Tell me what you guys think...

hm... first impressions are good, the header looks about 1px off to the right (maybe thats just me?)

i like the simplicity, but perhaps a different font? you said you wanted a professional site...

oh and on that note, please dont you the word \"teh\" on a professional site

/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />

also the text saying \"[b]the[/b] content box\" may not be needed. people will know what it is

hope im not being too critical

Your not...I love the ideas...But i cannt be too professional...its just not my nature O=)

to@ds · Post by **to@ds** » Thu Jun 01, 2006 5:51 pm

Yeah, more of the same. If you going to make a "profesional" site, the word "teh" has no place(Is there really a place for leet speech ever?). You said you can not be to profesional, which isnt really a good trait, especialy if you were hoping to use your site to drum up business. If people dont know what "teh" is, they are just going to think you cant spell (and yes I know mine is pretty bad).

In your background section you didnt make it so we could full screen any of your backgrounds and admire them in full view, and some of them looked pretty cool! Same goes for your banners, sigs and web templates.

Id also agree on the text too, just dosent seem to fit right. Maybe try something abit more stylish, slightly more clean looking. Id also addvise bringing more colour into your page, what colour, Im not sure, maybe red if you can get it in. You could also think about creating a kind of logo, or do abit more work on the top banner of the site to make it abit more interesting, it all seems to wash into each other.

Not a bad effort though man, keep at it

Much the same as Tami and To@ds, and the header is slightly offline.

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Fri Jun 02, 2006 8:40 am

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Mon Jun 05, 2006 11:53 am

Thank you! =) The only problem im having with my new template is a php comment system for my blog. I have one set up but for some reason when i go to log in it wont accept the logon information i gave when its the same information i put in the config.php that i used...weird

why thank you =D

Only thing I don't like is the top banner, not that there is anything wrong with it. That's just personal taste. Everything else is really good.

Post by **Marko** » Mon Jun 05, 2006 9:58 pm

Don\'t get me wrong I like the website, however to me it doesn\'t say professional.
Just my 2c.

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Tue Jun 06, 2006 8:00 am

Okay i did another design. I like this one alot better then my last once. I incorporated some color into this one. and some different images. tell me what you think about this one.(i know these are getting boring)

Post by **Marko** » Tue Jun 06, 2006 9:10 pm

I think that one\'s the best so far. Nice, simple, clean

R4PTOR · Post by **R4PTOR** » Thu Jun 08, 2006 6:44 am

I like this one alot more, however the choice of text is quite poor in my oppinion. That's the only thing I don't like, the rest is really good. Best one so far.

Looks good, allthough I would\'t put those thingies next to theJoe Burton banner. Just leave it with the snowwy landscpae

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Sun Jul 02, 2006 9:36 am

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Wed Jul 05, 2006 12:27 pm

Okay heres another update. I put a little more thought into design and coding and all my other templates and i came up with this one. Once i get all the bugs worked out with the design i play to code it with a little CSS and PHP. Tell me what you guys think about this one [attachment=2398:attachment]

Gadget · Post by **Gadget** » Wed Jul 05, 2006 1:05 pm

Its pretty cool. i dont really like the ".:" after the links, and i think you should lose the scanlines on the header.

But all in all a pretty nice site

Sylo-X- · Post by **Sylo-X-** » Wed Jul 05, 2006 1:39 pm

Alright, Dropped the scan lines, Also dropped the ".:" after the links on the navigation and fixed the 1px difference between the two content boxes. [attachment=2399:attachment]

Gadget · Post by **Gadget** » Wed Jul 05, 2006 4:58 pm

yeah it looks alot cleaner and better now

Okay. Ive finally ditched IFrames!!!!!! And now ive done some coding with tables...scence i learned how to use them the right way. My next step will be CSS to make my pages a little nicer. But yeah. Its coded in pure HTML.

Nice work, I like the idea, but I think that there might be a tad too much red

/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> anyway, yeh nice work.
