GRC 175 Learning and Discussion Forum

Hello Comrades,

I have spent many a weekend using notepad to create one of my pages. Used Dreamweaver for the roll overs but otherwise everything was coded my hand.

I like your theme and the fact you can talk like a Russian! I think the word Web should sit in front of the bar instead of behind and maybe you could consider having some of your info coming out of the gun instead of covering it. Just a thought...

When you mean web are you talking about the banner? Also I do agree that the overlapped type on the image is kinda of a issue but I am working on a script so that the background image will change randomly when you refresh the page. Thanks for your input Trisa!

Chris, I really like this page. The color choices you've made work well. I also really like the drawing. I can't remember if you said it was one you did. The idea of having the image change is a great idea, I would love to know how that's done.

Great job.

Thanks Denise, I did draw both images. Michael said that the best way to do that is to use Java script to randomly select a style sheet and have each style sheet have a different image (since its a container background).
How to go about that should be a fun learning experience.

I like it too. Awesome!

Very clean design. Try making the black bar behind your bio and skills longer, yet not the full length of that container. I would like to see the Facebook and Deviant Art logo in the same style as your other buttons, but I don't know if there are legal issues with that. Aside from that. Me gusta.

Hey Alex,

I would like to have the DArt logo and Facebook logo orange, however I know that Facebook is incredibly sue happy. Im not too sure if Deviant Has rules on that but I felt that it wouldn't be a bad idea to have the two original logos the way the where.

Randomizing backgrounds?! Monochromatic color scheme?! Dynamic header design?!

Sweet Jesus, thats good.

was my reaction last night. The only issue is that I only have two backgrounds the chances of the same background image popping up are extremely high.
