Topic: RE:axis

Hey guys, can you take a look at my new website? I'm still working on some things such as the splash screen, so this site check is mainly about layout and functionality.

Thanks in advance,

Well, first things first--get rid of the splash page!

So far I like it... it's a bit small at 1024x768, but not too small. I wouldn't want to try to look at it at a higher resolution, though.

I had a lot of fun just looking through your sketches. You have some neat stuff in there. (The last two, the java applets, didn't load for me, though...)

One thing I would like to mention is the pop-ups. I have a pop-up blocker installed, so sites with a lot of pop-ups can be annoying. You might want to just mention that things (esp. the main site) are going to open in new windows, just to give people like me advance warning (so we can turn off the pop-up blocker temporarily).

Overall, though, it's pretty good. You have an interesting terminal style going there, and I think it works.

Thanks for your review. I know about the splash and the pop-up, and the splash screen will improve for sure. It's gonna have site requirements and also, like you said, warnings for the pop-ups.

P.S. Get the latest version of Java here

Your metal leads a little more. It seems really flat, it could use some detail work to give it that extra push.

WarMage: I'm not really good at graphic design and metal doesnt seem to be the easiest thing to do... Have you got an idea about how to do it?
