Comment on the look and feel

Submitted by ares on


tell me what you like, what you don't. this is our house here. we don't necessarily need to have it look identical to everone else's on the block, do we?

important note: i'm using style sheets for these guys, which means that if you do something like use a <font> tag to change your color, its recommended that you use <br> as your line separator instead of hitting enter. otherwise you'll end up with something like this:

someone hit enter here

because the site inserts <p> tags, which have a defined style, so that everythingshares the text color.

I think the snow needs to look more like FLAKES- maybe not have to move around-just still and not all over the board-maybe a border or just the sides gently in a white color on this blue background.

and when you reload the screen or hit the # button it shows a nice blue instead of white when changing over screens---nice, but some may not like it-I like it-it's not so bright

is this part of my training, dear? color coordination?

i'll see what i can do about the background. with a bit of work i may be able to make it fade from white to the blue.

need some music....

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep

Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling thru
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true

So this is love, Mmmmmm
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine
I'm all aglow, Mmmmmm
And now I know
The key to all heaven is mine

My heart has wings, Mmmmmm
And I can fly
I'll touch ev'ry star in the sky
So this is the miracle that I've been dreaming of
Mmmmmm
Mmmmmm
So this is love

Cinderella, Cinderella
All I hear is Cinderella, from the moment I get up
till shades of night are falling
There isn't any letup, I hear them calling, calling
"Go up and do the attic and go down and do the cellar, you can do them
both together
Cinderella."

How lovely it would be
if I could live in my fantasy
But in the middle of my dreaming
they're screaming
at me
Cinderella

You still have not gotten rid of that maroon/gold thing at the top of this thread-it doesn't match the soothing blues.

cool artemis. now we just need the background transparent :)

Artemis The Huntress

jep, need to work on the colors, whats the number of your background color?

Fri, 08/23/2002 - 5:45 AM Permalink
ares

the light blue is b4e4e7, the text color, and that of the border is 374e86. but you should probably use the transparency feature of the gifs. that way the background can change, but will still show through the image. for details, take the cooler crew logo, as its on a transparent background.

i know, but since the only languages other than english i have half a chance of communicating with anyone in are french and spanish. and even after 7 years away from it i'm still not half bad at french.

Artemis The Huntress

Gotta love French : ) it was my second language too, but they made us take spanish, german and russian for a quarter each, and I've retained a little of that.

russian would be cool.

Fri, 08/23/2002 - 6:47 AM Permalink
Artemis The Huntress

Russian was probably the hardest, because of the difference in alphabet and phonetics, but was cool.
