rate my test template please

[alanthepigeon]

i have created a template layout for my site, and i would gratfully apreciate it if you would check it out and give me your thoughts on it. it is located at

www.alsgames.x10hosting.com/template.htm

i am an amatuer at webdesign of course, and i really only used tables and suff, so dont expect it to be any good. i only did it on microsoft word, so i havent deleted all of the unnessesary code.

also, please tell me if the images are broken, it happens occasionly to me.

thanks.

Yeah all the images are not working, and I dont like the design at all :/

 

[alanthepigeon]

thanks, looks like ill have to try again...

 

[n4tec]

i do not like the layout....

try learning html and getting an EDITOR.. FrontPage is a good application for begineers and try Dreamweaver too..

http://www.alleycode.com/ <-- try Alley code.. i have not used it but it is free..

 

[alanthepigeon]

ah, alleycode, i tried that, and didnt have a clue. and i used to use those editors, but my computers data had to be formatted recently after hal.dll mysteriously went missig, so i dont have those editors anymore.

and i cant use front page or dreamweaver, they cost money.

either way, ive tried something out, coud you please check to see if the images are showing up now?

I also don't like it at all. The color is good but the layout is very bad and I just don't like the font. I am sorry to say but 3/10. I think you could make it better by changing the font and adding more sontent sections.

BTW: I like that quote of Bill Clinton.

 

[alanthepigeon]

so do the images show up now, and also, what dont you like about the layout? i need to know to see if it is within my abilities to make it better. (i am rubbish if you didnt notice)

EDIT: i think i have got the images working, please let me know what you think and how to actually improve it

 

[limelight]

Some of the pictures are in the wrong places. Try downloading Dreamweaver and moving them around.

 

[alanthepigeon]

could you use print screen and show me what it appears like for you?

if you are talking about:
flash with the word games under
and "games" with "finished," "demos" and "abandoned"

they are meant to be like that, "finished," "demos" and "abandoned" are subcategories of "games" and "flash games" are two words as one category name.

if you did not mean that, please use print screen to show me how it appears, and give me suggestions on how to improve it, your help is reatly appreciated!

P.S. i cant use dreamweaver, as it costs a lot of money.

i give it a 3/10 and here's how it looks to me

Hi! Frank chitwa here. Just looked at your site. Kind of of balance. You need to add more photos and realistic graphics, tone down on the drawings!

 

[NielsJanssen]

btw it looks almost perfect in ie so you just have to make it firefox compatible
for the ie look i give the site a 7/10

 

[alanthepigeon]

ok, thanks for print screening, it helped me a lot. at least ive finally got the images working.

i have tried looking at my site using firefox (i previewed using internet explorer because on my computer firefox is acting weird and needs to be reinstalled) and after editing it a bit, it looks ok for me, except, all the tables that would usually have invisible borders on internet explorer have thin black borders on firefox. Could anybody please tell me why this happens and any solutions?

3/10

At least you tried.

 

[alanthepigeon]

could you please suggest how i could improve it?

 

[r0gUe]

thats how it looks on mine too but i dont like the design its too plain and simple

 

[NielsJanssen]

i'd love to help you but the coding in your site is part normal HTML and for another part a codinglanguage i've never seen in my life. try to get rid of that and rebuild your site using only HTML

 

[alanthepigeon]

you are probably reffering to the junk code ms word dumps on as the unrecognisable code. i would build my site with html, but i cant do anything good with it. the best ive done so far is this:

that was an old template i did in html, but this time i used ms word as the old one was rubbish.
