Re: Midnight Design

yah, what're you talking about atomic? html skills? it's one big image in the middle of a page with a background color.

i told you on AIM...it looks okay, nothing incredible...kinda cliché, but it works. though, those black blurs are kinda nasty looking...but that could just be my monitor.

Re: Midnight Design

marginally confused by the transcendence suggested by the banner
kind of a lofty goal for a website?
you could argue that dreams are already/were/will be reality though

and yah, try to get sarcasm in a goddamn text message. fones are stoopid

Re: Midnight Design

50% of all things read on the internet is misinterpreted. Can't remember where i read that, but i did.

You pretty much can't convey sarcasm via text alone. there is no tone to text. People have tried with various was, [sarcasm] for example... its netiquette people

Re: Midnight Design

The black blur was a test on behind the frame of the layout. I just wasn't sure if I should remove it or not, but I will now. As for the coding I need to get my ImageReady working, as I cannot code myself. ImageReady does all the HTML work for me in like a split second. I just need to figure out how I'm going to insert things into the page. As for the slogan in the banner, that was the old Team-Midnight slogan. If you have a better suggestion, by all means post it. I didn't really want to use it as it seems rather corny. But I added it as filler, same with the BG in the banner part itself. I may or may not end up changing it.

But I will remove the blur from behind the layout, and if anyone can give me a better slogan to replace the current one, I will gladly update my page with it.*

Re: Midnight Design

I was making fun of:

HTML Code:

<body bgcolor="262626"><center><img src="index.jpg">

Because there's not even <html> or any closing tags or anything.

I personally love coding things out. I only use Dreamweaver for the auto-complete and super easy file management stuffs.

Re: Midnight Design

Design wise, it's very trend whore. Try minimizing the use of font reflection. Save that for the website title font only.

What else could I do with them? I mean I could leave them basic but it looks out of place imo...*

Re: Midnight Design

Well personally, I wouldn't use images to display headers. It's going to use more bandwidth, and also be a negative towards your search engine results. I would stick with plan text in those areas, then with the addition of content, the page should pull together nicely.

Something else, IMO, I don't think the Calendar or shout box will need titles over them once they are actually in place, they are pretty self explanatory, and the text just creates unnecessary gaps and makes it less fluid for the eye.

Re: Midnight Design

using images doesnt take up too much bandwidth. What you want to do is use correct markup and structure your document accordingly.

<h1>'s big header (usually page header)
- use once
<h2>'s for sub sections... ext...

then you can style the headers how ever you want and it will look alot better

Bandwidth meh, but it can affect loading times, especially on slower connections.
