Improved Site For Review

[hammerstein_04]

Hi,
I have been working on a site for the past few weeks and wanted some feedback as to what you guys think of it. Basically, the owner let me practice and give her a site 3 years ago when I started with PHP. As my skills have improved slightly since then, I offered to redo the site, getting rid of some of the chaff that was there.

They won't win any design awards, I wasn't out for that. But I think the colours work ok, not too repetetive and decent enough to read from.

I'm most proud because this is the first site I have put my own forum system onto that is on the web. I originally wrote them for my site, but I was amazed it only took like 3 hours to adapt (few tables and some code) .. considering I didn't really write the most reusable code was quite interesting!

Anyways, opinions as always are appreciated. Validation isn't something, I'm too worried about for the moment as I'm still working on them, but this is a noticeable milestone in the sites redevelopment, so figured I would take the opportunity

Only one small complaint, you need some padding between the password text input, and the submit button. This site wins an award with me, great job.

Thanks for that erisco, I added a dummy li between the input and the button, just with an   in the meantime, now I think it's too far away, so when I get home I'll play with the spacing a little.

I don't want to make this a separate thread, so I'll ask in here, what are peoples opinions on my forums? I know you can't test them out without a login, but in terms of readability and style, any thoughts? If anybody is interested I'll configure a dummy user to test the forums with, just PM me.

Looks quite nice and fairly tidy, though I have a horizontal scroll if I view at 800*600


I'm quite impressed with the forum. Only bad thing I can say is the horizontal scroll. Nice job

[hammerstein_04]

Thanks for that Alien. Just that little niggling scroll. that'll be with accounting for IE. I'll try and get it fixed.

Very very nice design Hammerstein_04! The colors go very well together and you did a nice job with the banner and layout....
