New Splash Page

talk design
1

Hi everybody !

I completely redid my splash page on electrongeek advice. So how do you like it ? The page that open (“Detect”) is used to detect the users resolution and redirect them to the page according to that resolution.

So eeh, how do y’all like it ? Check it here or [URL=http://users.pandora.be/voetsjoeba]here

nothing happens after I go to your page ? It dont change ?

is it just me or what ?:frowning:

:q: I think it’s just you … works fine for me … make sure you’re browser enables javascript …

4

I can’t even enter the site. All I see is a black screen with text on it.

Oppsyy !

thats not just me ! :wink:

i got to it ok.
it’s pretty good , i like the rollover effect. but there are too many popups. i went earlier, and i had 3 or something pop ups (as in your site, not ads)

but good.

7

the text on the splash page is kind of blury.

8

wait what…i’m a third that can’t get in…and i’m using IE 6
oh oh

9

nothing either :-\

hej Voetsjoeba …

there are a couple of comments i wanna make about your site …

first of all … you should definately change the font you use at the moment cause the text is kinda hard to read.
(check out kirupa’s tutorial on creating smooth looking text)

second … mebbe you can take a look at your colouring scheme
one more time … it is really dark (mebbe even a bit too dark)

check out this link for some ideas concerning colour layout

lat0rrrrrrrrrrrr

D:xmn, why can’t people see my splash page ?? I obviously have to make my code more browser friendly … I use Internet Explorer 6.0 and Windows XP Home, works fine for me …

Anyway if you can’t see the splash page : for 1024x768 click here and for 800x600 [URL=http://users.pandora.be/voetsjoeba/splash800x600.html]here and tell me what you think of the splash page ( only the splash page plz ).

  1. About that font : I know, on my stage it looks perfectly crisp but in my swf it’s kinda blurry ( and yes i read the kirupa tutorial (read them all ))

  2. The pop-ups: I have to add some javascript to Detect to close it after the splash page has opened … It’s just that my ‘creation’ pc is upstairs and my ‘put-online’ pcv downstairs, and after i’ve finished the page i was too lazy to go downstairs and search for the javascript to close it :beam:

  3. The colouring scheme : I’m recreating my website but first I wanted to see if people like my splash page ( exactly for the reason of the colouring scheme i’ll use)

Any more comments are welcome :slight_smile:

Oh yeah, I forgot, i use a Dot.tk domain but i learned that the servers are kinda messy so sometimes it doesn’t wanna load. The direct link is http://users.pandora.be/voetsjoeba. If that doens’t work, check the links metnioned in the post above

Frame rate too slow! **** blured text!

14

hm… works fine here, looks nice, I agree with vendi - frame rate is too slow :slight_smile:

15

I set it at 25, but this is obviously too slow :slight_smile: what do i have to set it on ?

16

dunno…try 30 :slight_smile: I ussually work with this frame rate.

17

Ok I’ll try that but I don’t think that’ll make much of a difference … :slight_smile:

[COLOR=crimson]try 32 fps, that’s what i use, anything more won’t work on old browsers… if you want an example try this link, or [URL=http://www.ubwhour.com/saintsimon/splash]this one…
the first one is my unfinished personal portfolio, but should offer a good example of how smooth 32fps is. the second is a splash page the upcoming “state of mung” website.[/COLOR]

good luck!:nerd:

I don’t think the browser affects the processer speed of a user’s computer.

Ok, I’ll set it to 32fps one of these days … Can’t right now cuz my dad is working on my room putting polyester on the walls so it’s an awful smell :smirk:
