it's nice but like most people have commented on, it's more about showing off graphic skills than producing a site that will maximise sales for the client.

And it's not a porn vs mainstream thing either, that style of site design performs poorly in mainstream too. Go look at the top mainstream sites and tell me what you see, simplicity.

It's easy to get seduced by Flashy edgy hip designs, you gotta have one for your own but they don't work nearly as well as simple HTML sites with some quick loading graphics to spice it up.

Flash 'bricks' are ok, they can give a site some pizzaz, but that's their only purpose.

Nice work though Dreammache. A bit derivative but i guess that's the nature of all design trends.
