.Rai Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Damn, the font being used for the link navigators is so eeeeehhh. It'a a really nice site skeleton. I feel like the background tiles in a strange way, and could be darker, but it's fine. A little monotone though. Add a secondary colour perhaps? Really, really good though.

-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I think orange would possibly be a good secondary. (Orange is the color of Prometheans in H4) Is the font showing up like New York Times or square? Cuz it's supposed to be more square, but I can go with a rounded one. but Thanks!

Night Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 You know I always enjoy your web designing. I feel like If you've seen one of your sites however, you've seen them all. You start great, but then we never get to see the anything more than that, I don't think I've ever seen you finish a site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I finished one yall never got to see, but the clan died with Halo Reach, so I just let it go. Other thatn that, I just designed forums, and that doesn't really count for me. This one I definitely plan on finishing. Anyway, new skeleton up, with an orange addition!

bury the year Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 whyyy is it serif for the font whyyy Also, the texture on the site title ("Undead Monarchy") makes it difficult to read against the background texture, and I feel like the difference between the resolution of the background and the orange shapes at the top is too great. The latter could be a bit crisper and have more shading around the edges. The second set I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 It should be fairly easy to read. On the font note, I plan on changing it On the logo note, I plan on redoing it. I like the orange/blue on it, but I don't like the orange structures as much as I do the ones in the BG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 Currently working on V3.0 of the site, and you can view the progress here! http://undeadmonarchy.x10.mx/new/home2.html I'm working on staying away from a center-oriented website and am going for a much more... dynamic approach. Again, mimicking some of the Waypoint-esque features. Ignore the 3 welcomes, they're just placeholders for now! New BG will be added as well!!!

bury the year Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 Border at the top should extend all the way across the screen and touch the top as well. And the "testing testing 123" thing is disorienting when it starts stretching the horizontal scrollbar. o_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 could you show me what you're talking about on the announcement? It should move across, but not change scrollbar at all? and on the note of the top border, I'm working on it. for some reason, they won't touch. I got the top and left to touch, but I don't think the right will be able to.. Still couldn't get the right to touch, however, it's not much of a bother to me. anyway, I now have the "home page" up, with what will be the team status and message display!! Of course, it was made using photoshop so I could avoid the NIGHTMARE of HTML and CSS formatting, and I did avoid the "centered list" style I seem to always use. I like this alot. I will be implementing text boxes for my own use soon. Also, I think I know what I want to do for the nav, but I want to see what you guys thing I should do about the nav and where it should be. Alright, so "Links" are up, but PLEASE DO NOT CLICK THEM! they will take you to the current V2 version of the site (crap one), and you wont get back unless you go back a page. I will update the links when V3 is finished and is implemented! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 When the announcement bar moves offscreen to the right, a horizontal scrollbar appears at the bottom. I'm using Chrome so I'm not sure if it's just part of the functionality or something else. Learn CSS. Srsly. It's not that difficult to master and can give crisper designs than just images.

-DG- Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I know a decent amount of CSS, but for what I want to do as I did, I fear it would be almost impossible without, say, Java or something, so for intricate designs, I just use PHotoshop. on the note of the image, is it still doing it? it doesnt do it to mine..

-DG- Posted December 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Full site is up for now. Not a finished site, just have the site map working and all that good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 check out http://undeadmonarchy.x10.mx/mem.html This is how I plan to use DIVs to make my team list. As seen, I used 2 div ID's to make the "Black Team, Red Team, etc.." I felt this would be good because the player models will actually update, which I love!! Comments?

Night Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Liking the restructure of the heading, if fits better. Try sticking to a single alignment, it seems to switch from left to center depending on the tab you're in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 yeah, I'm working on that. I'm trying to get my DIV's to stay in as 1024px border, and I THINK I know how I'm gonna do that, but it's taking some work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 http://undeadmonarchy.x10.mx/mem.html alrighty people, I've been playing with Javascript and Jquery, and I found a cool way to "introduce" a spartan model!! How this works is you click the button, and they fade in and slide into position!! Finally nearing end stages of development! Just have to fix the Teams page and revamp the home page's content a bit, and that's it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 I think alignment probably needs a tiny bit of polishing, but it's really coming together very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I think I got the alignment down now, I finally got my DIV containers to work!! The site's nearing completion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DG- Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 EDIT: Alright guys, It's up! V3 is complete! Thanks for the help guys, cuz without yall, I wouldn't have redone this and stuck with the old crappy one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
