[font=Century Gothic][color=seagreen]I am building a site. I need some inspiration. I need some ideas. I am trying to build a ultra-modern, sleek, cool looking site. Something fresh and not too busy. It’s going to be my own personal site [about me, photos…]. So can anyone give me some ideas for the navigation, layout and stuff like that??[/color][/font]
I would make it in flash.
This kind of post has been created many times and been answered many times. Check the SOTW archives, and use the search feature.
good luck
[font=Century Gothic][color=blue]I was not inquiring the application most suitable for this, I was asking for ideas on design. Please read my post carefully to understand my request. :sigh:[/color][/font]
Oh I read your post and if you read mine, I said use the Search Feature.
The flash comment was a joke as you are most likely going to use flash. Your questions about how do I find inspiration… I need ideas… help me design… has been asked many times. There are many posts int he forums with your answers. Search and you will find.
k, ill check them out, oh, and i want to know, how do ppl make their signatures flash [like swa]? i cant find that option anywhere on kirupa.

Has all the signature guidelines.
thanks…im still sorta looking for the design threads, cant seem to find anything good.
I would then go to these sites and look for your inspiration:
www.plasticpilots.com
www.linkdup.com
www.design9.co.uk
www.favouritewebsiteawards.com
and all the other flash award sites.
[font=Century Gothic]thanks alot for all ur help, now i gotta get busy and copy some of this stuff ::[/font]
I’m probably annoying you by know, but do you think that I can make a decent site without knowing actionscript? I only know basic stuff [goto and play, followmouse…]
I never learned the more complex codes.
you can make some ok stuff, but it really does start to get a bit complex once you start adding fancy transitions and button effects and stuff… but i guess the way to learn is to experiment, so you might as well start learning stuff.
also, plan your site before you start!!! if you know exactly what’s going to happen, you can make it work much better, coz you won’t get all confused and stuff.
don’t forget moluv and be sure to swing by [url=http://designchapel.com]DCHPL
good luck designing!
Yeah I don’t know much AS and I’ve made some OK sites in flash. I know as much JS as I do AS: Enough to understand how to wire a bunch of scraps of code together to get something I want. Beats me what it all says and does though.
ethan, ive seen your site, and is that alot of actionscript? cuz i dont know how to do that with just tweens and stuff
don’t forget moluv and be sure to swing by DCHPL
good luck designing!
im on the moluv site, where are the actionscript codes?
moluv is not so much an actionscript site as it is an inspiration site, like linkdup. you go there to browe categories of webdesign and find inspiration.
lol, moluv doesn’t have as codes, they have inspiration for you to look at and get ideas for your site from, also k10k has lots of inspiration but not as much flash stuff
