5% done. Critique please

I just started on a new project. It’s for a wireless telecom dealer.
It’s not even 10% complete, (was gonna post it up once it was atleast 50%,) but i wanted to get some advice and comments before i got deep into the project. Mostly all the links don’t work yet. I just want to get some opinion about the overall layout…
Please view 1024x768 + [prefer 1280x1024] (i do have a script set up to detect the resolution and forward, but i didn’t finish the 800x600 version yet.)

well… all comments are welcome. thanks.

holy… I forgot the link… arg…

Hey man, this site is sweet!

Although the elastic squares and liquid fill transition thing in layouts are a bit trendy and overused now, but it still doesn’t mean it doesn’t look cool.

I was wondering if you knew your “Phones” and “Contact Information” both containt he same title image of the tree and stocking. It wouldn’t be so much of a big deal except that in the lower right corner it says “Phones” so it kinda defeats the purpose of “Contact Information”.

So far seems pretty straightforward and functional, but since it is only a bit done I can only mainly go by looks.

I´ve done a great job!

Loved the layout division. A bunch of little, but neat effects… Good Site!=)

I know . =) All the title images are basically temporary… i only set the main title image, plans, and phones. the rest are using the phones image… like i said… “5%” =)

Anyways… thanks for the compliments.

I’m diggin it man. You got some talent. And boy o boy is Catherine Zeta Jones FFFIIIIIINNNNEEEEEE! nice images

thanks guid0… The whole site is a working progress… So stop by often, since alot is gonna improve… =)

thanks 3d-iva. *yeah… she’s hot… =)
I’m so glad that she’s the new Tmobile spokesmodel…
Rather than Jaime lee Curtis. =X

I like Jamie Lee Curtis, as an actress. As far as looks go… Catherine Zeta Jones takes the cake there.

Now back on topic… I also like the menu in the lower left corner, when it bounces in.

hey lostinbeta… i was browsing through your site… I really like it…
how did you do all those effects in HTML?? (like when you click the link, the bottom content slides in and out like that)… wow…
i’ve never seen that before…

Yeah, all my site versions are experiments.

An earlier version of my site was an Image Map version.

This version is my experiment with DHTML (which I dabble in, but completely suck at) using the Javascript scrollTo(x,y) method.

My next version will be my first PHP site, so it is a PHP experiment.

And sometime in the future a Flash experiment version?!?!? (maybe, we will see).

Thanks for the compliment though :slight_smile: :beam:

oh… DHTML and JAVASCRIPT…ahh…

I can’t wait to see your flash site., will be nice. =)

Nice site, transitions are sweet!

By the way, are you from the Billy Bussey Forum?

yes. =)

By the way., what happened to the forums anyways…?
ever since about 2 days ago… It’s not there… (says page not found) Even the main page, billybussey.com is not found… hmm

I doubt my flash page would be nice :wink: (not too good at designing in Flash for some reason).

Hmm, maybe ol’ Billy put in so much time working on his next version that he forgot to pay the annual fee for his domain and hosting :o :beam:

Design is design… if you know how to design, no matter what platform -it’ll come out right. I’m sure it’ll be nice, we won’t know until you try…won’t we?

billy’s new version was supposed to come out way back…maybe he did forget to pay…=)

(i’m still waiting for xdude’s new version to come out… it was supposed to come out waaaaaay back … I think it’s been couple of years… And i truly think it’ll never come out… )heh

Yeah, I know Billys second version was supposed to come out early last year, then he changed the date, and kept changing it, and here it is early 2003 and still nada. Over a year man.

Who is xdude? What is his site?

http://xdude.com ^^

he was one of my 1st inspirations. back in the day…

Wow, that “The Dough” animation was inpressive. Even more impressive was the music (my type of music).

Wow… planned update since August 1999, he better get his butt in gear :wink:

umm. any other comments and suggestions?. I would like to know of any ideas that’ll help me improve the site…

Also, i’m gonna start working on a ecommerce section of the site…
as of now it’s gonna be in HTML… But i’m wondering, what’s the best way to develop a shopping cart system?..(should i buy the software?[if yes, anyone know some good shopping cart softwares?] , or should i just develop it myself? , what is the best language to build a secure shopping cart system? [does anyone know of some good tutorials in doing this?] )
( i really want to build it in flash, but i have no clue how…
check this out… http://running.nike.com/nikerunning/
I want to develop it like how it’s done at that site… It’s mostly all done in flash, except the checkout part… )

If anyone has any kind of knowledge in E-Commerce , i would appreciate it if you can help me somehow…

thanks in advance…

Wow I can’t believe I missed this thread. :!:

enyceexgloboi, you did an awesome job on this site! It’s very clean, organized and the transitions are smooth. It’s pretty obvious that you put in a lot of work cause there is a lot of detail I see.

I can’t really think of anything to add to what has already been said so you’re on the right track. Normally I’m really picky about sites, but this one is awesome.

It sorta reminds me of Fantasy Interfaces site as in how clean everything is layed out, but still an awesome job. Keep it up. :beam:
