dm I could really care less what you think of me. Really. All I’m asking is that people try to act civil in this forum instead of just plotting down random negative adjectives.

He’s from Oz…which, by the law of averages, probably makes him a marsupial in the first place.

[quote=fasterthanlight™;2346281]Aww I get a network timeout, no site for me

And whats with the excessive mean-ness guys??

Judging by your comments this is probably the friend’s first site (or something close to that)

Were any of you superstar website designers when you first started ?  
NO.

Will your comments potentially discourage a young/new designer from turning this into a hobby and becoming the best designer in the world?  
YES.[/quote]  
It’s a first site with 7,139 registered users then. I don’t think anyone has been excessively mean and, from the initial post, I’ve assumed that Zaiah has already pointed out the many flaws with this site but his friend doesn’t appear willing to accept criticism from him. Of course, it’s entirely down to his friend whether he/she wishes to consider the overwhelming weight of evidence suggesting that the site isn’t particularly easy on the eye.

Ok, so now the site works for me,

This is a perfect example of what happens when you design-as-you-build with no solid concept in mind

its funny- everyone at kirupa forum, the moment they find a site which sucks- they all jump into it - start thrashing it and showing their creative writing skills and sense of humor… you can find 100s of posts but not a single constructive criticism.

^ :lol: What else would we do if we could flame and argue? Besides, this guy is probably a spammer considering he hasn’t even replied to this thread yet.

EDIT: Yep, looking through all of his posts, most of them are cleverly disguised spam.

I have to agree with faster and sekasi here. Tone down the deconstructive comments or I will unleash nobody, simplistik, and fester on all ya’lls. 😛

_edit_ oops, a moment too late and I forgot to add Digi to the list. :hugegrin:
