I read your post, and before I look at the site I want to tell you that, statistically speaking, ~37% of people still use 800x600 resolutions, and W3Schools specifically says
Quote:
Web developers be aware: Many users still have only 800x600 display screens.
.

Now, let's take a look at the site.

You should get rid of the intro page (the one before the one with the ad). It's a waste of time and bandwidth.

All in all, I really like the flash thing...especially the game of pong...

hmmm.. this may sound stupid, but at the pong game, I clicked enter at bottom right, and it loaded that blue page with the white lines darting across. Where do you go from there? I can't see any links or anything

Ahhh! I've got it - the box is the menu lol

Just a tip - shouldn't some text saying this be on that blue page at the top or bottom?

Or maybe, the word 'menu' could float around next to box...

Also, could the pop-up flash menus have a background, because sometimes the white text is quite hard to read. And when you first click something on the box, could there be a loading animation, because you are not sure whether you actually clicked anything

Edit: I find it hard to click on the box when it is below the mouse, it seems to run away...
