Virtual picture gallery/shop, interactive "delve" browser, cross referenced data, lots of white space, lots of clicking and scrolling to get additional info, many features in this virtual art mall, very polished if a little slow, [but why cereal?]

Very attractive looking site, strong colour, set up as a fireworks splice site with each page composed of images therefore a little slow to download, laid out like a traditional museum in navigation, providing menu of choices of direction, following with sub choice, but as you reach each destination, the only way to get out is to back track, some cross links would be useful here and a search engine.

"Embark on a multimedia journey to the moon and back, from liftoff to splashdown." A shockwave presentation using original NASA images rescanned to improve quality. Beautiful series of pictures, atmospheric presentation, audio soundtrack. A simple slide show but unique in its material, very effective display, not very interactive.
