Do PingMag know you're using their photos?

And did you really mean this? " BDI Media are compassionate about web design"

Why should we not be compassionate !!!!!

who are your target market?

Quote:

no illusion - just results.

just results. as a client i'd want a little more than 'just results'. i don't want to hear the phrase 'exceeding client's expectations' ever again but the root of it is a fairly good argument.

that flash 'thing' doesn't make sense. read it yourself and tell me what it means. the typography in it is terrible. if you're going to give a message such prominent white space, at least make it pertinent to your market and make sense.

the first bit of copy on the site is about building a sitemap. is that really what your intended audeince will want to read about?

and who gives a monkey's about google sitemaps in xml? why is it such a prominent feature on your home page?

there's too many things on there that have been 'plonked' (and yes, that is a technical term) on just to fill space it seems. print this page - i've already got a fucking print button in my browser. the copyright notice is from 2004.

i don't like those arrow animated gifs. they're really distracting. the body copy changes from page to page in positioning, colour, size and format. i like continuity. this seems a little disjointed.

what's with the apple?

i do like the models representing the online build process.

Since the DOTCOM crash in the 90's...

if you're going to pretend that you were around during key phases of the internet's development then at least get your dates right.

there's a superb paragraph of bullshit on this page: http://www.bdimedia.com/about.htm

'once upon a time....' etc - what a load of cock. if you're targeting local markets then don't write your copy like you're international superstars.

you asked for feedback fuckhole. that was all valid. don't expect anything more in the future. sigh...

cody44 · 15-01-2006, 15:39

Dont mention that the site is validated to w3c standard with no errors. If you need help validating your site BROWN let me know...........sure I can get rid of your 47 errors !!! Just a thought...............

oli · 15-01-2006, 15:46

haha you cock, you asked for feedback and didnt like what you heard.
People were just trying to help.

Your sites shit, that constructive enough for you ?

Brown · 15-01-2006, 15:47

validation means cock-all if its not functional in the first place. you seem to know this from the copy on your site. don't start throwing toys around, take note of good, free advice. if you want someone to say it's all good then ask your mum.

Brown · 15-01-2006, 15:48

haha, evening mr o.

smallbeer · 15-01-2006, 15:50

seriously dude, you are mental.

your code is shocking, the 'design' is all over the place, and the copy is laughable.

constructive feedback went out the window. you're a cock.

oh, and mr brown. incase you haven't seen it before

LOL....................Hey, thanks for all the positive feedback. That will give me something to work on. Great bunch........!!!

cody44 · 15-01-2006, 16:03

On a serious note BROWN you could cut your errors down to 5 if you take the embedded tag out of your flash code!! Dont forget your trying to work to XHTML standard, if it doesnt work you might as well go back to html.

Brown · 15-01-2006, 16:10

oh dear.

a genuine credit to the source could have justified it.

i still think it should have used lego men.

His code might be valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional (Transy Pansy!), but it's still awful, inaccessible, nested-table tag soup.

Valid XHTML is meaningless unless you know how to write good code.

Case in point (CSS off):

What are those? Dashes to create borders?
