Humor site

Trojanfan · 11-06-2005, 03:17 PM

Hey guys. I have finally brought back MadBum.com, my humor site. It was down for a long time but I brought it back and improved on it. I tried to match the design with the content in being unique and humorous. What do you guys think?

It looks good, but when I do a search in the right column and it sends me to the search page, the right column ends up outside the design, to the far left. I am using firefox.

http://madbum.com/index.php?s=dog - That page, the search results page.

Ah, yes, I see that. Guess I'll have to have a coder look at it. If anyone knows let me know, otherwise I'll go check somewhere else about that. Thank you.

Looks good, dark but it suits the genre. I cannot see that error in FF myself.
I like the logog and the header, you have done well.

Trojanfan · 11-07-2005, 06:21 AM

Thank you. Yes, I found and fixed the error for FF

Looks good and as you mentioned the site being humorous the design and the use of dark colors is justified. I particularly like the header its looks really funny. Overall I think the key to your site is the content which is humorous.

Thanks peter. Yes, that's the key to the site, is the offbeat nature and humor of the content. Most of it is obviously not meant to be taken seriously in any way which is one thing that turns some people off when they do (wrong sort of visitors for the site anyway then

).

Looks great!
I am not often a fan of sites with a dark look to them.
However, you've managed to create a dark template that looks great!

I'm not sure there's anything bad I can say about it, but I think that the bar at the top that lets people navigate through your network, the "GamingStart" should be coloured in red rather than blue, because it's the only blue on the page, it sort of looks out of place.

Good luck with the site!

I like the design a lot but I don't know about the content...I don't see anything humerous.

Trojanfan · 11-08-2005, 09:28 PM

Yeah, can't appeal to everyone's sense of humor computergeek. Appeals to a certain crowd.

Trojanfan · 11-11-2005, 02:26 PM

any more opinions?

Alright, last bump if no more.
