New Site Design. . .

[[~eVoL-ST~]]

Hey All,
I've just made up my new site design for Soultrance.org. I'd like to get some feedback on it. I'd like to hear especially how it looks in Netscape and how fast or slow it loads.

Thanks

First off all, there is a javascript error. Also the images at the main page are all cluterd.

mmmmm the images or bg is a bit on the skew and messed up, but nice to see another deviant art and pixel core member.
I was viewing in 1024x768 what resolution was it made in :confused:

[[~eVoL-ST~]]

It was made for 1024x768

majourity of people use 800X600 but it is switching to 1024x768

Because you tend to use Background Images in your tables/table cells, and the fact that you use Perent in the Table widths, your site looks very odd.

Here are the screenshots:

I really like the idea of the design tho. I hope you don't mind but i downloaded your site & some images, and I decided to see if I could fix it. I found that instead of using percent use pixel size in determining the width of the table. For example if your going to put a 500 x 20 background image in a table or table cell. Instead of making the table 40% or whatever as the width make it 500 so it'll show the background image correctly. OK I'm not really good at explaining what I do, but just check it out here (http://elcrapo.socialreject.net/SoulTrance.htm) and look at the code

bye

Your Welcome. Glad I could help. :)

Okay, Can you try it now and tell me how it looks ?

The enter page is ok now. But in the other page, there is a break between the article-top.gif & the article-middle.gif part of the table. Heres a Screenshot (http://elcrapo.socialreject.net/ss4.gif)

You have the table with the article-top.gif image as the background. The Code:


<table width="400" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="0" height="59">
<tr width="100%">
<td width="100%" valign="top" background="images/article-top.jpg">
<br><br>
<span class="article-title">
<div align="center">Welcome to Soultrance.org</div>
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

You have the cell padding set to 5 which causes that break between the two tables. Instead set the cellpadding to 0 and use this code:


<table width="400" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" height="59">
<tr width="100%">
<td width="100%" valign="top" background="images/article-top.jpg">
<br><br>
<span class="article-title">
<div align="center">Welcome to Soultrance.org</div>
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>


Just change that number 5 to a 0 and it'll look great.

G'Bye

Okay fixed.

Once again thanks a lot man. I never would have known it was all messed, at least not by the way people were describing it to me.

Thanks.
