Wow!

I had no idea--I mean NO idea--about the new launch. I saw the "image" of the old (that feels weird..."old") site, and wrinkled my brow. Then the site started breaking down! I was sad! Then, halfway through my letter to the webmaster, trying to report this technical glitch, the car full of Muppets came out of the screen, and the new site was there.

WOW. What an improvement.

Congratulations to everyone involved.

...and I've only seen the home page. I've not clicked on any link, yet.

Okay, I've now refreshed frontpage.shtml over 30 times now to see if I can start getting repeated grouped characters... and I can't seem to so far. I don't know who's more insane: me for doing this, or Jaime for having designed so many marquees.

145 characters are included in the main menu so far. :big_grin: And yes, I am insane.

Congrats on the new look guys - it's awesome! I love the themed marquees, Jamie did you create all the backgrounds for them from scratch or lift them from somewhere?

Bravo... Encore! .. Encore!

As a web designer who works in multimedia myself, I can very much appreciate the cohesive design and usability of the new site and it is outstanding! Well Done.

Large sites get very tedious - especially when you are updating several Navigation Bars. I can only imagine how long all the fine-tuning and meticulous workings took to conceptualise and complete.

I also love the random character 'surprise' element on afew of the navigation bars.

Do you get any messages or commendations from the people at Jim Henson Co. for working so hard?

Love your work! :big_grin:

Cheers,

mango
