first of all, successful applicants for affiliation need to post their url. i have to now go and type the url in your email in and hope it works.

investigating the website... sorry i don't want to affiliate with you, mainly because your website is sliced in imageready, and it uses iframes. it's also not the style of website i would like visitors to my website to see in my affiliates.

good luck.

The slices don't line up properly for me (that may be because I use firefox but I couldn't be bothered to check it out in IE. It is 12:43)

Also here and the making an energy blast tutorial are looking pretty similar and since your site is relativly new and you obviously know about biorust i'm just a little suspicious.

I have been around the bush here and i am pretty sure flaming this guy wont help out any. If your not interested then just leave it be. Constructive crits are cool but you came off really harsh scrowler

just my 2 cents. Also what is wrong with image ready. I know there is a lot of other forms of slicing tools that are a lot easier but it could be the persons prefrence. Anyway, I like the site but as onbrid says in Firefox it gets ripped apart due to the scroll bars used. The CSS scrollers for some reason don't work so hot in Firefox. I have not taken the time to figure it out yet but thats is just how it is.

Also just a little help with your code, as i just noticed this as well. Your tags should all be lower case. And you should conatain all your CSS code into one instance of STYLE tags.

Once again like the layout, easy to navigate etc.

yeh sorry. re: imageready: it puts in way too many unnecessary images. this guy posted a imageready website on bluesfear a while ago with 77 images. i could've done it in 1.

nghstudios · 01-04-2005

Wow, sorry if you guys really hate my site.

Stiker · 01-04-2005

didnt say i hated it. Just saying it needs some tweaking. I rather like the idea and layout. just trying to help

Yeah and i agree scrowler imageready does put in way to many images. what other slicer would u recomend? i currently use image ready and agree it leaves way to many images. Dreamweaver maybe?

onbrid · 01-05-2005

Sorry if I gave you the impresion that I hated it as well. My post wasn't very constructive. You have some good design ideas. [rant] If you look at the pic bellow it shows how your site is displayed in firefox and well it doesn't look pretty. If you're a small site every hit counts and if you're selling something this is even more so. Most people decide if they're going to stay at your site in the first few seconds they're there. If a firefox user goes to your site the chances are they are not going to even look at the templates. I know it sounds harsh but it's true they see your front page and they will asume you can't code and they won't want to pay money for something they cannot guarentee is good quality. More and more people are using firefox and I think it would be worth your while to get the problem fixed. [/rant]

I hope that helps you in some way.

Ok, I agree but how do I fix that problem?

BTW I never sliced my images in ImageReady.

BlodoPKNZ · 01-16-2005

Its bad table usage. Put the images as background or use valign.

nghstudios · 01-17-2005

Well I slice it in photoshop. Save as Web. Then open Dreamweaver. When I click on one of my slices (button) and add a link to it, it auto. puts it into a table. So get rid of tht?

EdgarB · 01-24-2005

i must say, i also slice my websites with imR, but now i see your comments i wonder: what programm should i use?

Yumemigusa · 01-26-2005

I hand code my websites, no generators here. You might wanna consider using div layers...they're a lot easier to work with.

Dreamweaver adds in a lot of unnecessary coding, that's why I (and many of my web designer friends) prefer to handcode. That way I know what goes into my sites and how it comes out. Cross browser testing is also a good idea, not just in IE and Firefox, but Opera and Mosaic as well...Opera has an issue with Java scripts that ppl need to be aware of.

*pokes scrowler* There's nothing wrong with frames or iframes, mate. As long as you use them wisely....I wouldn't do without them (mainly cuz I can't code a table if I tried...*grins*)

nghstudios · 02-20-2005

I found the problem. It was my iframes. I tried making them shorter (height) and it was fixed. Problem solved!!
