I was expecting FLV inclusion for the intro and a highly interactive 3D environment.


Or maybe I was just avoiding working on my report.

Maybe just let the text a second or two before fading it out! Those four lines of text seems to be talking by themselves anyway -- no need of big effects and sounds that make us think that he pushed on every effect button poosible! Nah I think it sets the ambiance well. But a little background music that would fit the animation would be  cool!

Yeah, the text faded in and out too fast.  And the next line of text should start so that at some point it's the same non-black color as the text that is fading out.

This is just my opinion you understand.

I'd keep that to myself if I were you.

In all seriousness, how about a little thunder clap or suspensful music or something for the text appearing?
