    css suggestions?

    I think a maroon or black. You could get away with a blue or orange. If the contrasting color stands out, it must be used sparingly though.

    css suggestions?

    still don't like the orange/red for some reason. i am also unsure of the colored text/links throughout the page. just don't feel like it meshes well. takes away from the professionalism you had. see post above for suggestions. i might try that maroon out for links with a possible hover over...

    Should I change something ?

    I'm still saying #333333 is better than black. You're hurting eyes and that doesn't make people come back.

    How well is my site designed?

    The loading image seems to be a background image. Technically it's faster, but as Leviathon pointed out, if there's an error on the page, it might be viewable. Also double checked what he said and he's right, it's not cross browser yet. As for the space around the border, that's cuz the...

    Should I change something ?

    I went to your site and I just went blind. It's like not going outside for days and then looking at the sun... the combination is devastating. Please don't use bright colors with a dark background.

    How could you create a website lije this?

    randommaker.... hahaha... I'm so unsure of what you're asking. The navbar is just HTML/possibly server-side scripted. And the site is nothing special. It's on each of the pages. I'm responding to this post because I think what you're really asking about is the navbar image (button highlight)...

    css suggestions?

    While i do like those greens, your site is more of a teal and less of a primary color. That means you're going to find it's a little harder to find nice contrasting colors that are easy on the eyes - this is something graphic artists do very well. For some reason I'm pulled back to that...

    css suggestions?

    I am really impressed with the changes you've made. I know I suggested it, but I really like. Then again, I'm just one user and everyone's got their opinion. I am not sure about the red/orange yet. I'm thinking a little less contrast in the header, but it does stand out, which is the point...

    Feedback welcome

    the header image/menu is centered on all the pages. the header menu font also looks kind of blurry and not sharp. you could probably use more color (or a pattern in your background). i wouldn't say the tone is bad, but you could make it a little more artsy. i would also say the header is...

    css suggestions?

    Right, so it's not so much having more, but seemingly more. Trick the eye, not the reader. I think one proponent of this is to use a little larger font size. It looks like you're using 11px. First off, before I address that, let me tackle the first problem. 11px (keyword:pixel) is a size...

    MySQL vs PostgreSQL

    x10 is running 8.1 I believe. I'm not exactly sure what version of Linux they're running, but I know PostgreSQL 8.1 is part of the Red Hat package. And if you go into Postgres, in the SQL interface you can just type "Select version();" and it'll pop up the version :) I'm trying to get them to...

    MySQL vs PostgreSQL

    Not a problem. We here don't have much control over the database configurations themselves, but there are so many settings to tweak (kind of like a computer) to speed it up if we did. Most of them involve how big the storage size is for memory calls. You don't need a big block size if your...

    MySQL vs PostgreSQL

    That is what drove me to x10, because I, like you, could not find one. Now I've found several, but I've grown fond of the owner and the support staff here, so how could I leave? Part of the reason I posted some of those links is because I've read a lot of comparisons between the two, but the...

    css suggestions?

    I looked at how you had things coded and you were primarily using paragraphs around everything. So my suggestions were the fastest way to get the effect without changing your design or CSS that much. Ideally, you want to use the combination of text-align:center in the parent DIV and margin:0...

    css suggestions?

    For the purpose of my response, I am addressing: www.freecrm.x10hosting.com and not the csstest link you posted later ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I agree, but I also say you should center everything except the text in the left container...

    They should just restore everyone's at once. You can automate across all databases. That would be best for the support system and for everyone.

    MySQL vs PostgreSQL

    I think a lot of users aren't familiar with Postgres, which is why I see a lack of use. -- That and turnkey web solutions seem to default to the PHP/MySQL combination, which users don't know or want to modify. While I can't do anything about #2 for those that don't know much about editing their...

    The server's been up. It's live and kicking. Edit: Note that there are hundreds of tickets in. I'm not advising to go to IRC and ask, I'm just saying you might be able to get lucky. I've waited a month before with no response on a ticket. Just the facts of life on a free server.
