Site layout. Help me improve.

[Young-FM]

Yeah, this is the picture..

I created the thing myself with help from my dad. Just wandering how I could improve it. I just wrote that "Don't Copy" thing on paint 'cos I didn't know how else to do it xD

Please give feedback. The DJ and the bit saying "NEEDED" on the side, scrolls, so it is suppose to look like that xD

Thanks, :)

another content box or so on the right with dj says or something and maybe a marquee box smeweh.

Its quite nice and simple. Good try

[Finkelstien]

Looks pritty awesome hey I agree with Sunny there that would be hot.

[Young-FM]

Thanks, :) Will update now and try to post up.

I might change it to be using layers because my Dad codes it and he's out 'til late.

[Drompo]

Very Nice.
Keep that and yes, you can have the use of my domain.

I may be able to offer you hosting too.

[Young-FM]

UPDATE: After taking in what everyone had posted, this is what i've updated it to. Keep the comments coming! And big thanks to Sunny and Ash for what they've both posted.

Delete it off your harddrive immediatly. It's terrible. Copy and paste, then adding a 1px border around the blue bar? What the hell?

[Young-FM]

I didn't copy and paste anything.. I made that thank you very much... :l

[Johno]

I thought the website wasnt in any way related to Habbo but I see images etc that are Habbo Images (Some text and the basic style of the layout is such of a Habbo Fansite)

I know it's nothing t odo with Habbo. I mean that in the taste that it isn't a radio fansite. I used Habbo texts and backgrounds etc. because they work well with the style I think.. (Good of you to notice that I used them though).

The way I sa it's nothing to do with Habbo means, i won't have DJs nagging you to flood your console and get down to Hallway 1 etc. But I don't see any problems with using Habbo texts and backgrounds?

One bad comment and the rest follow ^^

Yes you did.

[Young-FM]

Er.. I think i'd know if I copied and pasted things on my own template.

Here it stands, I COPIED AND PASTED NOTHING as that is just ripping. I used inspiration from other sites to create my own, but made sure nothing was the same if you get my point.

Nothing was copied and pasted. And that is that, it's my template, I should know :l

[Mentor]

Hmm, well if your after feedback:

First off id try and make the banner section equal the width of the content arias within the layout, haveing it smaller just makes it look a bit wrong. id also rethink the inner border on it as it comes off quite tacky.

The pixel style appears to work quite well with the imagry but the habbo text destroys that and just makes it look like another habbo layout, get rid of that and useing a differnt font for the banner would be an improvment in my opinion.

The advert bit also appears not to fit right.

In addition, within the main content aria id probably expand the heading sections so there is less of a margin between them and the actual content box's sides. Other than that, looks good :)

[Young-FM]

Thanks for the feedback, would rep you if I had rep power.

Will work on that now.

[Young-FM]

UPDATE: After all the comments and suggestions that were made about the layout I have which was not made by copy-and-paste, this is what it now stands at...

http://i19.tinypic.com/5x4ptgz.png

Notice that I got a new logo with no Habbo text.
I also moved the bubbles closer together.
I also added a copyright
And I added a Site Announcements, as I don't see a need for a DJ Says on a non-Habbo radio site at the minute (but we'll see)

EDIT: I just realised I made the logo "YOUTH FM" not "YOUNG FM"

Need to go change it :S

[Invent]

Announcements looks wrong.

Boxes need moved in 1px. Also, the right hand side has a lot more 'white space' than the left.

[ScottDiamond.]

Er.. I think i'd know if I copied and pasted things on my own template.

Here it stands, I COPIED AND PASTED NOTHING as that is just ripping. I used inspiration from other sites to create my own, but made sure nothing was the same if you get my point.

Nothing was copied and pasted. And that is that, it's my template, I should know :l

I know for a fact that you have copied and pasted at least the main container and the boxes.

[Young-FM]

Look, I bloomin' haven't now stop claiming I have.
__________________________________________

Invent, how does the Announcements look wrong?

Also, there's an update (again):

http://i10.tinypic.com/53gf90x.png

[Invent]

That layout is ******* BRILLIANT!

[Young-FM]

Thank you. I made it the other day with my Dad =] I made it simple to adjust too, so if someone ripped my site, when I found out I can make it slightly different. Also helps when you do versions of your site.

Still need someone to help me make Stats and Request Line, as those on there are fake examples placed in to give people a rough idea of the template =]

Just noticed some errors since last update. Will fix them now :)

[Eccentric]

in my opinion i think maybe there needs to be space between side boxes and the content box :S banner and announcement boxes need to be smaller so they fit in the container

[Young-FM]

This is the update

http://i19.tinypic.com/538fnnk.png

And originally there was spaces between the bubbles/boxes. And the banner and marquee do fit (now).

It was posted that it would look better with no / little gap.

TAKE A VOTE: SPACE BETWEEN CONTENT AND SIDE BOXES OR NO SPACE?

Post below, most popular choice will be used.. thanks :)

[Eccentric]

still make banner and announcements smaller.... by about 10px or 20px :S

[Young-FM]

Hmm.. i'll try.

This is the best I can get it..

http://i11.tinypic.com/4r0j79j.png

[Eccentric]

i still think it needs sorting more :S:P

[Young-FM]

Hmm.. can you plese take the banner and edit it to how you think it'll suit?

If yes, I'll post it :)

God what a rule. "/

What has got into you?

Brilliant layout for a Non-Habbo Radio Website. :rolleyes:

[Young-FM]

Lawls.

It is a non-Habbo website...

Umm, you said it was?

Also, reporting my posts is another sign that just gives away how wrong you are. You can give up now.

[Young-FM]

No. Reporting your posts points out that people are getting offended by you claiming that they are thick by not knowing that actually something they are highly aware that they made is apparently something that is ripped. And that some people won't give in to the fact that some people may just be better than them.

Please do not try to act smart again, you completly failed at it. I'm not bothering to read that as you type like a moron, and I cannot understand what crap you are trying to say. Though, I did laugh at the only part I read that was 'getting offended by you claiming that they are thick', that made me laugh.

[Lilian]

That exact layout was SparkHabbo.com's old one :S

Shame to SparkHabbo too.



Lmao, you can't even give me negative rep without screwing up Young-FM.

It's true though, lol.

[Young-FM]

I didn't rep you? I only had rep power since Sunny repped me... and that was at 01.58 [on other thread your moaning about]

Also, who are spark habbo?

EDIT: The sparkhabbo site is a adaptation of Clubhabbo's. Notice the white border, banner, content is a piece of paper, navigation buttons, and the bar under the banner. NOTHING like my template. It's about 95% identical to Clubhabbo's old design.
