JasonLewis Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Okay I threw together another design. I like this one a fair bit actually. Has a good feel to it. http://jasonlewis.vndv.com/beta/ What does everyone think? Anything you think should be changed? Thanks for looking.

ILMV Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 * Use META tags * On my 22" widescreen the header is way over on the left, the links are way over on the right, also the footer links have no logical position. * Design is ok I guess, perhaps others have some opinions Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/132545-another-design/#findComment-689217 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonLewis Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 * Use META tags I will in due time. * On my 22" widescreen the header is way over on the left, the links are way over on the right, also the footer links have no logical position. Hm, yeah I didn't really position them towards the center. I'll change that up now. Also, what do you mean the footer links have no logical position? I'm re-positioning them now, but only because I am changing the header. Edit: Okay, I've modified the position of both the header and footer. They are now the same widths as the content area.

ILMV Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 If you look at the screen shot you'll see what I mean. But it seems as if you have changed it already, it looks good [attachment deleted by admin] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/132545-another-design/#findComment-689237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I like this version. Nice and light and clean I think one thing that jumps out the most for me is the lack of adequate spacing of your content and the panel borders. The text goes very close to the edges.. would be nice to include some CSS padding in those panels to give some 'breathing room' IMO. Not sure I would flaunt an x with Flash.. If its a weakness.. perhaps not listing it would be better? I do like the look / direction its heading in though.

JasonLewis Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Mmm.. How about a tick for flash, but say only basics? In the panels? As in, the recent works panels? I'll increase the padding in a few places to make it more spaced out and nice looking. Thanks for the comments. Anyone else have anything to say?

As in, the recent works panels? Hmm.. panels as in all areas containing text (Welcome to my personal portfolio, About my place, test One, Test Two, Test Three, etc..)

JasonLewis Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Oki doki. Padding it all a bit more now and changing it to a tick. Done. Also fixed up the abbreviations, because some browsers didn't show the little dotted underline by default. I want my CSS to be valid, but I can't because I'm using overflow-y: scroll; so that FF has a scrollbar at all times (this prevents the jerkiness that can be caused by some JS effects). It's valid, but not CSS 2.1, it's CSS3. Is there another way to have a scrollbar on by default in some browsers, that is valid CSS 2.1?

As far as your CSS problem.. if I understand correctly, you want all browsers to keep the side scrollbar visible? What I use in my CSS site is this: html {min-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 1px;} This validates as CSS 2.1 EDIT - IE 8 doesn't honor this aspect (yet).. but it is in Beta.. so who knows if it will when it comes around to launching as a RC.

JasonLewis Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yeah, but then its an active scroll bar. At least with overflow-y its only active when it needs to be. Blast, eh... I guess the CSS is still valid, just not CSS 2.1 valid. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/132545-another-design/#findComment-689978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
