im a noob but i hate cutting corners so i've desided to make my own site completely... its still in progress and its taken me about 5 weeks (i feel ashamed cause there isnt a great deal to it yet..) but i have been busy with school work and stuff..

im just looking for advice on any improvements or overall grevences..

I am also trying to produce a flash shoutbox for the site so the box fits my site perfectly but it doesnt work at the minute..

this is the link to the new site template:
Persona Online

this is the link to the old template:
Persona Online

Thanks for any CnC u guys give me

Jamie

ok i see there is something up with the boxes containing the chat ill fix that shortly and there is and error at the bottom with the looping bacground

anyway of have a bg that only loops once... the reason i placed it as a bg was becuase when u scroll over the picture it comes up with that small grey box allowing print save etc... anyway of removing that option

hmmmm well on your first site i kinda liked it but a little heavy on the layer glow effect lol maybe make it spread less.... but yeah i like the header you did with your faces in vector.... only is true they might needa bit of work but its probably your first time doing them or you just didnt spend much time on them..... but i really liked the idea.... but maybe not hte persona part of the 1st site.... your second one is cool but its hard to say how the rest of it will look becaus from my guess of the header its not ognna be anythign close too the other site..... ohh and on yoru vectored heads why is htere only 3? arnt you guys 4? lol .... but yeah keep it up man your doing good.... cant wait to see the rest of yoru second template... hope you kept yoru vector heads....

[jamiecarter]

i need a picture of the 4th guy lol... im trying to imcorporate the face into the site but i have no idea how to as yet... i mya make a thing on the left wiht the faces on... thx for the comments dude

im working on the 2nd template at the minute and ill get back to u when i've updated it

Personally, I don't like the inner glow on your first template, but for some reason I liked that one the best.
The navigation on your second template is not that good, if you improve that, it might get better, but I'd rather worked a bit more on your first template.

[jamiecarter]

hmm... in what way is my 2nd template navigation not as good? ... im using the same links basically.. is it the font or colour of the text?

The backgrund, the metal-bar-thingy, that´s what I don´t like.
But that´s just my opinion...

I think it looks good, just out of curiousity how many carter boys are there? lol at least 3 right?

[jamiecarter]

there are 2 carter boys lol 3 including me (but im not in the band) and there are 2 of thier mates... i have yet to make a vector image of paul one of my cuzins because i dont have a picture of him yet..

i've been adding more content to the site and after much frustration of not having adequate size on the first site i had to slighty extend the main image lol (i was so mad)

here is the uptodate page

[jamiecarter]

i dont understand what u mean.. you dont like the design (eg the content)

or you dont like the design but u like the content?

:S

[defiant]

[jamiecarter]

[jamiecarter]
