~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Oct 9, 2002, 07:36 AM

Ok this is my frist that i have ever created.
http://www.sourcer.0catch.com/index.html I know that need some work i just ran out of energy today and need some sleep after i clean up the graphics around the text box ( u have to scroll down a bit to see them i set them to low and tp far to the left) it will be fixed and centered and more added. The links are not oprational yet i havent time to make anything but the index.htm page so far. But anyway please have a look and give me some good honest opionons.

UberLord · Oct 9, 2002, 01:18 PM

e-Seeker · Oct 9, 2002, 04:10 PM

Nope, I still can't load the page... Try serving it somewhere else... [oc, if you want me to see it

]

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Oct 9, 2002, 04:50 PM

huh i dont know why u cant see it? does it give 404 or what?

Zardon · Oct 9, 2002, 04:57 PM

the page opens fine here.

merry · Oct 9, 2002, 06:02 PM

What's this? (last lines of the htm):

Quote:

And if you use that bitmap for the background, you can add this to the body tag (though I think it only works in ie): [color=cyan]BGPROPERTIES="fixed"[/color]. Still... 460KB for the bg bitmap...

Check the spelling [color=cyan]right not[/color]

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Oct 9, 2002, 07:41 PM

yeah i have a smaller .jpg that i need to upload and link it to its the same BG only like 100kb though anyone and a good free asp/dhtml shoutbox?

e-Seeker · Oct 9, 2002, 07:47 PM

FINALLY I got to see it...

Ehmmm, one question first - are you up to hardcore criticism?

It took too looooong to load, which is related with a massive background... That kinda sux...
Think about a different color scheme... nothing too psychedelic...
Yup, check your spelling (second post up), and you might want to link your E-Mail address...

Well, I could go on, but that would really destroy all the fun in creating your own site, and then again - it wouldn't be your site anymore...

btw. feel free to Mail me if you have any question, or whatever...

nJoy!

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Oct 9, 2002, 08:33 PM

yeah i didnt have to check spelling or link the addy yet i will though tonight i will get the smaller BG in there and ready go and make some pages for the site and add some content.

Malus · Oct 10, 2002, 06:06 PM

Kill the background, please.

e-Seeker · Oct 10, 2002, 07:37 PM

YEAH, KILL it!

It's big and it's bad (IMO)!

Smoothdrive · Oct 11, 2002, 03:25 PM

Euhm...well..euhm..the design sucks big time, the background tiles don't connect at all..look like my first windows 95 desktop or something ..colours.well lets say a matter of taste and it's not my taste..Menu looks fine so i take it you copied & pasted that just tweaking colours and links..euhm..the logo you made is pretty much ok for a first time

Sorry buddy..but you asked for my honest opinion.

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Oct 12, 2002, 07:01 AM

Yeah wasnt really aiming for anything to high and mighty and its not like its a prority just somthin to miss with hell i still dont have any content or anything to even put in it. Will get better when i have more free time on my hands to use.

merry · Oct 14, 2002, 09:37 AM

Listen, we don't want any of your excuses, we just want to see it get better, so start working on it

Kelsenellenelvian · Oct 14, 2002, 10:19 AM

reno · Oct 28, 2002, 05:02 PM
