Truefusion is now up for business. The site is all about tutorials. As i continue learning, i'll continue posting what i've learned on the website. You may request a tutorial by contacting me via the contact page on the site. For each request, i'll do research and post it on the site. If i am unable to make a tutorial from a request, i'll reply to the user giving him/her the reason on why i couldnt. So please, provide a valid email when contacting me to keep you updated on your request. If anyone thinks that one of the tutorials that's already there needs more info, or the info is false, please let me know.

Hmm, your sig still points to truefusion.vze.com. Might wanna fix that.

First things first: No firefox support?? That just decreased your rating down a bit. tongue.gif

Splash page? Why? Showing off skills? It's not really needed, and it's a little bit cliche.

The layout itself is pretty good. Nice colors overall. The banner at the top seems a little blank. Try moving the words "TrueFusion" to the center, so that it won't look empty.

I like how the trap17 button depresses once you mouse over. Perhaps consider using that effect for the navigation buttons. And the empty box next to "Webby" looks like a search box. Try moving the Google search box there instead.

Lastly, don't tell me that this is a template that you got from somewhere else...

That's why I think that you did not make this.

Anyway, the layout itself is pretty good, but since it only works in Internet Explorer, I'll give it a 2.9/5

Most of my friends use that url for my site, but it still goes to my site hosted on this host.

Lol, yea, but firefox doesnt support css that microsoft came up with (or at least i think they dont O_o). Which i find very useful.

xD Best to show off hard work tongue.gif. That alone took a few hours to get it all right.

Let's go through the good and bad points about the page...

Positives
  • Graphics
    I like the graphics on this site and they're fast to load which is a combination which is not achieved on many sites smile.gif
  • The Buttons
    When you put your mouseover the trap17 button it moves down. That's a great effect, make all your buttons do that.

Well, I think that's it for now. Going onto the negatives...

Negatives
  • Splash Page
    If there's one thing I can't see the point of in designing and that's having a splash page. What's the point in clicking two links to get to your site?
  • Shoutbox
    I don't mind shoutboxes but your's seems misplaced. It looks too much like it's there to fill up the space.It belongs on the right-hand side of the page.
  • Google Search
    Same as the shoutbox except it belongs right at the bottom.
  • Navigational Buttons
    When you click on your site's navigational buttons and the submenu comes up:
    1. It comes up in a funny place. I personally think that the menu should come up under the buttons instead of the left column
    2. It may be my eyes but I find it really hard to read the text. Don't make it bold

The splash page doesn't suit the whole theme. Sure.. it is in FLASH and it shows you can USE it.. but wtf..?

The shoutbox is misplace should be somewhere neater or should be wider.
Cool, good tutorials. Not much content but what's there is good.
The layout is really good except I think the green scrollbar is a bit dodgy, even though the color is used in the theme it still bolds itself out and makes it look "lonely"
Nothing bad about your site excet it looks half empty...or half full either way.

Because it doesn't work in firefox... and I had to pull myself to use ie to go on the site... i give it 3/5 oh and it also froze my computer because of bloody ie and all it's sppyware or whatever it has.

[1]And are most of friends here at trap17? I don't care whether you delete the vze account or not. I was just telling you to change the link in your sig. When someone here clicks on your sig, it goes to truefusion.vze.com instead of truefusion.trap17.com. Got it?

[2]What kind of CSS are you talking about? Firefox is very good at rendering CSS. Are you talking about the amateurish scrollbars? If you are, then it's a pretty lame to restrict access to only one browser because you want everyone to see the scrollbars. How about this? Leave the scrollbar code there, and if one is on Firefox, then they can't see it, and they're missing out.

[3]How about show off the hard work some place else? You could make a flash banner instead. Replace user posted image with a Flash one instead.

[4]And it loaded very fast. Very good.

[5]Er, the buttons "SITE", "MEDIA", "I.ACTIVE", and "WEBBY" do not depress at all when you mouse over them. Mouse over the GET TRAP17 button. See how it moves like that? Now mouse over "SITE" or "MEDIA". You don't get the same effect.

[6]Then change the code. Google gave you a code. You can modify it anyway you want. I modified mine: http://sang.trap17.com/g4m3s/

[7]Okay, then put your name on it if you want to prevent rippers from stealing your layout. Otherwise, leave it the way it is.

[8]4/5

I'm not sure what's up, but after entering the main part of your website, none of your images are visible. They are all broken images instead of what should be there, with the exception of the trap17 button you have on the left. That is the only image I can actually see. I don't know if that's just a problem on my side or if you changed something recently and it messed it up, but I just thought I'd let you know anyhow.

If it's not my side that's at fault, I'll check again later and give you my input on your website, until then I will keep my opinion to myself.

Later,
A

Denying firefox access... one of the most horribly things you could ever do. Second, why design for IE if FF is taking over the market? Third, design for FF and after that you try to apply hacks for IE. Fourth, fix the shoutbox so it doesn't shows the horizontal scrollbars on default. Fifth, who is Owner?. The google ads could be placed in the middle of that sidebar to make it look a little bit more perfect....

Design: 8.5/10
Code: 5/10 - Make it work with FF and I'll give a 9/10
