...Site Design

LostOverThere

For a long time now I have had huge troubles with what different browsers make sites look like, weather they just align the page somewhere different, or the tables and cells dont work out.

Anyone, after many conplants, I descided to change it, now the design is very basic, but it works with all browsers (so far).

Here it is:

Could you guys please tell me 2 things:
1: If it looks ok on your browser, EG: Its aligned to the middle.
2: You like the design.

Thanks,

The site looks fine and are perfectly aligned, but you might consider doing something a bit more "colourful" with your navigation links..

(By the way, I'm using IE)

If you want to check the compatibility of your designs especially your CSS. download firefox and install the extensions for web development. Technically, IE is far behind than firefox when it comes to web development tools.. firefox is better when it comes to debugging javascripts and check CSS and HTML. there is an option in firefox that validates your CSS and HTML with the W3C school..you might want to try that..

Looks same in Opera/Firefox/Ie on my computer - it's ok , but Use some CSS styles to apply colors for links, and maybe diffrent font for text? (font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; looks gr8)
About design - looks ok, clean but ... it's tabe based layout - think about learning how to make CSS Based XHTML pages whit no tables as a skelet for layout (now You are Using CSS but for every element separatly - that's not the point of CSS) - not pushing You but ... if You have some time it's worth to learn it Smile

Thanks guys.

@b4r4t: I would use CSS, but when I tried it in IE, it screwed the page up...is that just my bad coding?

If you're serious about browser and cross-platform compatability, you should really check out http://www.danvine.com/icapture/ They'll show you screenshots of your site as viewed by different browsers and platforms.
They're pretty backed up, though. If you're going to make use of their services, you should really check as many as you can on your local system and if possible, help them out.

no offence or anything but can i comment on your text font?

it's very plain and sort of looks wierd for a gaming site....

even arial or tahoma would look better than taht... no offence

if you know how to use css it's very easy to do

just put [code]<link href="style.css" rel=stylesheet>[quote] in the head of every page then

make a file called style.css and put

[code]p { font: 8pt arial; }
p.subtitle { font: 10pt arial; }
p.title { font: bold 12pt arial; }[/code] or something like that... edit it toyour liking

then when you have a title or sub title in the <p> tag put a [code]<p class="subtitle">Random Cheese games</p>[/code]

for normal text you do not need to do anything becuase <p> is already a class with normal 8 pt arial font...
