So as of now, i've finished up the pages - and redid the colors after that one comment. Not sure, but I think it looks pretty cool. Try to ignore any ugliness from the facebook like area - I wasn't able to stylize the text - just the background, so that's about it…Anyway, everything looks pretty awesome, IMO, and it actually shows up rather well on my android (Galaxy Prevail). I'm a bit miffed at the fact that it draws INLINE box-shadows but it doesn't draw them outside (nor text-shadow). I won't complain THAT much though - it's not too bad.Amazingly it looks fairly decent in IE9, too. Not incredibly pretty like in Firefox, but not disgusting for once. I wish they'd support text-shadow though.Any other suggestions for color scheme? Perhaps any design changes? I'll probably be altering the navbar/adding a few extra links underneath the main bar (contact, links, etc.) but other than that, I think it works pretty nicely.….Now… I'll either go try to get some sleep, being satisfied I got stuff done, or my mind will force me to tweak around with my minecraft server page (or begin a re-design).BTW…. you guys want any kind of a site made for your server? Just for the hell of it? I promise I won't go Microsoft (or apple) on you and put my name over everything. :D
EDIT: Site is fully up. CRITIQUE PL0X
Would you want me to mess around with it/give you some ideas/mess around in photoshop?
I guess it's just a lot of messing around in the end.Here are my thoughts:
I don't like the colors. The purple color and all the different shades of blue make it all a bit "mushy". The use of all the different text-effects don't help either, I think. You should really just blow out the box which is the site-content, and get rid of the big purple background. It leaves so much space that could be used better.My five cents!I agree with the actual page being too small, but at the moment it doesn't seem as though you need the space :P . I don't like the reflection of "Eagle Design Media".
In fact, the whole site looks a bit too glossy :| .There's my 10 cents!I like the colors.
Oh yeah, the colours are nice too.
Even though your website doesn't follow much modern standards, which I hate (which you all know), I think the website looks 'not bad'.
I do like the site overall, but the colors do seem a bit… off. It's hard to explain, but the contrast between the light gray and the blue is a bit jarring. I think it may be the gray; try making it a dark dark gray maybe.
Also, get a better picture of yourself up, one with a smile!Pretty nice job overall.ALSO I LIKED YOU ON TEH FACEBOOKZ@ sir Xemic You mean you hate web standards, or not following them?
Well, I've changed it to go with a dark red - Red White and Blue theme (John's Graphics - my late father's company included that color scheme - I figured as "Eagle Design Media" is a tribute (his favorite animal, and the subject for his logo in several cases), I'd employ a similar look. Now the main dilemma - should I go for a more "white" context box (with dark blue/navy text or black text? Or should I keep with the current look?
