Heartless Creations have a look around :)

http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (it is a trap site)

At the bottom of the page it has news and details about the release so it tells you what works and what is comming and when.

I know there are a few thigns i need to get sorted in the gallery, and Firefox doesn't want to laod the background of my site, even though i would have thought the simple CSS of background image would be fine.
I cna however solve this issue by sticking the CSS style at the top of every page, opposed to having it as an external file, which is a pain in the *bottom*.
firefox also renders the gallery wrong as well. . . .

and don't get mention validation. . . . i really don't know much about it and don't understand what i've done wrong etc.

BUT, if anyone lives in Europe you can visit the store and buy some stuff, as thats all ready to go

enjoy

Wow I thought it was a site that telling about how heartless people create tools and stuffs to ill-treat other people or animals. It was your own site instead. Not a bad look but there's relatively nothing inside. Probably you need to add the features soon and probably articles on "Heartless Creations" for what it really means...Nice Xisto logo there too...

great site, I particularly like the holy *BLEEP* bag....great design as well, nice big logos, easy on the eye.Good luck with selling stuff!

Your site is very slow loading because of the images but I love the images. Lemme fix up your CSS issue. Your current background code is:

background-image: url(BG.gif);

Try this instead:

background: transparent url(BG.gif);

You might also want to try setting a repeat or fixing it in position, depending on what you want. For example to have your image repeat along the y axis of something (top to bottom), add:

repeat-y;

And for things like repeating vertically, add:

repeat-x;

And here's how you fix it in place.

fixed no-repeat;

Enjoy!

thankx for the help biscuitrat.But i've deceided to go for some graphic changes.and also try and create my site around the new Joomla! CMS.Doing this will mean i can publish articles, news etc alot faster.It will take longer to get sorted but i believe it'll be worth it, if i cna get it soryted. . .

You did a great job! Really nice website!I want to see it when you'll finish :PCheers!

That would rock. Let me know how it works out

I'm certainly not the first person to ask when it comes to reviewing a website, but it does look nicely layed out. A little more content is in order, but the actual layout is great. Surprisingly, it loaded very fast on my stone-age 56k connection.

Looks pretty good! The buttons might be a tad bit flashy (i.e., the "apply" links), and you have a break in your side borders (I think that was mentioned above). Also, just curious, have you thought about moving up to XHTML??

I loved it!...and am a bit jelouse as well.....IT didnt load too slow for me so i am assuming you used the suggestions to have it load faster. Very good all around

cheers for all the crits/praise, you are all further expanding my ego (jk )i am still trying to find ym away round mambo b4 deceiding for sure to transfer over to that CMS.also the graphic changes are bassicly jsut colour changes. . . think lime green and blood red expect a progress post soonish!

Careful on the contrasting colors. I really like the varieties you picked out, but all things in moderation and moderation in all things or however that goes.Lovely silver you've picked out though. Tres bien!

Ah, you finally finished it (well so far )I have been away for quite a while so i dont know how long its been this far, though i remember the splash page with coming soon :ph34r:Love the site, big fonts is what i dont like, but its a preference so i wont be judging it.Very simple, modern design, but my suggestion here would be to remove the gray background, if you remove it, it will display round edges, wich complies to your smooth design, basically thats the only suggestion i have, love the color schemes aswell

the creativity bug has hit me again . . . i'm currently redisgning for the THIRD time. . . dam it. . . .oh well. . . BUT! this time i'm pretty sure i'll stick with it till its done!I've got most of my graphics and style working as a theme in mambo and getting used to all the content management :Pit will be sweet when its done. . . . soon i'll stick up a new splash page, he he. . commign soon YET again lol

Remember that all great layouts don't look too difficult, yet load fast for viewers on slower connections. Otherwise, I really like how it is so far. Just fix up the load time and it'll be absolutely great.
