right transition would then be a more useful eye-catcher while providing an immediate source of information. Being forced to click may result in a click away from your site.

Information missing: Why your brand? What makes it special? The company name suggests a theme which is not capitalized upon.

Your info-box is just not right. Lose the scroll box in favor of a fully visible paragraph with its own header/title.

Your contact page contains no contact or location information.

I do agree with the first reply on most of the points but also i think if you just change the intro page to be more Search Engine friendly and make it either more understandable for the user to know what to do after the odd intro and maybe add content or something more to catch their eye on this intro because it looks like a transition effect and then no real directional instructions. Just a thought.

The presumed focus of each page is determined by its Title and/or Header; therefore, a contact page should have as its primary focus - contact information. That information should be the first thing I notice. What do I see? Images. An image CAN be a link but, there is no indication this might be the case. You know what's up, your visitors do not. Start making me guess and I guess I'll leave. I honestly did not notice the MySpace link. Put the link above the image which will still dominate the visual field by contrast yet, allow instant recognition of the MySpace contact point.

I normally run FlashBlockPlus and AutoRunBlocker to to stop those annoying flash and mp3 landing pages which slow down my work flow and the page load time. Consider scaling down the flash size and using within the site. At the very least put a "skip intro" link just above the skip intro banner. First time visitors may not realize your intent and simply click the easiest link - X

The landing page is quite confusing. It has no indication to where it will be landed. It has also no indication if it's needed to click on the two menus which are "Light to some" and "dark to others".. Its loading time is quite slow too..
