Even if you made those content boxes the same color that would be awesome. Getting another shade in there did the trick for me, good work 🙂 Look forward to seeing it with content, I see no problems with it now 😃 ---

Basically said you should be designed the site around the content. ---

Looks very fine porpous. Although there’s is also some part in my head that says I have to agree with the others, your flash layout should be linked to you content… I mean, f.e. if you make a site about flowers you would try to make something with a flower, do you understand what I mean? If you don’t agree, just do it with that lay-out looks nice for sure! :thumb: ---

Take it to your clients. Ultimately, if they like the layout, obviously go with it. If not, stash it away, and then once a new one comes along just say “I have this layout pre-made, would you like to use this?” You can always make a new layout for this job. ---

hehe… this is for me not a client, pretty much this site is… a mass multiplayer universe of flash games that you can get coins and get ratings and stuff on the website, and play over the internet against other people, and flash chat and everything… its not for a client, im not a designer, im not that experianced, ive only had photoshop for a few months… maybe 3 or 2.5 ---

Don’t take actions based on my posts, I suck at webdesigning that’s why I quote myself > If you don’t agree, just do it with that lay-out looks nice for sure! 😛 ---

well thats what i need, im not trying to please designers as much as the overall community of people. My site isnt reaching designers, its reaching people who like multiplayer flash games over the internet. ---

It looks nice. I would put little icons representing the different games up on the page to color it up… and if you’re going to have coins in the site, why not sprinkle some coins randomly around the layout, just to add something interesting to the site - don’t put them anywhere intrusive, just have them kind of poking out from the corners, or from behind other things… just a suggestion… :beam: ---
