What about little old me?

[DarkBlood]

Don't I get a topic for discussing my own site? Well, of course I do... and I've certainly earned it! However, if you're wondering where all my flash/programming stuff is, you're sadly mistaken... I put quality + functionality + Dial-Up compatability over everything else, so my site's pretty low-fi at the moment... so feel free to point and laugh.

URL (Site) = http://dbop.t35.com/

Please rate accordingly, and please give me new ideas.

forum url taken out.

Well, its basic, easy to load, and the colours match.. id say.. 6.5/10???
Why not have 2 sites, one with the fancy smancy flash and one for the 56kers..

Because I am a 56k person, and that would take a lot of time to upload... and I don't think some of the files would fit under 29X KB as a filesize.

I understand you and many others out there are on dial ups, but that doesn`t mean that you can`t have a great looking site, the header IMHO is far to big, you have a good name and slogan, they need presenting better, the colours kind of blend but come across as alittle dull, not much else to say really, more content needed, well done so far and good luck. :)

What resolution does your screen show on web-pages? Because my logo is set to 100%, and that was an accident... it's fixed now.

Despite the stated audience of dial-up users, this site took a very long time to load. I suspect it was the attempt to display popup crud battling with my client-side software's attempt to not display popup crud. In any case, sort of defeats the purpose of keeping the HTML lean and mean, IMO.

The text on the page is very small, and refuses to obey my IE preference setting of View|Text Size|Largest.

There's a blank space of nearly 1/5 the entire page right after the topmost box.

The <title> tag could be better written, from an SEO point of view. I assume that at least "RPG" is a relevant keyword. I spotted no <h1> tag, so there's another opportunity for SEO awaiting.

The HTML is broken. </td> used where </th> was required.

I nkow all of these faults my friend. I used spacer TH's in place of TD's... as the TD's (if used in place of the TH's) would result in bad markup... also, the 1/5 blank space is a spacer TH.

Also, I use external CSS, which overrides browser-defined settings.
