I am doing some layout for my new site and was wondering if I could get some feed back, I know they do not have a header or the links at the top, and it is really raw, with out any footer as well, and I am trying to keep it simple. But let me know what ya think, I am sure I will have to change allot when my members template is done and all.
Let the nitpicking and bitching commence :angry:
Image Page
Video Selection Page
Video Page
minuets should be minutes
what is with the colon having its own line? least in firefox that is on the image page
Thax man, I will try to find where I even used minuets, on the page. God I hate firefox so much I can not believe that crappy browser is popular at all. It must be really hard to use that, and having to go back and use IE on about 20% of all sites. I really do not see why people even mess with it at all, but thax I will fix it with fuckedfox :)
Personally - until your site is ready to launch - I'd be keeping design elements to yourself. Once you're close to launch, invite a couple friends to go through and check for any link or display problems.

Play Time 24 minuets is directly below the pic./image.
Exactly what makes FireFox such a bad browser?
(Yes, I know ... I am asking for it, but because I am SO bored I decided to occupy some time.)
I did think about that Bec but this stuff is so simple “or to me it is” I have not posed lets say my update page or anything I would think people could or would take or really provided a page with a header or navigation system. If I layout every page and their is a problem with it, its a totally disaster to have to go back and redo all 10,000 of then lets say. :mental:
K thax just woke up I will fix that text, but to tell the truth most of the text is just BS even the Bios questions/statements will totally change just looking at placement and lines of text really.Quote:

Just look at the difference in FF and IE, I will name just one problem with FF cuzz you asked FF has all kinds of problems reading complexes frames. Its really a piss poor browser well that is if you care about looking at sites with out having to use another browser almost daily.
Firefox is a great browser when did you start using it?Quote:

Firefox fucking rocks. Tabbed brosing alone is the biggest time saver. Add to that a very simple tweak to make surfing faster. Then add all the extensions. And then the real kicker - It's sooo much more secure than IE.Quote:

What is the tweak to make surfing faster?
Hey Squirt - although I am somewhat positive you're reply was meant for HIM (Max), but you quoted me, so I wanted to relpy (being polite).Quote:

As far as I am concerned (opinion partly based on the many years of client support that I have provided), the people that tend to have problems are the 'out of the box' users - those that use software immediately after install, without ever modifying the settings (sorry for putting them in to a class).
Firefox has made browsing the net less aggravating!
I see the old debate (FF vs. IE) no different from the many others in life, such as foreign vs. domestic auto; Apple vs. PC; UnixLinux vs. Unix/Linux etc
#1). The extension FasterFox.Quote:

#2). How to speed up FireFox (tested tweak)
1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit enter. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.
2. Alter the entries as follows:
Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.
Set "browser.turbo.enabled" - to "true"
Set "network.dns.disableIPv6 - to "true"
3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.
The questions was directed at you, not Max :thumbsup:Quote:

When did you first start using FF? Do you edit your pages in FF or just surf with it?

I was already SO sick & tired of IE and had gone through many other browsers & MODS (NutScrape, AOL <-- eww, Opera, MYIE etc), and thought, how bad could it really be.
The few problems it had were not enough to turn me way.
Instead, I've been it's bitch ever since!
Regarding work, I still (more like have to) use all current versions of the most popular browsers (for support & testing reasons), but I ONLY browse with FieroFox!
One of the larger PC manufacturers (can't remember who) just struck a deal with them (all new PC will have FF as the default browser) and should be loosening the grip that IE has, more and more (YEE_HAH!).
There are also some settings you can change like max requests per proxy etc.
basiacally you can really put a strain on a server. Hehehehe.
OMG I am sure FF is a bit faster that’s what happens when you do a ½ ass job, I know people say its more secure and it probably is but just because more of this virus stuff ECT is intended for IE, and hell I bet FF probably just miss reads the virus coed and fucks that up too :penny:
OK now to get back on topic, anyone with IE have problems with the color or structure of the pages? I know I will have to spend another 3-8 hours to fix it so the fabulous FF with make if look ok
Once you speed it up, get this baby:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/201/
OR
If You wanna see if your content is on the torrents:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2607/
Sean: while you might hate firefox the fact is that nearly 18% of users avail themselves of this code compliant browser. IE is not 100% code compliant but as it accounts for the majority should be taken into account in design.
Your spelling mistakes are not BS, they will show up in any browser and need to be fixed.
Max should also get this https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1022/Quote:

Dude, to be honest, I sometimes think the text he writes is fill text - Its so hard to understand what he tries to convey.
I am actually working on a new design for SEO purposes and I use maxP's posting as fill text instead of "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam nec lectus a ipsum convallis malesuada" (http://www.lipsum.com) since it has the same "features"

Can I just say that being an avid FF fan (that's Firefox not fist fucking, thank you very much) I've always been upset that it runs heavy graphic sites really slow for me. This will help a lot. Thanks guys.
i check all my pages in ie and ff, in 800x600 and 1024x768.
max, your pages are serviceable if not amazing. they should do fine.
Hi Patti,
for IE there is something calles "Developer Toolbar" - you should check it out if you don't have that yet - it can outline any tag (table, div etc...) and resize your window to set parameters or define your own ones...

I am not trying to blow off the spelling stuff, but you have to understand this is not a real page just a test. Even the models name is not a real name just a long group of letters, to see what it will look like. The minute thing is a problem I will fix it of course, but in a way its really not the point of this, as I am sure Bass understands.Quote:

When tweaking with the speed, I would recommend NOT using an extension. They basically do the same thing as doing by hand, and if you goto a couple places once you tweak it they warn you that you could cause a lot of stress on the server. Hehehehehehehe.

The absolute best way to speed up firefox is via a js profile. Those two links will show you how.
I have done this and tweak it now and then and have even put firefox on my usb keychain. That's how much I love this baby. Just love being able to pop in the mini usb and have my own version of the best damn browser the world has ever seen.
And IE7 still doesnt come close.
I know I am on Max ignore list, but may I suggest increasing 512k to 1024k?Quote:

And as Bec said, show a few people towards launch time. It's really hard to judge pages unless you see the tour, color scheme of the members area, and how it all fits together.
And css is your best friend.
What, you're going to fist fuck from now on? LOL! :)Quote:

Don,

But if u tell me the mouse I may better be able to anser the question on icq...
Mine works fine.
