Hello,

I have finally completed the daunting task of completely redoing my website. This is my first go around with Dreamweaver and Photoshop so I know I can only get better and Im sure that this will just be one of the many face lifts my site sees.

Im not sure if I really like it or not but please be honest and let me know what you think...

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt, you certainly have been busy. I like the layout and how crisp it looks down the middle. Not sure why but it's a little too wide for my large screen. The black background looks good but I'm not into black. I had my site black once and changed it. But it was all black with white letters.

Good job so far.
Steve

Thanks Stephen,

Yeah I dont know about the black either and for some reason on my screen it's not centered, more left side heavy.

I'm gonna play around with the colors and do a few more header graphics to see what I can come up with.

Maybe Ill make a few sites then have a poll to see which people prefer more.

I like it Matt!
well done and good onya for giving it a go!
I quite like the black background - I always like black though as I think it makes everything else standout and creates a good border.

When viewing through IE& as I am - not sure why but the screen is too big as Stephen said.....so I can see most of the right hand sidebar, which is an issue coz thats where your optin is! better sort that quick!

aside from that, I know you and I know thats just the beginning - so far so good - keep up the great work!

I love the color and the contrast with the neon blue header and black background.

Probably the same issue you have noticed with the left side justification:

On the left side bar the first letter is smashed up against the edge. In my master of fudge school of thinking (path of least resistance) I would just add a * on the left of each listed item to push it over to the right

* lalalala
* tralalala
* yehyehyeh

As well please note that your bottom margins need to have more space - in the middle it literally cuts the last line of text in half so you can't read it.

At the very bottom it just looks smashed and needs some white space under the last line of text. (IE7 btw)

Looks like a real good start, Matt!

Hi Matt,

Great job. I do like the contrasting b&W I am viewing through ffox and it all appears okay to me. The only thing that strikes me, is the site menu text is butt up against the black! maybe put a border around it or something.

Great work and I am sure you will get it how you want it very soon.
