Hi guys could you give me some feedback on my site

 

Does it look to cluttered?

 

www.cfforums.co.uk

Hi

 

it makes no sense why part of your Current Stats has a boarder around it. It also might be a good idea to add abit more space between the lines as they look to close together.

 

Same with your bullet points add a little bit of line space not much just a little more then you have, that will give a little bit more illusion of space, make it easier to read and give a slightly better look.

 

 

The highlight on your links is good, but as you are using two different colours (top is slightly darker) when it hovers that colour change is smaller so it makes it look wrong, extend the top colour on your hover so that it is the same size as the one on your normal. That way when it is hovers over it doesn't look so strange

(in the image below left side shows how it is now, right shows what I mean as my explanation is a bit crap )

 

 

The google search on your forum is just a white box, it doesn't look like there is an input form, so it looks a little strange

 

 

Are you going to use the same style on all pages? as a the moment the site has 3 different styles to it, the main page, create a forum, directory are all different so it doesn't seem like you are on the same site when you go on the links. They don't have to be exactly the same but its always good to have some key features on the pages so that users know they are still on the same site.

Ok take a look now all i have done so far is the main page will do the rest in a bit

yo, your server is broke

All fixed, was mod rewrite just did change to .htaccess script to make all hosted forums url more search engine friendly

 

*Edit* ok all done apart from the google search bar not sure what is going on there

 

how is it now?

Ok... well

 

the menu wraps in Firefox 2.0.0.6U, the N&S Web design is on its own line.

This causes the content shift rightwards by about 200px

 

also, i can't even see the search bar that Dizi mentions.

 

the tell a friend box jumps about a couple of pixels when i scroll.

 

pretty much everything in the right hand column needs padding.

it's ok I guess

wow... very comprehensive there alex.

it's ok I guess

 

teehee, its nice to know that constructive criticisms is alive and well

 

If its just ok what could be done to make it better? likes and dislikes of the site? I mean you only guess its ok, does that mean it could be better in your eyes?

nice site...ahm why is the support forum design different than the main page design?...i don't get it

Thanks for the criticisms guys thats what i wanted the reason the forum is different is because the script i have hosts multiple forums from one set of phpbb files so if i change them it will change all hosted forums so if there is another way i could get it looking more like the main page without having t change the forum files that would be great.

hey - nice logo...

Lol ye it is very nice some very nice person made it for me lol

Ok guys so i finally got it all looking a little better is there anything ells you think i could improve

padding in the sidebar

Ok now i am not a pro so what do you mean by the padding on sidebar?

sorry, i mean:

 

add some padding (with css => padding: 5px; ) to the sidebar (the area on the right), as the text is currently right up against the edges and it looks odd.

ok this is my side nave css a had a go but it went weird where would i add it

 

/* sub navigation */
.sidenav {
float: right;
width: 210px;
}
.sidenav h2 {
color: #1C455E;
font-size: 1em;
line-height: 30px;
margin: 0;
padding-left: 12px;
}
.sidenav ul {
padding: 0;
border-top: 1px solid #D8EBD8;
}
.sidenav li {border-bottom: 1px solid #D8EBD8;}
.sidenav li a {
font-size: 1.1em;
color: #1C455E;
display: block;
padding: 8Px 0 8Px 5%;
text-decoration: none;
width: 95%;
}
.sidenav li a:hover {
background-color: #EBF0F3;
color: #2E7198;	
}

probably in the .sidenav li section

tried that didn't do anything

just hte .sidenav then.
