Okay Thanks for the help

Thanks buddy, so this function (the typing out) is already coded and in a library? sorry for the questions im not much of a developer but looking to get into this kind of stuff. Thanks, Chris

Hi everyone, just wanted to know how the site dinnerbone.com works. (How the browser types out the message like that). Im thinking jquery some sort of animation technique? I dont know hence me posting. Thanks in advance

Okay thanks, isn't there some way of uploading the font to the server and linking it from that or something like that? Saw something about it on nettuts a long time ago, ill have a look through.

Thanks for the feedback, ill build in a function that allows you to change font colour if, for some people, the text is hard to read. And the text is Century Gothic, perhaps I need to use a more universal font? Thanks, Chris

Thanks for the tip, didn't know that one

Thanks I was going for the simple clean look, can some times be hard to pull off but i think I did okay

Hi all, I have just designed my new portfolio and got it upload just want to know what you guys think and how I can improve it? Does the concept of one page work? At the moment this wont be the final design just wanted some feedback. http://www.vizualweb.co.uk/chrisbailey Thanks

Looks great, has a lot of potential. At first glance of the homepage it appears to be a bit plain and boring, so perhaps add some images to enhance the home page. And to make the design more consistent you could put a border around the intro bit (I am Tom.. etc) like you have put the border around the other content boxes. Good job!

Its been a while since ive done this but a while ago I did this for a client, you simply create the login name and password fields and place them onto your design, then set the form process as the login you want to use, in this case your ics login process.

Seems way too boxy and old-fashioned, try using a wider colour range? And try experimenting with using rounded boxes, more images (perhaps screenshots of the game?).

Nice design, doesn't display the header properly though (the top of the nav and logo is cut off). And the site isn't very search engine friendly as there is no content within the mark up. And the code isn't valid (14 errors).

I went for Vizualweb for shortness but im currently moving some money into my other account to buy the other. Thanks for all the feedback!

I would charge around £400 for the site, then add some other charges when updating the site if the client needs the website updated. And true the site doesn't validate but I guess that is okay if you are still developing the site.

Hello, Ive been developing my web site for quite a while now and feel it is ready, I am just about to purchase a domain but I am not really sure which domain to go for: The name of the website is Vizual Web Design, but I am not sure whether to buy the domain 'vizualweb.co.uk' or 'vizualwebdesign.co.uk'. Any advice to help me decide which one I should go for would be great. Thanks in advance! Chris.

I like the idea of the design, not really too sure about the wording you have used (freelance tea maker) sounds as if your going for a comical/ personal touch but doesn't really work in my opinion.

Looks good, you have a yellow border on the left side of the template, I would put one on the right too to make the design more consistent.

The certificate would make you appear more trusted and qualified to potential clients though, and look good on your cv.

You didn't mention about pulling data Hmm, Im not sure exactly what you have in mind, but it does seem much more complicated and sounds to me like something to do with pulling content from a database and displaying it? Could you explain exactly what you are trying to do? are you trying to create a system where the user can search for a type of product, then display the product information but in place of old content?

You could create the two divs, then using the display: none; property, for example: <div id="1">blah blah</div> <div id="2">blah blah</div> #1 {display: none;} #2 {display: block;} then upon clicking or running the event, write the script to change the styles to: #1 {display: block;} #2 {display: none;}

Depends what the customer wants, if they already have a domain and hosting, then a one off payment will do. But if they need hosting, domain and updating. Charge them the money for the build of the website, then monthly for the hosting domain and update service. (Depending on how often they think they will need the site updated).

The background is very dull, the template seems a little too corporate, and I must admit it does feel like a free template. And the code doesn't validate very well, and as you are offering web development services, it is essential that you can write clean valid code. I also think you should have the title of the website somewhere in the banner. And I think the background images behind the text are a too busy, and the image distracts you from reading the actual content.

I think you should make your own thread and not highjack Jurdan's thread. Great website by the way Jurdan!

To make your photoshop design into a website, you need to code your design... Most websites are coded in (x)html and css. (x)html is the markup language (the frame) and css is the styling language (adds colour, positioning etc). To code your design, you need to slice the design, then code it up. I found these tutorials very useful and I think they will help you on your way to becoming a webdesign master! 30 Best html practices for beginners.
