Furtherremixed [Flip The Switch 2.0]

Just from the first post it seems we just need Wonders Of The Deep and Don't Think remixes. I think I may be able to find a couple people outside of the forum who might be interested in doing a remix or two, though there is a huge chance they haven't even heard the songs.

I used the shorter intro and made it jump to the main page on it's own. It is about 2 seconds longer than the Flip The Switch intro but there is a 'Skip' button so once you've seen it you can just enter straight away. I also left the speaker image to mute it when clicked.
The main page just has some placeholder text. The text here will tell all about the project and the people doing it.
Audio page, I realise that not all of the tracks I put there are finished, they are just there for testing the player. Please keep in mind a week before I made this flash player I had never coded AS3 stuff before. Also my design skills are not the best so if someone else can come up with nicer spectrum images etc, that would be great. Also the visualisations are not that great, still experimenting with them. I did have them running by default and they ran no probs on my laptop, but then I checked them out on my home theatre PC and they clagged out, so you need an OK graphics card to view the particle ones. I love coding and I am happy with what I came up with, but I am not sure if it is good, or lame... feedback would be good.
Art page, I put all of the pictures up from the wallpaper page in the order that they were posted. If you don't want yours on the site, let me know and I'll take them off.

First page of the remixed website:-
This one - long version
Or this one - short version
I need a better font for the word "Remixed" ....
If we go with the longer intro I need a better sound snippet for the entry ....
I have done the main page after entering the site and the audio page. But I need some artwork, need pictures to represent "Don't Think" and "Pourqoui". Any artists willing to try? Mx, Whitenoise, Josse, ChemicalRudy .. anyone?
I am working on a custom player for each track, something like soundcloud but more visual, probably post something in a few days.
Love the progress that all of you guys are making. Nice site btw!

Nice! Really nice! I love the new player and the art page is great.
One thing - add some lines or boxes or something on the audio page to give it a little more structure. And maybe try to use the same font throughout the site. Otherwise, good job!
If you need any artwork for backgrounds, spectrums, links, whatever, I'll gladly help. I'm thinking the background of the site could do with some bubbles...

I love all the effort that's being put into all aspects of this, and the remixes are pretty slick too.
This is going to be mega when it's finished!

I am very busy at the moment so I won't get to do more for a little while, but you are right White Noise, something to break up the audio page is needed.
With regards to fonts, I worked out how to embed a font into a flash file, and tried to add a font that is close to the Further one. Hence it has different fonts to the website. With a website it will only show the declared font if it is installed on the users PC. No way to force a font to be installed. So basically I would have to choose a fairly standard font and use that on everything.
Bubbles will add a great touch to the background ... maybe a better heading image too?
I had a lot of fun making the player, I don't need to recompile it every time a track is added either, all of the tracks, names, color choices, spectrum and pointer images etc are loaded in from an xml file. I will need to work on some more visualisations though.

What language is the main page written in? It looks like Latin, but I'm going to guess that it is Spanish or Italian, since it is not French.
Pretty sure it's Latin. It is "Lorem Ipsum" which is placeholder text used to see how it will look when substituted with most western languages.
