Hey Everyone, I am working on my next version of my site. Since AOL 8.0 wants to be as evil as usual and switch to Netscape I have to make a new version that is cross browser compatible (of course, the only version I have ever made that isn’t NS compatible has to be taken down early because of AOL…grrr). Well anyway… I set up this teaser splash page for my next version 🙂 You can either drool over it (being conceited here), make fun of the piece of crap (being opposite here), or just ignore this in general, I don’t care…LOL. I was just really bored :-\ 🙂 [Next Lostinbeta Splash](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Version 1 Type 2)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index5.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Second Version)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index2.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Version 2 Type 2)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index6.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Third Version)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index3.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Version 3 Type 2)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index7.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Fourth Version)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index4.html) [Next Lostinbeta Splash (Version 4 Type 2)](http://www.8ballcreations.com/lostinbeta/splash/index8.html) ---

No, that is me, and how I dress…lol. I like wilderness stuff, so pretty much anything dealing with nature I like (not everything, but… yeah, you might get my point) 🙂 And yes, I am still PO’ed about her digging up our yard…grrr :evil: ---

:beam: Yeah, the grass is a simple Photoshop brush, the self portrait was done in my first attempt to draw in Illustrator (with a mouse none the less), so I was really proud of how it turned out 🙂 I need to start working on more Javascript experiments, I have like 2 or 3…lol (well ones that are completed and able to be put up). ---

I like it - very simple, yet effective. Good colors. Nice work. Peace ---

Although I think I might use the two stripes as a msk for some sort of pattern that recedes out into space, but only visable in the strips (also done in a color that only slightly differs form the striep color) - but that is me, not you. Just a though. 😛 Peace ---

Hmm, I actually thought about that myself 🙂 I will give it a try, see how it looks later 🙂 Thanks for the imput… now to get the site itself up :-\ Then I can ask for actual input on my site itself… w00t, that won’t be for some time though (hoping by january). ---

You thought of it too? haha, well that means the pic is begging for it!! 😛 If you try that be sure to post it I’d like to see how it adds or takes away from the pic. Cant wait for the new site. I think I’ll actually have mine around the same time, it is going to be my holiday project (as long as I dont aquire any more clients). Peace ---

Ok, well I tried the pattern overlay/mask type thing… I tried different ways and styles, etc, but none of them really suited my fancy. I think I like the plain way better. Didn’t hurt to try though 🙂 Well I did update a few things on it, probably nothing really noticable, just a few touch ups here and there, and instead of a whole strip, the enter area is now a button (that pops up an alert message saying its not up yet, tacky, but I was bored), and I added a logo next to it. I also repositioned me, and added another diagonal line to the left side. Why did I say the changes? No clue, oh well 😛 ---

Well it is just an image, not Flash… so I won’t be kicking anything. I probably won’t make it flash, so I probably won’t kick anything in the future either. It must be the PS2 man, your stoned on the PS2!!! LOL 😛 ---

Cool. I like the cartoon-y character, but then again, I would. 🙂 Can you give us any clues about what the finished thing would look like? ---

The Cartoony character is a mock up of myself… what was really funny was when I left my computer and my sister saw it she was like “WOW SOMEONE DREW SOMETHING THAT LOOKS JUST LIKE YOU!!!”…lol. She cracks me up sometimes. Hmm, the the insides don’t look much different… so far right now I have that same splash as the heading of the page, but that is subject to change. I am also working on writing a Javascript menu thing that works in NS and IE, kinda like a drop down without it being an ugly drop down box, one of those kinds of menus. I am going to try and have a more organized nav, so that there are main sections, with sub sections instead of all different crap like I have now squeezed into a tiny area. I should also have open source Flash/DHTML/Javascript experiments of mine (all unoptimized since I am self taught I can only do what I figure out…lol). The color scheme is obviously the same. I am trying to keep it simple, but not too simple. I think that is about it… If you have any questions don’t be afraid to ask 🙂 ---

OH MAAN! I love it! sry for the delay! I was @ school! I like the colors and the guy there… you! It’s good to make a site with only few colors. I have black&blue on mine… (not ready yet, waiting for it to be finished) [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/teaser-splash-page-for-next-version-of-lostinbeta/8605.md?page=2)
