Nadril Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 http://www.zackcerny.com Finally got my own domain name and everything set up today, pretty happy about it. I'm planning on making it look a bit better -- right now this is probably just version 1 (which granted was a pretty quick version, due to having the time constraint of my college final). Any comments or criticism is welcome. Feel free to comment on the code if you will too, it was my first time dealing with tags, big thanks to errodoth for teaching me them. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I'll expand this later, but just at first glance, your portfolio button image is broken :P EDIT: Your images don't seem to be aligned properly. The first row looks fine but the second row is far too high up - it's not centered in the box. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 odd, everything works fine for me (and when I tested it on another PC). I'll take another look into it. As far as the alignment they look fine to me, I guess I could move it down a little bit. PS: I don't have the "blog" part of the site up yet so that's why it won't have a link.

The image is broken only on: http://www.zackcerny.com/ But it looks fine at http://www.zackcerny.com/index.html :? EDIT: Now it's fine on both :P And now the alignment looks fine :lol: Did you change it since I posted? Or did it magically fix itself?

I assume you use IE tripsis? And I haven't done anything to the alignment lol, who knows what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Looks fantastic. Minimalistic design has really worked well here! Though, I have noticed that the Lightbox app doesn't load very well. 2257AD.TUMBLR.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Everything seems to be looking good. The lightbox seems fairly silly because your images are fairly large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Speaking of lightbox.. you should group the images to enable the "Next" and "Previous" buttons. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Everything seems to be looking good. The lightbox seems fairly silly because your images are fairly large. Yeah I was debating about that one. It obviously works well on my monitor (1680x1050) but I can see it being a problem on smaller resolutions. I might try and shrink the images later, or even shrink them and include download links to the full size wallpaper under it. (if that is possible in lightbox). Looks fantastic. Minimalistic design has really worked well here! Though, I have noticed that the Lightbox app doesn't load very well. Could you elaborate a bit on the lightbox not loading well? Chances are it's the large image size of some of my images (like a few mb for the large wallpapers). Speaking of lightbox.. you should group the images to enable the "Next" and "Previous" buttons. It's a good idea. I was originally planning on using the "next" and "previous" buttons for anything that has multiple view points. For example if I had a level I had designed I could show off different sections of it. I may do what you said though, it all depends really.

Estonian dude Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Pfft. No artist info. You need moar new stuff up there! The page itself is very nice, I aint got any problems with it. So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipkjooo Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Im going to comment on the code if you dont mind :P Its really clean and well laid out, CSS looks nice as well. You used divs to create a table-like structure, however, I would recommend trying to use more HTML text etc, instead of all images, just to decrease the load times a bit. Other than that, great job :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipkjooo Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Your little logo thing at the top could goto HTML text fairly easily. And yeah you dont have too much text really, but when you work on the blog page etc, you should aim for HTML text :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Yeah certainly. I'm thinking I'm going to get to work on my blog section soon, which I'm going to be trying to do in an entire different style (I sort of have an idea in my head). My goal is to keep the minimalistic feel of it but to have it just simply look better and more engaging. Now that I know about tags more so I can design the site with that idea in mind. Hell I'd do a flash based site if I knew much about it, but I don't feel like learning flash right now. Could be nifty though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipkjooo Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Flash = fun :) If you need flash help, I could give you a hand :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 It might be worth it, think I'll look around for a copy of flash. Would be a great thing to have on my resume as well. Any good beginning tutorials for web design in flash? I've only ever animated with it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Great CC. Yeah I have no idea wtf in the code is making it missalign all of the sudden (didn't change anything) but needless to say I'm more worried about the new design now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
