Early screenshots removed...See the website's Games section to see some of them.

I finally got the behind the scenes red tape out of the way and my site is now officially at www.orangebrat.com

If anyone has any suggestions or comments, post away.

Some routine updates on the game site, minor ones on the Brat one. They were made a while ago, but I forgot to add yet another Orange Brat post to this thread full of my avatar

I would appreciate just a little feedback from someone, anyone.....Just keep in mind, it's early and rough(the game shots I mean, and top 3 are current, the bottom 6 will change).

Oh, and if you are using Opera, good luck you'll certainly need it.

Hi ya Orange Brat, cool design but there are some issues with the links I think eg, Games goes nowhere yet and I couldnt locate screenies if you have them BUT I loved hunting out the CAT.
Most people hate looking for links and wouldnt be bothered replying if they left the site in a huff.
Otherwise its really cool and could do with more work.
Cheers.

Thanks for replying, you're the first in 6-7 months.

That's what constructive feedback is all about. With that said, I don't think a person is really hunting for anything(I'm referring to the cat site). It's really no different than your everyday at the top of the site Nav bar(I use one of those on the game site), and I think it's pretty self explanatory, but maybe I'm too close to it.

Actually, it does, but for one reason or another some browsers give people a page not found error. If you're not getting this error, what are you getting? When you click on the Games cat, the word "thedisenfranchised" pops up on the right hand side. I know of at least one person that completely missed that, but she's not too bright, so I'm not sure if missing it is common or if I simply need to alter that part.

I certainly do know how to help . A couple of ideas, to save you the trouble (well, you already have, but hey).

Firstly - try using a table with 100% width and height, so it will adjust for each res. Make the cells with nav/the picture a set size, and leave the one with content blank. This means the browser will adjust the cell to fit the page height (works well ). Then instead of using the floating info, make it an iframe instead - Can be positioned anywhere in CSS. The iframe will have the same effect, but it will stop you and the user from creating/loading each navigation section (although it's a good minimalistic approach to a website that you have).

Hope that helps!

[Edit] - It works perfectly in Mozilla Firebird for me... [Edit]

I had planned on converting everything to tables, as you mentioned. Right now, I make heavy use of layers(div) and that approach may not be the best in terms of getting closer to achieving a site that works within the most browsers.

Thanks for the tip(s) and glad the site works for you as is. Minimalism is what I was going for and it has become my style for whatever reason. I like my white space.

You mustn't have looked at the Brat sight(click first signature link--this is the one Nemisis had problems with), but I suppose the game one is a little black isn't it? The game is in black and white(when final textures are in place) so maybe that has something to do with it...I don't know maybe it does maybe it doesn't.

It's cool, I was just having a bit of a laugh :-).

Nevertheless, you are right - It adds contrast, it looks like a dark game, with some humorous additions enveloped within. I have to say it's prgressing very nicely, but GET RID OF THE KNIGHT!!! :-)

Have a nice day.
