I saw this web about half a year ago. And still, it is the BEST site that I see. It's to bad that this site now is offline. I really want to see it again. Hope 2Advanced Studio hear me !!!

This is an amaizing design. Flash elements are delicious, and the general design is really friendly.

I'm slanted toward the fast loading, highly usable design and while this design is a masterpiece as concerns web-page art it is not practical.

Nice to look at but I would not want to have to use.

2advanced is obviously one of the best design studios in the world. I don't buy any of the nonsense about 2advanced copying off of others, and simply looking at their portfolio reflects the quality of their work. I run a small design house of my own, and am quite jealous of 2advanced, as I am sure most of the people negatively rating them are.

By the way, v.4 is not too great. You can access v.3 still at http://www.2advanced.com/archive/v3/

Ah! originality is a very overestimated value in a world that has seen everything (or, at least, in a world that thinks so).

Anyhow, we must recognize this site rocks in many ways. come on, the graphics are outstanding, the way Jordan uses flash tech is almost perfect.

But... what's true is that the site is a torture to read. Nothing more annoying than those little caps... looks cool, but at the end it makes the site remain in the graphics... I can�t imagine somebody, even if he/she is really interested, goin' all the way through the text...

What are we talking here? Well, the coolest design in the world is not always the best. That's a designer's law... and Jordan knows it pretty well. I think he was more interested about causing a web-designers-shock. And that's mission acomplished.

This is not yet a web standar, I think. This is the future, and as any future, it is subject to get better.

That's all that needs to be said. People who don't believe this have either stolen 2a's ideas themselves or wish to make a page that good and can't.

This kind of art never go out of style. The color never fades. The inspiration is always there. It's just too bad I'm not part of it! Hehe.

The studio: "2advanced" is truely too advanced, lol. The graphics and layout designs are very good!

As a designer myself, i envy them.

And like another reviewer said, it does make you push yourself to the limit inorder to create a site better than 2advanced or "nearly" as good.

The usability is not that hard to cope with, but that is to my experience, i feel the more technologically advanced, the better.

Very nice design, but 2advanced are maybe a little bit too advanced when it comes to usability. The site is actually pretty worthless in regards to readability and navigation. The layout and graphics are keeping the site alive.

Scores very close to a 10 in terms of aesthetic appearance and interactivity but average in the other aspects of user interface (eg. mutability, usability). Maybe they need to hire a UI specialist. But overall, really good site.

the site sucks, I liked www.2methods.com much better. The use of flash is basic but their portfolio is the best one i have ever seen, 2advanced is making the best portfolio sites. Cant say the same for www.whoswe.com , just check the portfolio and you see.

but i don`t like the site.

I dont like the 2advanced site as well as I did about 3 years ago: but they are doing this since 1998. Eric Jordan from 2advanced was the first of all flash monsters on the web, and he invented that monochrome-blue-techno-fashion style that is very common today and is being ripped off by thousands of designers. They deserve a 10.

I think people rag on 2a because they know they will never be able to produce something so technical and beautiful. It is simply the most amazing looking website, and most animated movement between pages and buttons that i have ever seen. Get a life people, stop ragging on the site because you want to be the rebel and draw attention to yourselves. It blows away anything else on the top 25 and everyone here knows it.

Oh and i can read the site just fine, maybe i have good eyes, but anyhow, it's still the best site i've ever seen, even with the text.

well presented, annoying graphical sloppiness.

I am getting very bored with 'diehard fans/employees/groupies/annoying kids' plugging a particular site. It gets obvious when already twice the old and new 2Adv. site gets a+ marks.

Fantastic site. The blue monochromatic finish is excellent. Photography, ambience, transition between animations, originality, everything is amazing.

My only problem (as most people have) is with the small font face.

A trend setter in many respects. Don't forget to check out the portfolio.

Once this was a trendsetter, but compared to comtemporary sites it is aging.
Apart from that it is hardly original and the quality of some of the graphics leaves something to be desired.

Eric Jordan's style and techniques are mimicked throughout webbies everywhere. His command of Actionscript is commendable. Jordan has succeeded in creating "enviroscapes" for the web for some time - dark? It's meant to be - ellusive? He's achieved his goal.

Since his first site's debut, designers have been following his work - this new design leaves a certain amount to be desired - only due to high expectations - we were looking for something a bit "different" than his older look - as this version of his site is simply a more refined look, cleaner, faster & better, showing the evolution of his work. He has established himself a certain style & flair that keeps us coming back for more.
