Just looking for some feedback on my site,

http://www.maximumdirt.com

If you could also comment on the next redesign template I have here,

http://www.maximumdirt.com/2006/index.php

Thanks!

Your yellow background with black text doesn't look so good.
I think the new design looks better.

DirtDemon · 04-27-2005, 07:17 PM

Thanks Digitalman.

Any others with feedback?

bhyraj · 04-28-2005, 12:54 AM

this is best : http://www.maximumdirt.com/2006/index.php

http://www.maximumdirt.com is not looking good. some change need in background colour.

DirtDemon · 04-28-2005, 05:01 AM

bhyraj, are you talking about the yellow background color with the black text on it, or the blue color on the left and right. I assume the yellow like Digitalman said.

Thanks.

Besides color, anything else? Anyone on 56k that can give me their opinion on speed for both the site and the new design?

Yes. here's some words of wisdrom from me : NEVER USE FRAMES. Frames are bad. Frames are evil. Frames = 666 !!!

Cheers

I like http://www.maximumdirt.com/2006/index.php better then the other.. I only see the text "hi" on it which should be a different color (try white

).

DirtDemon · 04-28-2005, 10:08 AM

I am not using frames, that is an I-Frame which is kinda evil also, search engines dont like them as well, but most of my visits come via other links. Although I do not plan on using it in the new design.

I had planned on using white, that "hi" is just in there, I was testing something and left it.

Thanks.

I would still love to hear from anyone on Dialup about the load speeds of both sites, that is probably getting to be my biggest concern. I think the new design is around 107K in size without content as it sits right now.

Instead of using an I-Frame, have you tried

Code:

<?php include("page.html"); ?>

I like both designs, the new one though i do like much better, looks much cleaner I think.

danstevenson · 04-28-2005, 02:08 PM

hahah oh well looks ok

benc811 · 04-28-2005, 02:13 PM

SB_GEMINI · 04-29-2005, 01:38 AM
