FIRST PROPER SITE

Featured Replies

There is a bug with your links in Firefox as I can't click on any of them except for Client Login, and your layout breaks in IE6.

 

I don't like how the layout changes so drastically, you should think about trying to incorporate the main page into the other pages some how and also allow the user the ability to jump from one page to another rather than always having to go back to the main page its a little annoying. Plus your other pages are very bland so it would help them if you did something more with them.

 

I don't get why the footer is on two lines, if you want to separate them it might be better to have one bit on the right and the other on the left, but two lines gives an awkward bit of space at the bottom of the site.

Hi, welcome to WDF :)

Regarding your site, everything that Dizi ^ has said plus:

For a fairly straight forward layout like this, you are using about 32 divs!

A lot of these should really be paragraphs instead.

I would have the top navigation as an unordered list instead of a series of divs.

In fact the whole home page could probably be written as 2 lists, one (the top nav) nested inside the other.

I would also look at using css for the image rollovers instead of the clunky javascript method generated by Dreamweaver.

Overall, however, I like the look of the site. :)

I never looked at the code, as I figured due to the broken bits it was broken and needed fixed.

 

As Elanman has said what you should do is look at coding your site cleanly and not rely on divs for everything. Divs are only good if you use them correctly, use them badly and its just like still using tables for a layout.

Quite like the design, don't like the random stock photography. Your logo also looks kind of basic and amateurish in comparison to the actual site.

The images are "non-sequiter" meaning that they have little relevance to the services being provided. Also, I recommend smoother text, maybe learning how to create text in photoshop for links.

1) Navigation on the sub-pages please.

 

2) If you're going to be a professional web designer, you should at least make sure your portfolio works cross-browser.

 

3) Why is your URL webdesign and your site title media design?

 

4) Those images on your homepage should match what they're supposed to be portraying.

 

5) Those rollovers on the homepage look tacky, and don't link to anything. :(

 

6) Your links page really isn't needed. Why would you want to help people leave your portfolio, especially to go to template monster? If they can use template monster, why would they want to hire you?
