Hello just signed up here, mainly using photoshop, i'm in the middle of doing my website, www.christoefar.com, can you tell me what you think? That would be cool.

Cheers

Welcome! So far the outline looks good. No complaints at all. The speed, though, is a bit slow loading. Seems like it's on your host's end though since your images aren't that big. Just fyi...good work though!

Welcome Chris, so far so good on your website, just one small thing, I believe it should be "Dave and I" and not Dave and me.

Hello and Welcome

Hey chris,

Welcome to PA! I'm sure you're going to like it here! Great avatar, btw.

Here are some thoughts about your web page:

I like the easy navigation. Big, easy to read buttons are always nice. Are they going to have different rollover states? Colored maybe?

I do like the wavy lines- nice way to break up a static box!

I can't say I'm wild about the grid or the font for "the home page of..." I like the scan line look, but maybe bring the grid down a bit or make it less thick and robust.

Hope that helps!

Thankyou for your comments,

you will get to see some of my PS work in contests, but compared to some work I have seen on here, I am not so good, i'm also not very good with english.

I am think I will enjoy it as well,

Cheers Again

Hi Christoefar, we'll cope with your English I'm sure :)

Wherabout in there UK are you? I'm in (sunny) Birmingham. :)

[christoefar]

[Dave]

Dave are you going on a PA campaign in the UK or what? New UK members are popping up all over the place! Sweet!

You have to tell me what those cryptic adresses mean: Like EC1. What the...?

-B[/QUOTE]You have zip codes we have post codes. The first couple of letters of the postcode are the town or city except in London, the numbers and letters following the first letters are just smaller and smaller divisions of the area .....

So EC actually is an area of London (East Central) sub-district 1 the next few leeters would give you a block within a street then all you need is th house number.

I live in Birmingham, so my post code begins with "B", I'm in district 42 and the last part of the code 2DJ identifies the small road I live in.

So tell me zip codes are any different? They're far more cryptic in reality :)

hiho chris :)
welcome to the site, i´m sure you will like it here a lot

as to your page, nice colors, a little bit slow loading and the thing i do not like so much is the big header though, because the content of the site has not enough place to show up on a normal monitor, the relation between header and content should at least be 1/3 : 2/3

the user woudn´t not always like to scroll down for reading :)

Go on Dave... now your house number and that's it you've posted your entire address online and you is up fer 'stalker time' matey. ;)

Hi Chris and welcome, I'm in Sheff but not saying where LOL :p

[swillox]

Welcome Chris...

Nice site, ... further why don't you design the underneath buttons like the above one's (mean grey)?

Very slow loading indeed...

Cool you got your own forum ! do you got to pay for that? what's his limitations?

[TinCupid]

Hi Chris and welcome! With the above suggestions, Your site will be looking great (it's not bad at all right now) :)

[christoefar]

I pay $6.95 a month for all my hosting, only set it up a few weeks ago, www.greengardenhosting.com is where I get it from, I struggle to know when my webpage loads slow, because I have a dial up, all web pages are slow.

I think I might do the buttons the same as the top ones, thankx for that!

Am I able to upload pictures on this site, so that everyone can see them here?, or will I have to have them on my site and post links.

Cheers

Stalkers? I eat them for breakfast :)

[Mswings]

Welcome to PA Chris. :)


Stalkers? After Dave? hee hee I knew it would happen sooner or later. :p

COOL! Thanks for the explanation, Dave! You're right- zip codes mean nothing to the average person. Giving you a zip code would not be of any use for figuring out where the address is.


Three San Diego zip codes: 92105, 92106, 92107

92105 is about 15 minutes away from 92106 on the freeway. That's about as precise an explanation I can give for the numbers!
