Wow, man this is awesome. Very very nice and clean, and the coding is awesome. Damn, you're getting good. - Gac
I really like what you've done with this. Thick borders don't usually come off very well on websites, but yours look really good. This will be such an amazing site once you've polished it a bit. Some suggestions: 1) The header's nice, but needs work. The fuzzy flower vector would look so much better if you cleaned it up, or re-did it (using the original as a template of course). Also, the relection on the text is a nice idea, but a bit much and the text seems a bit far to the left. Perhaps, move the whole text 5px right and vertically resize the reflection (there's no reason why it has to be the same height as the main text). Just an idea - there's probably many other things you could do with it. The key is to keep it classy, but not to distract from the actual text. 2) The links are really quite hard to read. They need to be quite a bit darker. The difference [in colour] between your text and links really only needs to be enough so that it is noticable. You'll probably need a bit of trial and error to get the colours sorted so they're just right. 3) The background seems to be clashing a bit with the green bars. Something darker perhaps? Maybe even a lighter shade of the green. Again, trial and error will be the key to getting the colours to blend really well. 4) Don't put a 'Valid XHTML' link on until your page is valid! ^_^ I hope that did not discourage you. Keep up the good work. EDIT: Just checked browser consistency and your site renders very poorly in IE6 I'm afraid. You might want to check that out when you update next.
lmao thanks valid xhtml is like default. will have to remove that. Guess I will get back to tweaking it
the site seems a little dull I think. Perhaps adding something more to make it a little flashy? Also I noticed that the dashed lines just left of the navigation are messed up. I think this might be because I'm in IE but all the same, check it out. Besides that I love it! It is VERY clean which I love, so keep up the great work.
Like the new banner. It's a LOT better. Maybe decrease the opacity of the reflection a bit? I'ts still a little distracting. I'ts improving a lot. Browser consistency is still a bit off though.
can you tell me what inconsistancys there are. my banner overlaps in firefox :s the search is on 2 lines in IE
Those two that you mentioned, plus the content box is wider in IE; no bullet points in IE; padding on the bottom in FF. Search button text has no padding in Opera. (Must point out that I'm using IE6, not IE7). If you use a Mozilla based browser then there's a great extension called IE Tab, that makes this sort of thing really easy: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/
