r30… do you mind if I move this to the “site check” thread?

(no I haven’t taken a look yet. I’ll be sure to do so and throw some feed back your way.)

PS - yes I saw your message, yes I worked on it today, no it’s not done yet. :slight_smile:

Hey r30,
I think the site is off to a very good start. I really like the drag mask animation on your front page (looks eerily similar lol). You could try to improve the color scheme by changing the color of the background in your frame. For example, you can make one half one color and the other half another color.

You can also try experimenting with different font variations. Times New Roman is so overused that any font except that might look cool. Since your site is a tech site, try something like Verdana or Arial because they are the next most popular fonts installed on user’s computers. Your site is quite cool, and I’m sure as you continue to improve it, it will become better!

i disagree… a font like arial would suk… for a techy site you shoudl prolly use a sort of sloppy, but not handwritten DRAFTSMEN’s font… it looks smooth, its the one they use in comics nowadays. i did like the rest of your site. that part just needs some work like kirupa said… i have also seen a really kewl site for a movie… mission to mars i think and it has it where your cursor becomes your POV [point of view] and when u drag it over other the screen it is blurry everywhere else but where u drag… it was pretty kewl and it doesnt give that “cholostraphobic” feeling. plus if u think about it… when u stare at one point in your everyday life, EVERYTHING else is out of focus so its more realistic. =] off to a good start man… better than me =]

sorry for disagreeing with you kirupa =] oh great one =]

Hey icu,
It was probably because I might not have noticed it. Post the link again and I’ll be glad to give you a “Site Check” of the site.

Cheers,
Kirupa
