Just checked out the new website and it looks like Rocky took the website to the next level. Even has a little Rocky standing in a field. Great stuff, I will look around it more tonight.

One thing to add thats kinda interesting is in his part about the Edge he says he uses a filler from a "secret country." Well if you saw that and are wondering the country is Bangledash(<spelling) I don't know if anyone cares to know that but I saw a youtube video of him with Kris Baso a Miami shop owner where Rockey tells him where the Edge filler comes from.

I was just over there....and....I hate to say this....but, I didn't like it....a couple of things came to mind...it loads real slow, probably because of the additions like the carousel, and graphics - the growing tobacco plant? and of course housing Rocky....as a user, I never like an inside scroll for text I'm supposed to read...and as a user, there were too many actions required of me to get at the information...I'd want to see more on the product or events, but everything was just too busy....and as far as the audio, I'm at work, and I haven't a clue as to what Rocky was saying..."mute"

sorry RP...

It is an improvement over the last two versions.

One downside of using all flash is that you can not link to a certain page, or if you press your back button, you have to reload the whole thing again. You can build a site that has flash elements on seperate HTML pages, which I think is better.

FYI:

RP likes to jokingly say that the special leaf of tobacco in certain blends is from "Bangladesh" so that his competition doesn't know from which country or growing region that leaf hails. That's Rocky for ya.

Very professionally done. Nice place to come to if you have some time to look. I have remote controlitis where I feel the need to change channels every 5 seconds.

Yeah.. Rocky is a strange bird.. he cracks me up.

Site looks good, but I agree with ShrtCrt, I prefer sites built with standard code containing flash elements over a fully flash site.

Not only for usability, but also for SEO.
