Hey, let me know what you all think of this layout I've made for my new site veso. Some things are still needing cleaned up but it's almost done, if people like it, I'll start coding the system and hopefully be open publicly by late summer/autumn..

C&C :]

Cheers, Jamie.

Looks nice, but if it was mine I would:y
Make the Login and Sign up links a bit smaller :)
And make the Sign Up Now! one a image that fits in with the design.

Other than that, tasty :)

I might make them just a little smaller they look silly that big haha. I'm gonna make a sign up button in due course, haven't had any time just now :]

I don't get what you mean? haha. :]

Make it like someone has just stamped on a big "signup" stamp on it

I don't think that would go well with it tbh.
I've just noticed there's a glitch on the nav in IE but it's fine in most other browsers - FF Safari Opera etc.

I love it! However lol:

Make the 'signup now link' a picture instead of text. Also remove the underlines from the links and make them change colour when hovered over instead. I always think underlining is ugly, yeah its my preference but its just input lol.

Make sure there is a picture in the bottom right side to balance the site otherwise it is going to look top heavy design-wise. I really like the login boxes, although i think the div navigations are starting to become overused, they work well with your design!

Good Luck on your site!

*Thumbs up*

THink it's just the tilted rounded rectangle that's the same, other than that it's pretty different haha.

Hey how do you do that thing with the username and password? When you click in, it disappears and when you click out it comes back?

Just an idea, how about using a button for the Sign Up instead of text?

Hmm I don't like the header.
The content bit is okay ;)

Hmm, let me PM you with my thoughts on how you could do the header :)

basic brushes:

Although I'm totaly against brushes, becouse most people exploit it.
They use 2/3 brushes, put some text & say check my design.

I never use any brushes anymore.
I admit when I started designing I was one of those kind of people.
So yeah, don't use brushes :P :P

Javascript


<script type='text/javascript'>
function clearText(findText,text,textID)
{
if(findText == text)
{
document.getElementById(textID).value = '';
}
}

function fillText(textID,text)
{
if(document.getElementById(textID).value == '')
{
document.getElementById(textID).value = text;
}
}
</script>
<input type="text" id="field" value="blah" onFocus="clearText('blah', this.value, this.id);" onBlur="fillText(this.id, 'blah');" />
basically it searches the value of the textfield for the value you've put in the clearText function and clears it if it returns true. the fill text is the opposite it's jsut when the textfield is clicked off it and it's empty it fills the field with the value you've specified in the function.

I haven't used many brushes? only one and it's only because i wanted the sun ray effect.. Brushes are good if they're used properly. If they're thrown together to make something entirely out of brushes then that looks tacky but i've only used one here so i don't see how that's bad?

It's fantastic! I really like it. :)
Thanks very much :]

I wasn't pointing exactly at you.
I was making a general statement that some people just trow some premade brushes together and call it their own design which I hate.

Ofcourse the use of 1 or maybe 2 brushes to get a certain effect is okay ;)
Just saying something entirely made out of brushes, or the key feature are brushes doesn't really make it your own design in that case, get what I mean ?

Anyway, it wasn't directly at you so dont worry ;)
