you know.. it bugs the hell out of me when people dont define the dimensions of their images. it makes the page render very poorly as its downloading.

look at it in 1024x768. its all squished on the left hand side. does not resize well for other resolutions.

i like the artwork (particularly the top image), except for that wierd black border.

i think the red is way too harsh of a color to use as much as you have. a light or ice blue might be a better choice to match with the snow.

Thanks for the comments la'dsasha!
Yeah you're mostly right I'll start working on those...

About the red. These pages are definitely not mented to look like a snowboard pages. I made these for fun and I wanted to put something radical color chooses.

-Time is always against me-

Actually, I really like this set of pages. The launched widnows, well, you know my feelings about *taht*! <g> The red is pretty extreme, but I don't find it tooout of place, what colors are your gear usually? That would be the colors to brand yourself with IMHO. If that was you in the red and white jacket, then we're doing fine. You could probably make that last bit of the interface n the right scale out if you wanted, but that's not critical. Definitely, my favorite version so far.

Your pal, -doc-

Thanks for the kind words Doc! Yeah I'm the guy in everypicture and currently I'm wearing clothes that are black, white and red
Yeah I realized how annoying the popup window was and got a rid of it! That was actually the reason I made new pages.
There's still some little things to do which I'll get later on.

Cheers mates!

I like it. And I like the color choices. They are extreme, but so is the sport. A good choice. I don't need to tell you that it doesn't resize well, because that's been covered. All in all-very clean.

Kind of off topic>I personally see a lot of websites on the web with what I feel are inappropriate color choices. I feel you've captured the mood of the sport with your color choice. If you had a medical website, or something girlie, then light blue would be a good choice (IMO of course).

Loonies love trucks.

Good to hear you like it Jeni!
About the resolution... I'm going to make it a little more narrow because there's not so much text to fill the blank space and that's also the reason I don't want to make it any wider.

Thanks for everybody!!!

You dedicated an entire section of your page to the word "wassup"???

I like it. I'm neutral about the colors. I do like the top image of the page, although it's a *little* bit busy, you may want to simplify it a bit next time, it's just hard to see parts of it because they're too blended in with other parts, and stuff.

I'm glad to see that you didn't worry about fitting your links to the 45 degree lines. That's something that a lot of people take time on, and it just isn't necessary.

I really like this page. The red, black, and white matches what I would expect to see while snowboarding. Lots of contrast against the snow. I like the use of the 45 degree angle buttons and such and on your thumbnails.

I basically like the top image but it seems a bit washed out in places. My eyes are already accustomed to the high contrast and then I get this wierd smudge of inbetween color in the top right portion graphic. I would prefer a higher contrast picture up there. Something that sticks with the red/blk/white theme more.

Overall, I like the layout very much, great job.

Well I liked it... only thing noticeably 'absent' no 'link' to Doc'

Yup! Wassup is just a section which tells something I'm doing at the moment and in the future...
Yeah Slime and Bugimus you guys are right about the top image I prolly made it a little too fast and it's not clear enough. Thanks for the advice!!!
There are no "design" links because these are my snowboarding pages and does not have much to do with my design stuff. I have my portfolio and design pages and there's a link to Ozones!

Thanks for everybody for your absolutely exellent and very helpful comments! I really appreciate these advices!
