Took Me Awhile. Bash/suggest/compliment

Recommended Posts

lol why did u mention my name in the description of this topic?!!? anyway, to be honest, i hate sites that are really compact. but i think u could improve urs by slightly moving the menu/buttons the left a bit, and expand the area for text so that there's isn't so much blank space for the background.. it's not too bad overall tho..

I like the site, but you should move the menu buttons over a bit, and on the home page, the This site is under construction please return perioticaly, that is an image? What if you want to update the page, you have to re-draw the image. But it is a good site all in all.

yes it is a graphic at the moment i am still learning how to use that style of layout and manipulate it the way i want. In the end i want that to be an I frame i guess which i can update with text hehehe

Just checked your website (template). Not bad, but the images took a bit of time to load. I have ADSL, but I could imagine how long it would take for someone who is still on dial-up....Just my 2 cents.

It's only a template? That's not really a website then. But I'll throw in my two cents in anyways. Well, I'll have to admit that that is a very nice-looking template. Very well done. It looks better than most CMSs!
There are only two problems I have with the design.

First, as someone before mentioned, the images take a little too long to load. I think I found a Javascript that let's you cache the images so that the images are preloaded every time you visit that particular page. I suggest going to http://www.htmlgoodies.com/ and looking for it in the Javascript section.

Second, having the links down on the bottom of the screen is okay, but maybe you could move it in that sidebar under the Feature box. Aside from the fact that it's only a template, and the two points I mentioned, it's a very appealing design. It would've been nice if it already had content, but that can be changed.

Nice! I'm liking the colour shades. As mentioned before, it takes a while to load and is rather image heavy. I guess you could optimise that by stretching/reusing the images throughout the design to cut loading time. The only thing I would say is that I don't care for the font too much. It seems to 'ordinary', you need a pixel font or something. That would make it look a lot cooler, IMO. The glowing/shadow effect makes it quite hard to read, also.Apart from that, nice design, and good work!- Vacant.

<td><div align="center"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="17" height="1" alt=""></div></td>

You don't need <div> tags inside your <td> for alignment - simply add align="center" to the <td> itself.

It looks pretty good. I'm not sure if I like the colours or not. It's a bit plain for my liking, but that could change once you get all your content in.The only thing that I would really change is that I would move the 'Menu' and 'Feature' menus over to the side and widen your main content window. There just seems to be a lot of blank space on the sides that isn't being used for anything, that you could make use of somewhere else.

Its a decent looking site, I think you should take out the glow effect on the "Stepping into the web", "teq1.info" and the copyright at the bottom. It just doesn't match with the rest of the layout. In total I'd rate it a 5/10. It's not amazing but its pretty good.

HiI like what you have done so far, unlike posters here, I do like the colors unless you changed them recently which could explain why they didn't like them.I would make the fonts a little bigger.Other than that, put some content in it and post again as content will change the whole look.Good luckPatrick

Like the look a ton. But why isn't there anything there? maybe it was messed up, or somthing. Cuz you have nothing there. Um, you have a great design and a great talent. Just keep building. I'm sure you had your share of time into that site. Looks great! :lol:
