Roland has been slaving over a hot computer lately, creating my new website. I'd love for folks to take a look at it and let us know if you see errors or poorly chosen words in the spanish version, or any general technical, cultural, or other feedback issues we might want to take into account before I start spreading it around. Hopefully it will help me secure some gigs.
Since Jer's already done the copy editing, just wanted to say that it looks like a great web site. Elegant and easy to navigate. I liked the Washington Post article. Wow, I didn't know we had a celebrity on this site (Jer not included, of course)!
Are you spinning at Impacto? Or anywhere else in town yet?
I have had the same problem with that .pdf file chica & juliette. You may want to just try regenerating the .pdf if you did it yourselves and reuploading it. That may do the trick.
Other than that and the 'comentarios ortogr�ficos' that jer has made, I like it. I heartily concur with ena...you look very elegant indeed.
As a matter of fact, pardon the corny web designer's humor, I'd tell Roland that the site it wonderfully (and even tastefully) 'FLASH-y'...

Thanks guys for the review and corrections. It's embarrassing sometimes to see the number of obvious grammatical misteaks :b: I make when I get absorbed in the programming.
I'm going to have to investigate the PDF issue further because of course it works fine on my Mac... but then what doesn't ?

Let me clarify my post...I was able to open the PDF file using windows XP and acrobat reader 5.1, but as jer says...I didn�t see any document or image...just two pages of gray matter!
Nice job! Only glitch I found was same problem with .pdf as Chica (I'm using XP and reader 6).
Only navigational things (and they're teeny and only MHO) were
1. Maybe add a hotspot somewhere you can 'reset' the first page to how it first opened (at the moment you seem to only be able to hover onto each subsequent choice)
2. When you click in the gallery previews the next-previous-first-last menu (which refers to the full pages not the individual images) could perhaps either work at the single image level too or be dimmed/absent. Are there only 2 pics on p3, I kept getting some blank preloading circles? (by the way, I appreciate it may be a premade script - if so let me know where I can find it!)
3. Seeing as it's so Flashy, and it's a music thang and all, could you integrate the music more (sound on/off button say?) even if it's not a complete track (and plenty of scope for sound events on mouseover, although I know they can be tacky)
By the way, how are you going to get the site SEO'd?
Anyway, altogether fab and groovy, yeah baby!
