I'd only suggest changing the font to better match the theme. Looks good, otherwise.

Thanks guys!

BTW: For thoughs that are wondering I designed it using CSS3, Gimp, and Inkscape.
The effects are created using CSS3, and JQuery.

I coded it all from scratch using Notepad++ on Windows, and Geany on Linux.

I already have the team page created, but I'm the only one listed at the moment, cause I haven't found anyone willing to help with the Android, or iOS sections. So if anyone's interested pm me, and I'll tell you what alternative's you'll be looking for. (Also if you can think of any to be listed feel free to suggest some)

I'll be making new layouts for Alternative Apps for the holidays as well. Not only will it give me something to do, but it'll keep things going.

Also I fixed some of the problems that appeared on Opera. However the site still looks like crap on Android phones (trying to figure out a fix). I don't have an iOS device yet so I don't know what my site looks like on thoughs. (If you could send a screenshot that'd be great)

I've been re-vamping my page and it's kinda of the same thing. Although I just has a touch of javascript and CSS3.

[url=http:/handlersspot.net/test]My test portal ...[/url]

I've been super lazy in getting this done! I found gimp chat and rest can go unsaid! If you notice the chrome splatter that was my very first real involvement here.

It works the best in Firefox .. will work in Opera, Safari and Chrome. Although if you use IE it won't look nice and I kind of prod you to get of the MS platform! *cheesy grin*

Graechan,
This might be overkill; Microsoft Expression Encoder (the free edition, 10 minute limit).

I've never had a problem with CamStudio, but I use the CamStudio Lossless Codec for screencasting. Without that I get problems. If you continue to get problems there are web based alternatives you may wanna checkout, but most of them are limited with time frames for screencasting.

Here's some others you may wanna checkout that are available for Windows. BB FlashBack Express, Jing, or TipCam. If none of thoughs fit your needs you may wanna take a look at this article.

For the zooming, and panning effects. I recommend recording the video in fullscreen, and then import the video into a video editor like Wax 2.0, Blender, or Lightworks.
