Not really a blog. More of a "Log" with various items of interest, articles, cool finds, rants, and work progress. "


Blog means Web-log you know

Nice site.

I know it's the community project and I'm not taking credit for it.

What I meant was I'm "Working on it". I'll take it off so people don't get offended.

EDIT: Changed. Sorry about that btw, it came out wrong. I didn't mean it to sound selfish. Now Hamish will be cross.

get your own blog now mate.

www.blogger.com


change the red colours of the top navigation text as its a little hard to see or increase its size.

red and blue are opposite in the colour harmony spectrum and can vibrate against each other. choose a dark red and light red colour or hue and use these to layout the colours on your site, if you use darker red colour for the back ground colour you will keep harmony and colours in the same frequency. good work so far keep it up

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself 

Thanks, I'll see what can be done about the colors, though the top red links look easy to see for me.

Does blogger.com let you kinda customize the look and feel of your blog? Because I don't wanna install some basterd blog that has ads or wierd layouts.

Btw I was also planning on asking to comment on all the site layouts in the "web design" section but forgot.

Nada problem That was what my mum calls "pointing out the obious"

I agree with indi on the colors thing, bright red aganist bright blue is kinda harsh... I'd suggest using a much darker blue, like on http://www.gamehippo.com/ And the lineart cat is pretty cool!

Thanks for the comments and suggestions.

And I edited my first post with other sites which some people might have over-looked.

Thanks again

when slicing buttons as in your drift website, pay attention as to what your slicing, eg: if you slice your buttons within the black areas and avoid any other graphical elements, then the buttons will load very fast, if you slice into your panels then that add unwanted loading times on your buttons. sometimes a very thin graphic stretched out horizontally or vertically will save tonnes of time in loading as well.

Vapournet.com - ask them to hook you up with a domain and good hosting for under £17 a year. I don't know how much that is in CAN$, but it's not alot.

Hey thanks I'll look into that.
I found a few acutally for $10 but I thought there might be cheaper (Yeah...I'm just that cheap )

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in tutorials. Just some beginers tutorials on website design, graphics, and level modeling. Just want to know if people would be interested and if it would actually help someone.
thanks
