I'm relatively new with designing. (2 years - on/off)
I just think that there's a better way that I could sort my data and stuff on a site...

Language wise, I know HTML... with some CSS and some Java.

Anyways, any comments are appreciated.
Just tell me what you think:

http://monkeyblast.com

http://monkeyblast.net (not finished)

http://barelyvisible.com

http://monkeyportal.com/nav.html (VERY EARLY makings)


Any comments, thanks.

the one thing that threw me and it's nothing to do with design, just usability, was the music. you should never make music a mandatory thing. I didn't see a switch to kill it either. I'm listening to my iTunes. If i wanna hear what your website is playing, I'll click an icon to play sound.

Sounds is almost always a no-no on websites unless you are doing an online presentation like a web-commercial, or you can get away with it if it is a site highlighting a musician. Even then, I still don't like the mandatory music, like danedawg said.

The colors that you picked are incredibly harsh. A lot of contrast. I like the simple animation that you used in the Flash header of the first two sites.
