  1. I looked at sxc.hu, seems usable - but they don't guarantee they are really legal to use I've used google images for my personal site, but it's not legal to "borrow" stuff for a commercial site. Well, it's not legal for a personal site either, but you know what I mean. Thanks to all for the suggestions. If anyone has any others let me know, thanks.
  2. You used to be able to buy clip art on CD for cheap, but I can't find anything locally anymore and online it seems expensive with all sorts of restrictions. Is there anything out there for a reasonable price that is usable for commercial websites?
  3. Ok, sorry, they are both typos... I should have been more careful. 1) input.hover, typo by me 2) .input:hover, typo by the website I copy/pasted the example from It's not javascript, it is CSS. I'm sorry for the confusion and my bad postings. It should be: <style type="text/css"> input { font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; color: #ffcccc; background-color: #ff0000; } input:hover { font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; color: #ff0000; background-color: #ffcccc; } </style> I hope I didn't screw that up too The trouble with this forum is they take away the ability to edit posts after a few minutes, so I never could fix my errors once I knew they existed. Thank you for bringing my errors to my attention
  4. Excuse me? CSS .input { border: 1px solid #006; background: #ffc; } .input:hover { border: 1px solid #f00; background: #ff6; } .button { border: none; background: url('/forms/up.png') no-repeat top left; padding: 2px 8px; } .button:hover { border: none; background: url('/forms/down.png') no-repeat top left; padding: 2px 8px; } It gives examples to input:hover THREE TIMES on that page and the sample form they show if you hover over the input boxes, in Firefox anyway, it changes from light yellow to dark yellow. Why are you being so snotty to me? Maybe it doesn't work in IE but it sure the heck does in Firefox. input:focus isn't shown, maybe THAT doesn't exist - I don't know, but I mentioned it because it was mentioned in the article I read awhile back when I was learning about that stuff. I don't use it in my form. EDIT: Ok, I see what you were trying to say in the snotty way you were saying it. It's input:hover (colon), sorry I typed period instead. All you had to do is correct my typo. I guess I should have cut/pasted it.
  5. What are input.hover and input.focus then? It works for me, in Firefox. says it's css here too, as well as numerous other sites. I know the style tag was incomplete, I was lazy, sorry, I didn't realize it would annoy anyone
  6. Ok, then use: <div style="text-align: center"><a href="">LINK</a></div> or make a class for it in CSS like racer x said.
  7. (can't modify my above msg...) Forgot to mention, textarea is also available.
  8. <style> input { font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; color: #0000ff; } input.hover { how it looks when hovering over the area } input.focus { add styles here } select { add styles here } option { add styles here } input, select, option { make all types use the same properties } </style> You can use border, color, background-image, font-size, etc. This works in Firefox, unsure about the others.
  9. Why not use DIV? <div align="center"> href/img stuff </div>
  10. Not exactly about CSS, just comments... I'd center the background image (background-position: center center), or position it where that long white bar divides the menu on the left with the content. I'm sure many will say the background makes it hard to read, but it does look nice A graphical header would be nice. I don't like how hovering over a link changes its size, it's annoying.
  11. I think the site looks fantastic. Are you sure those 20-30 visitors are REAL people and not bots? Do they read images, css, external js files? If they are real people, maybe your prices are too high? I don't know. Site works/looks fine, so it's not that IMHO.
  12. That's a great looking website, though I echo Ayon's statement about the volunteer section - it needs to at least have the header/menu above the form and try to keep it looking like the rest of the site. Fix that and I'd say it's as close to perfect as anyone should expect. Great job.
  13. It's pretty good, but some quick things I noticed... The header is slightly smaller than the main white area. Since the header's corners are rounded, you might want to do simular to the main box. Or, preferred, don't round the corners on the bottom of the header. You might want to use a border on the main area too. I'd make a divider between the side menu and the main content, maybe even make it gray or some easy color to seperate it from the main content. The content isn't centered on the page (as popcornplya said). You shouldn't set a fixed position as it varies based on people's screen size. Instead, fixing the box area size is okay, just have the browser "center" the content. Good otherwise, navigates well and easy to read/use, nice layout.
  14. I can't seem to modify my original post... I failed to mention that only works if you don't specify background-color in CSS. Instead you can use: var body = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0]; body.style.backgroundColor = color; in place of document.bgColor... Also, document.body.style.backgroundImage='none'; will remove the background image, if any was there.
  15. If you like the "steel plate" look fine, but it is a little boring to me, but I guess it depends on the application. It definately needs a graphical header to give it some appeal. Otherwise it's clean and useable.
