Still working on it

Hi guys.

I have been working on this site for maybe about 2 weeks on and off.

Spire Concepts: Professional Graphic design in South Florida.

this is a link to the css.(might be a bit heavy since as I mentioned I am still learning)

http://www.spireconcepts.com/Css/stylesheet.css

I am new to the world of css/html so it's been a bit slow as I do and redo and redo things.

I really need some feed back from someone with more experience in this field right now since I am mostly done.

All the text is going to be changed those are just placeholders. But I was looking for feed back on the layout etc..


Thanks in advance.


Edit: By chance I just saw the dummy text creator but its a bit after 2:30 am and I am about to head to bed I will add some dummy text tomorrow

this has a very outdated feel. this is probably due to both the colours and the gradiants. i suggest making it more fresh looking.

Yoyi - as for your css:
* you can write style rules much shorter and clearer than you do now.
For example, instead of typing everywhere
margin:0; padding:0;
you can write once: * {margin:0; padding:0;} - it's the rule for every tag and block on your page.
* You defined the same font-family for many tags. You can do it once:
H1, H2, H3 {...} It may help you in future changes of the stylesheet.


* It looks like you tryed to use just "web-safe colours". Get rid of this prejudice and use more bright colours.

Good luck!

Thanks for the input so far.

I will remove the borders and see how it looks.

I will try to clean up the css a bit later but for now I want to try to get the layout looking kinda ok.


Messing around with some colors....
