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](http://www.voetsjoeba.tk) ---

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. ---

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 [Principles of Graphic Design](http://www.mundidesign.com/presentation/index2.html) 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](http://users.pandora.be/voetsjoeba/splash1024x768.html) 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 🙂 ---

[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](http://www.ubwhour.com/saintsimon/) 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: ---

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 😏
