So I’ve been working off and on to get the site back to a reasonable level of presentation. I’m done with most of the basic fixes now, but I’m interested to hear your guys thoughts on the site. Does the layout look reasonably professional? Does the lightened box around things look stupid? These questions are pressing! (Don’t forget that it’s probably best to check on an archive page, considering the layout fail the Mango pages cause) Any opinion or advice is appreciated. I’m no professional at this site design thing, that’s for sure.
| As you comment (if you so choose), you may notice that all the blank avatars have been suddenly replaced with random KB characters. I uploaded some basic options that you can choose from if you don’t want to upload your own avatar. Tell me if you have any trouble with it or if any display incorrectly. I should probably make a non-administrative account to test it, but I… I don’t wanna? If you have a particular panel you’d like to be your avatar, just tell me and I’ll upload it to the set (assuming it isn’t a drawing I regret). I’ll probably go back and add some Mango ones now that I think about it. |

In other general goings-on, I’m currently fixing up some of the earlier Mango pages to send in to Scholastic. I’ll tell ya how that turns out. This weekend I’m leaving for a week trip to visit my sister and my mom, where I’ll be meeting my sister’s new dog. That’s Her—-> So. Goddamn. Cute. You know I will be spamming you with pictures at some point because PAPPY. In tertiary news, I’ve recently gotten a bug up my butt to start a Rainbow Brite redraw project of sorts. If you remember RB for ultimate nostalgia action, just hit up my dA gallery for the first 2. Of course, there is much to be done, so I’ll be trying not to spend ALL my time on such extravagances. *doodle Stormy doodle* |  |
New site looks good. Only weird bit is the Forward/Back navigation by the RSS link. You got nice links below the comic for that.
The layout is really neat, I like it. The colors are very pleasant. Though the highlight color (when you highlight text and stuff) is still the default red. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, and I’m not sure if that property works on other browsers.
Doggy = 3<
Bawwwwww… Doggie!
But in other news, the site looks pretty good in my opinion. I’m not much of an expert at website design but I can manage my way around it easily enough.
all in all I think it’s fine already. only thing I can point out that’s possible to fix is the link highlight color. It’s a little tough to see when you scroll over it, since it’s similar to the BG color. But on the other hand, I can’t think of another color for it :\
Don’t sweat it too much, the layout is very snazzy the way it is ^^
hmm as far as the ‘standard’ set of avatars, a good one might be what i’ve been trying to get wordpress to accept.
basically scaled down versions of one of these hearts
