jcombs_31 Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 This is a remake of a site I developed a long time ago. There was a revision before this that I was not happy with and never went online. Most of the major work is complete. Most of the content (mainly the gallery is the bulk of the site) is controlled with a custom CMS. I have to finish some odds and ends but I think it is ready for critique and problem fixing. http://dev.bcastropics.com/ Let me know of any holes you may find. edit: I forgot to mention that I haven't tested and I know that IE6 will have major problems mostly due to the transparent PNGs I've used around here and there, but I intend to put a notice to those users. In my mind there is no need for a site like this to cater to old browsers. I have some other cool ideas to build on as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 The "Current Highlight" heading on the home page is a little hard to read with the background. Perhaps you could tone down on the meteor trail for this heading. I'm not sure about the icon before the Copyright 2009 on the bottom left. The gallery looks good. Would 9 be a better number of images to show on one page? A search option for the gallery would also be cool, seeing as there are a good few images there. I did not see the image categories list on the right the first time. (Could just have been me). -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 Can you post a screen shot of the highlight text. The meteor shouldn't be interfering. 9 could be better and a search is something I still have to add, but it is easy enough. I probably should have done that already before posting this. The logo/icon can probably use some work, I did that years ago and haven't played with it in this revision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 This is with IE8. See: http://burkesys.com/stephen/phpfreaks/jcombs-1.jpg Also I noticed when I resized the internet window that an overlap of the bottom background image occurred. See: http://burkesys.com/stephen/phpfreaks/jcombs-2.jpg (I think it only happens at a certain spot, so it might be nothing). -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks Stevie. I've had some issues with using the 2 backgrounds, maybe I should rethink it. I don't see the highlight text as being difficult to read, does anyone else have opinions if that is an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, enough said that a site under development is missing a view? magic quotes? http://dev.bcastropics.com/images/view/156 Yea, from an earlier version. I have to clean up some of the data.

canadabeeau Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I agree with the above comments (mostly) but I do like the design and the site, I have no problem with reading text (in terms of the meteor interfering) Great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
