nice... when i read the title, i was like wow, how stuiped would you be to make a template sideways? it would be so hard to read...

Then i saw and.. its nothing like what i thought

good job.

although a little big...

The sideways design looks good although it is very unusual to view the site sideways. Overall I think it gives your site a unique look.

Good Work!

redz · 10-29-2005, 08:42 AM

pretty unique and i like orange

.

lilgee · 10-29-2005, 08:49 AM

Looks good. Color go good togather. Great job on it.

Steamfrog · 10-29-2005, 04:10 PM

Thank you everyone.

It looks Fresh and good coz it's trying to break the default vertical scroll, but I feel all the links should be present on the 1st half(horizontal) to landing area(anchor) on the other side of horizontal, the whole idea is to avoid scrolling vertically or horizontally.

Thanks
HarRy

That is what i have planned to implement across the site as navigation.

harjitsingh-good idea

shadow_boi · 10-30-2005, 10:46 PM

nice design, unique

At first when I loaded the page I thought that it was just cut off at the side, then I realized you could scroll sideways lol. Maybe you should put an image at the bottom to tell users that they can scroll sideways for more content

I really like the site. Its definately differnet. When i saw the name sideways site i though that i might have to turn my head alot. I didnt realise that it was scrolling sidewards. Its really good. Yeah i agre with the navigation issue aswell.

LeetPCUser · 10-31-2005, 05:14 AM

I def do not like the sideways site thing...

Steamfrog · 10-31-2005, 03:36 PM

Sometimes people don't like new things, but thats ok.

def1 · 10-31-2005, 05:41 PM

hjust so you know 80% of users hate to scroll sideways

SoapTaco · 10-31-2005, 09:38 PM

I want to like it. I think the design is good. I just don't want to scroll sideways. I'm sorry. I have no patience for it.

I would recommend scrapping this idea. Is this supposed to be some new trend?

Steamfrog · 10-31-2005, 09:41 PM

Agree 80% hate sideways when they also have to scroll down, but there is no down option. Down and sideways suck, down by it's self (the norm) is ok and Sideways with no down scoll is also ok, I rekon anyway. And with the kind of tutorials we offer I don't think it will matter to much, the main tutorial screens are presented at 780x550 or somehting standard.

Host47 · 11-02-2005, 04:06 PM
