**edit** i plan on adding a banner just above the line that goes along top of the page
what is it gonna be about anime?
no idea it might be heh
heh i am starting not to like it myself loks kinda tacky
that is just merely an interface, not a complete layout.
anyway, using shadows on a website isn't really my thing. personally, i prefer clean, simple, and 2d styled layouts.
eg. this
that is my old website layout.
yea plain and simple is always best take mut@t@'s old one very nice and simple ^_^
The images dont load in firefox, might want to look into that. Always good to make sure your website works in all browsers.
woah......you're right......they're just <img> tags though so i dont know why mozilla would have problems with it.....but its messin up on mine as well......Originally posted by: Santah

weird.....

jing: there's nothing wrong with added depth to a site.....its all about the execution
EDIT: oh i know why....its because you used backslash instead of forwardslash for your image urls

I don't like the 3dness. its just like popping outta the screen effect doesn't suit a page. i'd go 2d aswell.
it think it looked cool but that gradient thing or whatever it is doesnt look all that good, you should probably skip that.
It looks too photoshoped, and doesn't feel like an actual page. The problem is color choice, and blending with the page. The actual layoutis fine, but with the shadows the interface doesn't feel like it's part of the page. Not like this is easy to tell in the first place as you only have a white background. Keep working at it.
usually the way i go about designing a website is to
1) open up photoshop, and create a new canvas thats 1024x768 (or 800x600 whichever you feel is more appropriate)
2) experiment with background designs, columns, header graphics/logos, color schemes, etc. until ive filled the page with a complete look that i like (also while taking into account the practicality of converting it to an html page, quality vs filesize, appearance from different size monitors, and many other factors)
3) chop up the layout using the knife tool in such a way that the contents would fit nicely into a table (or div layouts if you use css)
4) using dreamweaver or some other html editing tool, remove images that act as placeholders for text content (and if they arent a solid color, then make it a bg for the cell/div instead).
5) then put in your content, set up your links, duplicate the page a few times and repeat [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

i am kinda iffy on the color scheme
Still can't be viewed in Firefox.
man that bugs me why wont it work in fire fox
egad bright blue run away
lol who says "egad"?
i can view the layout...its simple, and the blue its nice
its er a too blue seriously oo blue hahaha and its looks tacky add interfces and stuff
yeh the blue is painful to the eyes, you want something thats viewable for longer periods of time
yeah you should probably use a different colour then the blue..
but other than that it looks good.
