Did away with the popup design but still created so that 800x600 users can view. Upgraded the graphics used and revamped the flash movies.
Need input, thanks.

i liked the site esp. the graphics, but i didn't like how it was all done in a pop up window, when the pop up first appeared i closed it straight away as i thought it was just a webring first, you should at least put something in the main window rather than just leave it blank.

It's not a pop-up, it is full screen mode with the menu bar removed. It's kiosk mode. This way I gain another 75 pixels of usable space for design. The previous site was completely in a pop-up window. And yes I can't stand how the first window stays but since it is an original window it will not self close without a prompt. It is the actual index.html that open the second window, Dream Portal, it's the only way to get kiosk mode. Myabe I should add an image and some text explaining this, thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the input on the site, all of the graphics are mine. Any particular item you liked?

i dont think you need kiosk mode seeing as you have all that negative space down the bottom and your enter button is a bit rough. Other than that - the site is really nice and good subject matter.

umm actually it is a pop up. at least on my computer it is. by the term pop up we mean a new window with the site contained in it, not like ads or something else. i'd put something in the first window so people see it when they close the main window, maybe something like "thanks for visiting pixelateddreams" and a logo or something. keep it simple, other than that, great site.

The enter was generated by Xara 3D, I was thinking that it was kinda rough. Thanks for pointing that out. As for the negitive space  being out of the way.... I have been struggling to place everything on a 800x600 viewing for ease of use..... I give up, it just seems to complicate things or putting something on the first screen like thanks for visiting I'll do tonight. What about click thrus? A page where it's not taking up my space. An ad page!!!

Thank you all for the comments, you've been a great resource, bye for now.
