What would you like comments about? There is only an interface on that page with 2 links to other sites. The interface is OK, if you did it yourself its pretty good.

Kevin

Oh, I get it! At first, I didn't really see everything that was going on. The menus expand when the mouse passes over, and the little green arrows hide them. It looks like you did a little ActionScripting in Flash, so kudos on that. Personally, I'm only at point-and-click stage.
Since that's primarily what's on the page, I assume you want feedback on that.
I like Flash, but I hesitate to use it for navigational purposes, considering that although high-speed Internet is becoming popular, there are still a large number of people surfing around on systems that will either take some time to load Flash, or not at all.
Otherwise, the functionality of the Flash buttons are the strong point. Rather than have rounded corners, giving it the impression of button after button after button, I would suggest that each submenu appear to be one bar with the different words on it. Since the individual buttons mouse-over as well, there shouldn't be any problem distinguishing them.
Of course, the buttons should be evenly spaced, and I don't think I would have chosen dark gray buttons on a blue background. Also, having a gradient button mouse over to a solid button is distracting to me.
I hope this helps.

Thanks Internet Ben what you said was just what I needed.
I will try to update to include your suggestions.

I think it looks cool, except for one simple thing.
It seems to me that when your mouse leaves the button that popped up the sub menu, that the sub menu should go away. Otherwise, what's the point? Just pop them all up at once.

i agree with warrencon, those popup menu should disappear onmouseout rather than onmouseclick on those green arrows. if the flash file gets too big, perhaps u can try using dhtml or javascript.

from the point of view of a newbie....I would say that your expanding menu pisses me off, becuase it doesnt close automaticaly. I like your layout otherwise, perhaps you could find another script or .class or whatever you used, that would close itself when the mouse isnt over it. it was far too complicated for my simple mind to figure out.
