I would like to discourage you from investing your time into learning javascript as it is a dying language. (Not JAVA, differet things!) Since you are so young, I suggest mastering HTML and start chipping away at your creative figure to develop your own style. I do not know your future goals, however, dynamic content is advanced, and I suggest learning to walk before you start running. (Or you might end up limping).

You make it sound as if HTML was difficult.
I've practically mastered it, if I don't remember something just check the internet and its done.
Javascript may be a dying language, (which I havn't noticed) but its still good for dynamic web pages. It also gives some experience with the basic programming/scripting functions, such as loops, variables, etc.

HTML is not as easily mastered as you might believe. Not to be detrimental to your current layout, but your ...
"Without it, the rest of the site looks terrible, and with it, that happens. I think thats what it is, anyway." doesn't sound mastered to me. It is good, but when you begin to use photoshop to create your complete layout followed by slicing and 'formatting' into tables using HTML, you might be up for a considerable challenge.

Javascript is in fact, a dying language, and while it is good for learning variables and loops, php might be a better learning experience for you (and more beneficial)...,,, ASP.NET is the future.

I'll check what ASP.net is, never heard of it. Well maybe once..
Doesn't photoshop cost 100+ dollars?
I have Jasc PSP 9, which I bought in russia with a whole pack of other software for 3 dollars or so. (Different currency in russia). I'll look into all that u said, but I doubt I'll get photoshop anytime soon.

The site looks fairly done, though its not professionaly done. Like everything theirs a few bugs or errors.

Make the banner touch the actuall top of the webpage, becuase it looks better and right now it looks weird with the planet just choped in half...

Pink on the scroll bar dosen't go with orange, red, green, black, white and yellow.

Your front page is called Clan History, it might be confusing for new commers to your site.


These are only opinions!

Turns out I have Adobe photoshop 8 CS. I'll install it when I can shifty.gif

People,I meant more like comments on layout, 'move shoutbox here, it'll look better, navigation will look better here' that kind of stuff. The other comments are helpful 2, though biggrin.gif

You need better smilies. The only one I like is this one [attachmentid=15872]

I will try to make something out... So you want them to be silver?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Centreri on 2005-12-07 at 16:44:08
Can't argue with that logic. I think so too, but thats not my priority right now.
Learning photoshop, layers are annoying.

I think I'll use the same basic ones as in forums.. But if you can make silver ones that look similar of the basic emotions, it will be great. Dont forget an evil one sly.gif

First of all, is it legal to copy the smilies?
If it isn't, copy the ones I have instead. I can send you the file.

The page would look better if you made the top margin 0.
HTML
<style>BODY { margin:0 5 5 5; }</style>

If you want to change the margins from that to something else, it is set up like
CODE
margin:top right bottom left;
(Just in case you didn't know wink.gif)

I don't know CSS that much yet, started using it recently. I'll try that, thanks a lot happy.gif

Oh, and DEAD, someone was impersonating you in my shoutbox. Just thought you ought to know. At first I was suspicious because he/she didn't post their name in caps, then checked IP address, and sure enough, different from yours. I deleted the post and forgot to save IP address.

EDIT: It worked. Thanks a lot biggrin.gif.

Done.

I'm currently working on navigation system, but I seem to have a bit of trouble with Javascript Preload..
And I'm making a DHTML tutorial.

Navigation seems to be in order, next order of buisness is creating register/login system out of the forums. This is going to be a big project >:D
EDIT: Done with the basics, now I hove to use PHP to connect to MYSQL Database
and give a way for other users to present it, as well as making the 'register' part of it, lol.
