Which one?

[Akalon]

Which site design do you prefer the most? I designed a second because I thought the first one had way to much on one page and was a little large.

Thanks

I voted for #2. Even though #1 works perfectly fine on a 1024x768 resolution, it looks terrible on an 800x600. And I agree...it does a little busy and distracting. Even though it's prettier, I don't like to have to scroll to the right. I suggest you make the logo in #2 a bit flashier (not just plain orange), however.

Yeah, if you go straight to http://www.scopewebdesign.com on 800x600 there's a resolution redirector so 800x600'ers won't be able to get into that version, I never got around to creating a low-res version though. :p

If you are planning on designing sites then make it so all browsers are compatible :mad:

This site is optimized to Internet Explorer 5.x and 1024x768. Your browser is currently not capable of viewing this site correctly. Please upgrade to a newer browser so you are able to view this site along with many others.

:confused2

[Akalon]

Hah, yeah... I might make it netscape compatible.... stupid netscape doesn't support iframes. It works on Opera and Internet Explorer though.

I tend to disagree with you there Jan, designing a decent looking site to work in all browsers is nearly impossible; however, under the circumstances I believe Akalon did a fantastic job, on both the first and second designs.

Thankyou for reading my post, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did writing it. ..and yes, I'm eclipticzero, I'm terribly sorry for the pain and anguish caused over the previous week in this forum. I shall improve my vocabulary, and am willing to cooperate with both Moderators/Admins and Members.

Someone wishing to go into professional web design should indeed consider all browsers. I went to a site earlier, a business site, and all I could view was the menu, I clicked on another link and again all I could see was the menu. They lost my business! Tuff! C'est la vie :devious2:

I'll consider all browsers, I'm going to have a browser redirection javascript eventually that will take netscape users to a netscape version which I will have to create :(

i voted for number 1 in 800 x 600 when i scroll right theres just a big empty grey space
the colours go well its nicely layed out
well done

[eclipticzero]

bah!
..Considering all browsers is a great idea, but I really do think its nearly impossible to create a decent looking design and then to get it working in all browsers.

Opera and Internet Explorer are the ones I create it for, I've never attempted or even bothered to create a half decent design in Netscape, only because I cannot stand it.

They are both nicely designed websites but, I agree that #2 looks better. Everything is in order when I look at it in 800 X 600 resolution. #1 doens't look that great in 800 X 600.

Keep up the good job.
