My Portfolio!

[Rakien]

Hello everyone! Here's my first post so go easy on me!

Well, it's been a while since I've been wanting to create a portfolio of my own and finally it has been (somewhat) done! Personaly, I think I did a pretty good job but now it's up to the public to give the ultimate judgment.

Here's the site: www.freewebs.com/audroue

(Yes, I know I need a better host, I also need to buy a domain name but since I'm lacking money these two things will have to wait a bit longer... )

Thanks everyone!

The only thing I'm wondering about - the central part of the page sticks out on either side beyond the top and bottom. Is that a fault or a feature?

Hmm... I'm sorry but I don't see what you mean...

EDIT: Do you mean the white line on the button which is supposed to represent a surface?

Hey just so you know if Rakien.com is available! and it is only 8.95 at godaddy.com If that is your real name.

I wish my name was available but it turns out that some one else has my parentally afflicted name of Bob.
No offense to the great Bobs on this forum. I am proud of my Bobhood. I just wish I owned Bob.com

I'm gonna have a meeting with the Bob's - Office Space.

I've attached an image - ringed in red you can see that the centre is wider than the top or bottom. looks a bit odd to me, but it might be intended.

Yeah, I just noticed that it does that when you use Internet Explorer. In firefox and Opera that doesn't happen. Does anyone how I can remove these bars which are only found in Internet Explorer?

I also have to change those PMG images because they're not transparent in IE...I hate IE...

Thanks.

Lol no my real name isn't Rakien but I think I'm going to buy a domain today at 1and1.com since it's very cheap there.

[Campbell]

Wow you are right 1and1.com has better prices than godaddy. Thanks for the tip!

Hey I really like the design of your site. I am making my site as well, but I constantly change it and haven't set my mind over the design yet, since it contains too many features, like my work, projects that do not relate to graphics etc... I considered the use of Frames as you did, but I'm afraid that it will become buggy.

Do you suggest creating frames? Or maybe I should invest more in DHTML windows (Though I'm nut sure yet how to make them completely)?

I can confirm the odd 'wings' that appear on your site in IE. As much as you might hate IE, 65% of your visitors will be using it.

A couple of other points that I would raise is the use of multiple scroll bars in the portfolio section and image size.

You should try to avoid horizontal scroll bars. This is why the majority of sites are still created to fit an 800 x 600 pix resolution. I attach a screen grab of your site with duplicate horizontal & vertical scroll bars.

The Square2 image link is 205Kbs in size (50 seconds download for a dial up connection!) and leads to a 404 error page. The link to the Zeitum page just leads to 426Kbs screen shot of what?

I don't wish to be negative, but you did ask for comments. Where is your content? Apart from the aquarium (nearly 300Kbs) where's your portfolio?

Hello everyone! I'm back and I need help . I've been learning a bit of CSS and I've finaly decided to completely recode my website so that it is 100% CSS.

For some reason this page doesn't want to display correctly...Could anyone here please tell me what they think I have done wrong? Thanks.
