ramo55 reacted to gadgetgirl in can i do this?Assuming you know php, this is easily accomplished.
3: the users selection is stored - set up the link so that the url to the linked page includes the id of the image e.g.
<a href="example.php?imageId=x"> <img src="imagefile.ext" /></a>
4: the user is taken to the next page, where he must enter some details such as email and name etc... - in example.php have a form which reads in the image id which will be stored in $_GET; display and validate a form with the user details you require.
5: this info is sent to my email and then the user is taken to a thank you page - example.php should email the form data and redirect the user to the thank you page if the form data passes validation checks.

ramo55 got a reaction from teodora in comment with your ideas and tipswow, i guess thanks for the comments and overall welcoming talk and the support, i am actually considering this as a job, i enjoy it as a hobby if im honest, and would like to learn some languages and be doing this as a hobby/career.
so anyway thanks for your comments, i will try and keep you guys updated with whatever really, and let you know how things go.
This forum is really friendly if im honest, its pretty amazing!!!!!

ramo55 reacted to teodora in comment with your ideas and tipsIt is great that you are learning and doing it yourself. You will get there I know it takes time.
I would suggest to make your slider takes full width and left align the 3 boxes underneath, so they are on the left side. Also put "Fix and repair" on one line, if that makes sense.
It is great that you are doing it yourself, do you intend to make web design a career, or are you learning HTML and CSS just to build this particular site?
If you are not planning to make it a career, I would say it would be much easier and faster for you to use a template - maybe have a look at ThemeForest?
However, if you intend to become a professional web designer, you are doing well so far, keep learning and you will get there

ramo55 reacted to Alluziion in How to do this?It's called a Wrapper.
It's basically one big DIV or (sometimes separated into smaller divs) that contains the all the content of your website.
To create it, all you need to do is create a DIV in your HTML... (as Ryan pointed out).
<body> <div id="wrapper"> <!-- everything inside the white box goes here --> </div> </body>
and in your CSS...
#wrapper { width: 1000px; /* how wide you want the wrapper (white box) to be */ margin: 0 auto; /* this centres the box but a width needs to be defined for it to work */ background: white; /* whatever colour/image you want the box to use */ }
You can add other styles too such as a border or a box-shadow (or no styles and just use it centre your content!).
For the width I'd use something between 1,000px and 960px (I personally would use 1,000px).
Also, if you don't want to get TOO gritty with CSS you could always style it inline (although you should learn to master CSS as it's a necessity in front-end development).
An example of inline style...
<div style="width:1000px; margin:0 auto; background: white;" id="wrapper"> <!-- content --> </div> -
ramo55 reacted to Alluziion in how can i do this in photoshop?If you're using the graphics on your own commercial website then you can't just go and copy someone else's design; you can take inspiration from it by all means but yours needs to be different.
I would sit down and attempt some Photoshop tutorials first because it seems like you're trying to run before you can walk. You claim to know the basics of Photoshop but those images ARE very basic
Some squares, some text and the basic outline of laptops and in addition to that, it can all be done with CSS and no images whatsoever! (except for the background, it would be better to use an image for that).
I can see that your anxious and eager to complete your website but you need to sit down and take your time before you overload yourself and consequently give up.

ramo55 reacted to BrowserBugs in Question about layout?Also I see at the top the black box does not touch the top. If you want the content to scroll under the top background then you will need to create a fixed header to mask the scroll which can be done with z-index. Attached is an example of fixed head (and foot) where the content scrolls under. Not sure from your sketch if this is the case.

ramo55 reacted to Alluziion in How Do I Do This?Most graphics can be recreated with CSS now but it's not always convenient and although they do hold benefits over images in terms of rendering and scaling, they are still time-consuming to make and often result in poor HTML techniques such as empty DIVs so the decision of whether to use an image or recreate something with CSS is often a debatable topic and personally, if it takes roughly the same amount of time or the image needs to be rescaled (such as in RD) then I use CSS otherwise images work just fine.
Thanks! I'm glad that my sleep deprivation was worth the effort lol.
I'll try to add the other features today if possible but not sure when so I'll edit the post when it's done.
As for how to implement it... I'm assuming your new to CSS so learn the language and have a play around as some of the features that I've used are new and relatively advanced (such as gradients and RGBa colours).
To apply it you can either either place the code between <style> tags in your head like this...
<head> <title>Blah</title> <style> /* All Your CSS goes here */ </style> </head>
Or put the code into a separate .css file and reference it in the head like this...
<head> <title>Blah</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/stylesheet.css"> </head>
EDIT: Just made some more tweaks, I've attempted to edit the scrollbar but I couldn't do it perfectly without using Javascript and I wanted to maintain CSS purity but hopefully you can view the code and see how things work

ramo55 reacted to Alluziion in How Do I Do This?I think it's a great idea!
A nicely organised library of CSS3 resources!
Good call!

ramo55 reacted to andy9l in Question about layout?Use this on body:
background-size:cover; background-attachment:fixed; background-position:0px 0px; background-image:url(your/image/file.png); Then create a wrapper and pad as necessary to create the frame effect you want...
Edit: As Alluziion mentioned, it's going to be very difficult to get this to work across all resolutions - if it's even possible.

ramo55 reacted to teodora in How Do I Do This?That is nice Can you make the icons with CSS only? I believe there was a special icons font.
Edit: Found the icons font - http://css-tricks.com/flat-icons-icon-fonts/
-
ramo55 reacted to Alluziion in How Do I Do This?Most of that is done without any images at all and just by using HTML and CSS.
I've made a quick example to show you... it should have taken about 15 minutes but I'm ridiculously tired as it's 01:23 here so I haven't fussed with the icons because they would take too much time but see the link below for a replica complete with source code. If you're interested then maybe I could add the icons tomorrow to demonstrate.

ramo55 reacted to dap in Help with making button designopen it up in photoshop and see how it's made (zoom in if you need to) then copy some of the colours from the button for your own gradient. it would be easier to make in illustrator or fireworks... but if you want to use PS then
draw a rounded rectangle with a radius of 2-3px
choose gradient overlay from fx menu
edit the gradient and sample some colours from the button e.g. from the top, middle and bottom
add text and apply a subtle drop shadow to it
it looks clean because the transition from one shade to another is very gradual
see for details http://pp.kpnet.fi/prescott/stuff/blue-button.psd
