Have been using this design for a month or so now and would like a bit of feedback. Be critical of both design and content if you like.

Hey I really like this: the use of greys with the splash of pink is excellent!

 

For me just two things; the nav on hover effect lets it down a wee bit.... makes it look less attractive than before which is a shame.

 

Also I find everything a bit too wide which although still looks pretty good, worries me a I have a pretty good res (1440 x 900) and it worries me what it may do on a more basic display.

 

Nice job tho

Terry Tibbs, charge plug and toe straps fifteen quid...talk to me

 

It all feels very retro and if that's your angle its very good

 

You have some very interesting class names too.

<div class="****">

 

 

EDIT:

Oh..hehe the forum censored it. For those curious it started and ended with a 'T'.

very funny "class"

 

Love the pink with the grey

 

Agree with the hover - does let it down.

 

I think I will always end up saying this cause of screen size but the background repeats so it didnt look great till I shrunk the window. (but looked fine when re-sizedto 10" view)

yeah the background was a trade off between file size and if it would repeat on large backgrounds

 

and yeah, my css and class names are a mess! i can never be bothered to tidy up. the t**t class name came about from the 'twitter' version of the 'cat' class... in the same way that content became 'twontent'

Works for me! Although you should know that chrome has a weird rendering bug with dotted borders which looks really unpleasant.

i cant get chrome, anyone nice enough to take a screenshot?

I can't get this weird behaviour with the dots?

 

 

That's on chrome by the way ^^

me neither

looks fine in Chrome, Firefox, IE and Safari so good job, the static background makes me feel a little dizzy though but that is personal.

 

it all works

 

but I agree with Guezala about the hover effect.
