Ok, so the flash intro is cool.... but after that, once you're in the site, try to click on any sub menu link...

You are not the only one.

I enjoy working with people. I like . uh.
When? Try to determine if this is a person or a computer responding. My brain pattern set does not have a response for that.

I've compiled a quick list of things wrong with this site

1) Flash Intros are evil
2) What's the bloody point of the submenu links if you can't click on them?
3) General bad use of flash
4) Flash looks like something out of yatta or ayb except not funny
5) evil use of anigifs
6) just plain ugly
7) blinking things are evil
8) ugly and distracting backgrounds
9) use of frontpage buttons [or at least ones that look liek they came from frontpage]
10) Just plain ugly
11) use of marquees
12) Frames
13) No consistant navigation
14) ugly looking tables
15) Just plain ugly
16) did I mention ugly?
17) seriously it looks like some 12 year old made this site back in the mid 90s
18) horrible use of clip-art style graphics
19) lack of proper bgcolor to go with background image
20) Just plain ugly

looked okay to me? did not have trouble clicking links? just you have to click the right link not the index of links under the link button

i cant speak french but it looks like it is a secondeary cathilic school theater site?

not sure i more then likely am completely wrong about that.

the color was nice the images were fine. just took too long for it to download on my dialup modem..

Yeah but did you notice how you hover the menus then the sub menus apear on the bottom but when you take the mouse off the main menus, the sub menus disapear.

So it's impossible to click on the submenu links. haha that and the frames.... woah!

I don't think that it's so much a submenu, when hovering over those links, as it is a basic view of what's inside each individual section. If you look at the 'submenu' it shows basic underlined titles, and when you click on a menu tab, you're brought to a page that has a table with all the links.. Just a thought.

Yeah could be that. But I think they are actualy meant to be links. A teacher at my school was showing me that site as we were laughing. I was saying how I usually avoid using frames and he showed me that one...
