Caps Is Fucking Annoying

emil · 05-07-2008, 13:47

And how come my message is edited (I typed all caps), but his isn't?

The site isn't bad, though.

emil must be in a good mood.

-I don't like the fade you have on your logo. And the Logo is just too big and annoying to read at that angle.
-There is a star overlapping "blog". I would remove it.
-The gradient and drop shadow on the headers looks out of place. The bullets look weird on the bottom aswell.
-This is what your site looks like in ie6
-You have two "W3C CSS Valid" buttons and they both lead to the checker and not to the page saying your site is valid how it should be.
-I would fix these if I where you.
-You have quite a variety of fonts. I would narrow it down a bit.
-The red part of the logo sticks out like a sore thumb.
-I don't like the shade of pink you have chosen but it's subjective. Personally for a portfolio site I would go with colors I know everyone likes.

That's it :P

EDIT: Your site isn't even valid css.

I've seen worse.

-You have quite a variety of fonts. I would narrow it down a bit. http://woidesign.com/image/right_back.png looks especially bad.
-Shouldn't the footer content be aligned with the main content on the left? Nothing is over there but the logo.

Why is it so hard for me to get some crits on the website?

Like you see how you wrote out that list for IISWILL? I just want somebody to write out a list like that.

I just want a crit-list

Anybody? Please? And don't do it in this thread because I don't want to take over his thread. Do it in this one please.

my first web design "job"

To anybody who does, thanks in advance.

emil · 06-07-2008, 11:24

His start is better than yours, though.

robdesign · 06-07-2008, 11:25

Alright, I'm going to just do it over, I don't like how its turning out anyway.

IISWILL · 06-07-2008, 19:31

How do you guys think about the black box on my site??

LukeV · 07-07-2008, 07:53

Looks much better, but!

Your site will not work in ie6. Too much transparency.
Get rid of the faded gradient you have on your logo...please!
A bit too much pink imo, but as stated above this is subjective.
You still haven't removed that star overlapping "Blog".

Anyways, I definitely think it looks better.

It is actually working in IE6, how about the logo now???

LukeV · 08-07-2008, 19:26

Hmm well I just tried it in ie6 and it crashed. Logo looks much better.
