i need your help on whether to roll out my new design across the whole of my site, If you think that the new design is an improvement can you please let me know so that I can decide!

==========
NEW DESIGN

Please can you tell me which you think is better and maybe why if you have time!
Thank you all so much,
Craig

it's the same design, just a realiment of things basically

SeanPreston · 11-21-2005, 10:46 AM

I think the old is the best.

tony84 · 11-21-2005, 10:49 AM

to be honest i think they could both do with a little tidying up before you use any of them but if i had to choose id go for the old 1

Host47 · 11-21-2005, 11:09 AM

yeh look pretty much the same tbh, just moved things around..like old 1 better...

-MGS- · 11-21-2005, 11:32 AM

I did not see much from each of them, they seem the same to me? it must be my eyes going?

Tippy · 11-21-2005, 11:54 AM

I prefer the new, dont like those blank empty hover over boxes on the old...

eli03 · 11-21-2005, 12:34 PM

still the same, the old one is better, but try to add more content to your site. I like the latest campsites, but you should have a little description for each link.

**NPQueen** · 11-21-2005, 12:41 PM

You sure are working hard on this site. I prefer the look of the new... it just seemed to flow better to me. Best of luck!

domainprince · 11-22-2005, 12:21 AM

IMO the old design is better.

dongan · 11-22-2005, 01:05 AM

IMO, the new one looks good.

ecampsite.co.uk · 11-22-2005, 05:19 AM

Hi again,

I've just added a background to the middle, modified the left column so that the nav doesnt go across 2 lines, and put an image next to the navigation to draw the visitors eye towards that. Do these make it look any better???

Cheers

Craig

peter phillips · 11-22-2005, 05:41 AM

I think the new one is looking better since you have added a background to the middle and the navigation links are looking good too. The older page looks a bit empty while the new one is well spread out.

LeetPCUser · 11-22-2005, 08:12 AM

I do think the second one is better. I still do not entirely like the design, but it is a step up from the previous design.

-MGS- · 11-22-2005, 08:29 AM

Could someone point out to me what he changed

LeetPCUser · 11-22-2005, 08:30 AM

In the middle it is blue now. That is the only difference I really saw besides the navbar moving.

ecampsite.co.uk · 11-22-2005, 02:41 PM

hey guys,
i think i have come up with a solution to the stetched feel that my site had previously in higher resolutions. It now calls a javascript to determine the resolution and depending on that, loads a different style sheet. The different style sheets have been made to fit the content well in the resolution that you are in. If you change your resolution when your on,

www.ecampsite.co.uk/index2.html

you will see that it is displayed a bit weird, but if you then refresh the page, a new style sheet will kick in, try it and tell me what you think!!!
Cheers
Craig

Oblivion. · 11-22-2005, 02:58 PM

I prefer the new one, although I don't really think much of either.

infinitomagazine · 11-22-2005, 03:26 PM

i like new design and load faster than old one

LeetPCUser · 11-22-2005, 04:32 PM

The new design is better, but still it isn't what it should be

**NPQueen** · 11-22-2005, 04:53 PM

I really like the changes that you have made. The site is simple and easy to find what you are looking for. Looks good!

Keep up the good work!

ecampsite.co.uk · 11-24-2005, 11:01 AM

Thank you guys!

Do you think the new tent pegs look better in the corner of the main section at

www.ecampsite.co.uk/index2.html

I changed the screw things!

Cheers

Craig
