| | Ok, my website was online for not quite a while now, but I haven't showed you my site yet!
Ok, my site is www.obelisk.co.nr
or if you want to it is also http://obelisk.trap17.com/
It is XHTML 1.0 Strict so people who criticize people because their website cannot validated (like me) my site does VALIDATE! although I don't think CSS will validate...
Anyhoo... my forums are at http://forum.obelisk.trap17.com/ so it would be great if you could join or something.
So any suggestions? Queries? etc? |

Ads placement tip: You should personalize your adsense ad template so it matches your site's design. (get rid of the borders at least) Also include the banners in a nice location inside or near the content so you'll get some clicks. If you're beginning a site make sure to skip the ads part and keep the site ads-free for a while... attracts people  Cheers^^

ok, i'll try those suggestions. The advertisements aren't that obtrusive in my opinion, none of that 'you are the 999,999th visitor' crap. ButI really don't want to go ads free... Because after a while, when I do get ads then everybody will complain and stuff... I'm not only a C&C fan you know, I also like Warhammer 40k Dawn of war (and board game) and supreme commander. anyway, my forums is dead, it would be great if someone could revive it again...

I must admit, the advertisements doesn't really look that bad, and they really blend quite nicely. I like the theme and the template, though I must say, I'd really like to see a nice logo up there in the blue, rather than just text. It's difficult to see exactly what the site is about at first glance. That's my suggestion.

Nice site, add more content to get the traffic follwing in. When I tried to view the forum, all I saw was a set of errors, the theme you've use looks pretty. Fix the errors as soon as possible.

Oh, I just fixed those errors. I made a mistake when I was trying to add a 'global announcement' mod for the forum thing. It is fixed now... Yes... I really need to orient the site to one thing rather than a set of things. But anyhoo... back to the coding board on dreamweaver...

First off, let me just say that I myself am also a huge fan of C&C (NOD) and 40K. Now, back on topic. The layout is incredibly smooth and flows very nicely. As SkyStormKuja said, the advertisements do blend in very well. In fact, I didn't even notice there were advertisements present until I started looking for them. The one thing I have to complain about is that I found it difficult for my eyes to transition between the shade of blue on your site (which I love) and the darker blue shade(s) you have on your forums. At first it gave my eyes a shock, but (even though I got used to the look of the forum after a while) I couldn't help but think that if your forum could use the same blue your website header uses, that it would look MUCH better.

Well, I like GDI and Daemonhunters (Ordo Malleus) Anyhoo... Thanks, I'm not really a 'layout' person. My previous website attempts never flowed... One page would be white, another red, and the forums orange or something like that... But I now really like ambient themes, which is why I made the front page like that. But to be honest I am not good at making images (i never get them like I want them to be) I might just make the frontpage a bit darker (dodge tool most likely will do the trick)...

Good job bro. I've been scrolling through some of these web designs here. You actually got my attention. Good design. I have a couple complaints however. Lol, sorry... don't use "Papyrus" typeface please. Way overused and doesn't fit your website. Top left corner "Obelisk". Take the time out of the title. I have my own watch. Take off the date. Other than that, I dig it.

Easy to read, good layout and most of all SIMPLE DESIGN, what i cannot stand in a website is an over complicated design where you have to hunt for 2 or 3 minutes to find the link to the contact section or forum (if they have one). Well done and I'm sure you will find somewhere to improve or just keep building to it! And you're about page and links page are under construction? Or is the link dodged up...Just thought I'd let you know anyway!

QUOTE(Cerebral Stasis @ Apr 22 2008, 07:15 AM)  Personally, I don't see much of a correlation between the design (with is fine, albeit a little empty) and Command and Conquer 3. I would more readily imagine a green layout, rather than blue (as it seems to be a recurring color in the game). Additionally, your "about" and "links" hyperlinks don't function properly, though I like your Deus Ex reference in the site's file structure (that is, putting everything in a folder called "daedalus"). The forums look fine, although I have some difficulty reading the title text, since it kind of blends with the background. Not bad, but not eye-grabbing, I'm afraid. Of course, that is just my personal opinion. I'm just making another website, didn't have anytime to make a "temporary replacement" so I just found a random template and used that... But in few more days the "real" site should be up... The new one is build especially for Firefox and even though it will be tested on IE, it might not display as good... The new one will have auto-switching backgrounds, auto-switching header images and even a Warhammer 40,000 quote of the moment! "Daedalus" ain't based on Deux Ex, just that I don't like generic (images/bg/{filename}.{extension} etc) and I just finished watching Stargate Atlantis episode "Be All my sins Remember'd" and was thinking of the BC-302 Daedalus and just thought to use that as name, also check the .js files there's oddysey and something else, all Stargate references... QUOTE(fffanatics) Site looks good but here are a few suggestions. First of all, i like the header but the name of your site is very small and thus hard to see / remember. I would incorporate it into the header design a bit more so that it stands out. Next, i would put the links on the left instead of the right since its a more common placement and those who are computer illiterate will be able to use your site better. Yeah, the sidebar will be easily moved to the left (either change the content to float:right; or sidebar to float:left;) The header text if any larger for some reason ruins the design of the page (everything goes out of order and stuff)
