lemad11 Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 nice ;) only thing i would change is the pics to the left and to the right .. maybe something that isn't as bright .. i think it pulls too much attention . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demoris Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 The space scene is fine. As to the layout part... yea. The context box/nav bar are very plain. Do some work to those instead of plain black with a pixel font (!!) Also, instead of using the same image on both sides of the content box, try adding in something where you can put the thumbnails there instead of throwing them in near the bottom. Do those changes and see how it looks. [try adding more color perhaps] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vladmoney Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 yea kinda what demoris said i think. But i dont know much about layouts, only made a few. Visit my DeviantArt Page at http://vladmoney.deviantart.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknownmasterofnothing Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 pixel font in the middle seems out of place. The space scenes are alright. The navigation bar could use more defing of the buttons, like seperate buttons for each word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Jeppoz Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 It's actualy an highlighted circular spot around some cloned groups of stars that are 2 close one another so that the overall result isn't that realistic...however minor problem i think. I like the work...but i'll fix a couple things : - The border images are 2 big, 2 bright and 2 boring...maybe add some elements in them , slim and darken so that they are more nice to see but less eyecatching. -I'd realy work on the font and expecialy on the bottons...i don't realy like them...lack of something.

bmagic Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 looks good but maybe a background and too much blue and black maybe make the top purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DementedHero Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Well, if I have to be honest, it isnt very good :( The layout is way to graphical, and the menu buttons, could use some work.. Dont just use a bar, filled with black and a white outline, and defenitly no pixel fonts in the menu bar ;) I know ur addicted to pixel fonts, but just try something else.. Give the layout some interesting shapes, because it now has the dull square shapes, which dont give it the interesting look.. The header is looking good on its own, but in a layout, it doesnt really work too well, unless you manage to work it into the layout a bit more, right now, it looks like just a header, not really a part of the layout.. This isnt ment negative, its ment as constructive critisme (sp?) , I hope you keep that in mind ;) And I hope it helps you.. But ofcourse, keeping in mind that it is your first layout, its not that bad.. Just go around the web, look at other layouts, study what they did to make the layout look good, like colour combinations, shapes, contrast, menubars, anything.. Just keep going i'd say, You'll get there ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 heres v2 :) it's a lot better i think, still thinking what to do to it though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vladmoney Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 The new one has like 3 different styles, which is really weird. I think it looks a little better then the old one but needs work. First pick one color, and pick one style. Visit my DeviantArt Page at http://vladmoney.deviantart.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo_bahumat Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 neat man, shows potential, i like the header, but one thing that i dislike is the trick and site of the day :D should be http://www.playonline.com and something like a double kickflip, i wouldnt call an ollie a trick, more of a basic manouvre :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
