rarebit Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I've recently changed the theme of my new site and i'm a bit unsure. It was orange and the font was 'lighter', so i've made it somewhat bolder, using blue and red. Not that I dislike it, but I don't prefer it. However at least the forum isn't orange now (a bit off putting me thought): http://www.lovemap.co.uk If you need to subscribe this code 'FREE_FREAK_6' will give you 6 months for free (also without inputting ant cc details).

sKunKbad Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 You should implement a sticky footer. Non-sticky footers don't look professional. Also, you should apply a max width for the page, and center it on-screen.

rarebit Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 mmm, i've been discussing the sticky footer, but not so sure about the centred bit, other sites I do, but I feel not on this for some reason?

slapdashgrim Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 also i would like to add that that gradient in the header hurts my eyes. try colors that blend better or to shades that are closer. i don't know about anyone else but it is the only thing my eyes could focus on.

Maq Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 rarebit, do you happen to have a link to your old design? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126077-bolder-but-is-it-better/#findComment-652655 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rarebit Posted September 29, 2008 Author Share Posted September 29, 2008 This is only a half developed and not really as yet public page, but theres a shot of the homepage here: http://media.monkies.co.uk/portfolio.html Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/126077-bolder-but-is-it-better/#findComment-652862 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rarebit Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 Normally I don't have an issue making the page full height. I use the style & height method in-conjunction with a table and it works fine, however I had issues this time for some reason. I did a little searching and found and did this: html, body { height:100%; } Which sort of solved my problem, but now the page is just slightly too long! Any suggestions?
