    Do it. It's these personal projects which sparks creativity in my opinion as you have no client to think about. Php has to run on a server so mamp has to be running, or just use some free hosting as someone suggested.

    Well here's a rough and ready version of it:

    Still lots to do, but wanted to keep it minimal. Don't know if the idea will kick off, but it's just a bit of fun more than anything!

    I quite like it. The things I would change would be the font in the navigation - I think a more standard font would look better. Also try and make sure the elements line up perfectly in a grid - e.g. the right side of the contact button should align with the picture thumbnails for ultimate perfection!

    Try it with static values like:
     

    if(mysql_query("INSERT INTO email_list (fullname, email) VALUES ('test name', 'test email')"))
     
    I can't really see what's wrong with it, just keep substituting static values in place of the dynamic parts to see where the problem resides.

    mrchristoph got a reaction from oakleaves in What do you think of my music?   
    Nice, I've dabbled with electronic music myself, albeit a lot more chaotic:
    The sound quality is vastly improved by selecting 480p quality (but it's still dodgy as hell)
     

     
    And just for laughs here's me playing Postman Pat on guitar:

    I'd go in a step higher with PDO and sort yourself out (write) some classes for registration, login, authentication, security, etc. etc. - the main one you're talking about being registration.
     
    This will not only be better, more secure, and more current, but will provide you with a good exercise in switching over to PDO.
     
    If you search this forum, there are some that have been written which you can study. Slight learning curve, but it'll click.

    mrchristoph got a reaction from futureproof in CSS in HTML emails...   
    Sorry I misunderstood - you should definitely use tables for the layout, but inline CSS for colours, fonts etc. I thought it was more of a general question of 'Can I use CSS in HTML emailers', which the answer is 'yes' (when it's limited to certain things, and it's inline)

    Inline CSS. No font-face. Otherwise they will be stripped out by some (if not most) email clients.

    Not sure how to deal with the Illustrator issue, but you could use CSS3 radial gradients on a flat colour to nail the BG issue.

    mrchristoph got a reaction from joel1st in Could you please review this design :)   
    Looks pretty good to me. I kind of think the logo should be a bit bigger and overlapping the top green strip - it seems like something should be there. Also I don't really like the font /gradient of the the text that appears over the images. How about a nice semi-transparent grey overlay for the text instead? Otherwise good
