Dude change the color of your text, can't see it on my screen. Also I don't get the design at all.
- the empty thumbnails will be filled with my work tomorrow when i'm not tired, and open via thickboxsquidy
- changing the text color now :)
squidy - Better :) I would make it a bit darker but that's just me. Are you going to add something to the header?OhYeah
- i'd thought of doing some whispy illustration up there but like i said, getting really tired so it may have to wait till tomorrowsquidy

darker text :)

Increase the darkness of the background stuff.
The lines, the 5 degree angled lines, the dividers, etc...it's barely visible on my macbook, and in windows low opacities that range from 0-12 percent tend to get lost.
Apple deals better with low contrast.and yep. darker text.
and how about a footer or something? at least add more space at the bottom since the last line of text is touching the edge of the browser window
- thanks, good to know on all those points. the footer is in progress ;)squidy

A new look for tonight. I think an improvement from last nights design for those who saw it. Remeber it is just a placeholder site while I finish my flash site over the holidays :)

I would change that bit.Is the robot squid your logo?
You have a scroll bar at the bottom of the browser on any res smaller than 1280px wide and the content would fit a 800 x 600 res screen?
The header elements look a bit random.
The blue and pink candy stripes are all different sizes. The light header and dark body background look strange.
- spuid is my logo, personal meaning
fixing the scrolling bars issue, thx :)squidy

Better than before.
Still too light in my opinion.
it's def hard to read and makes me get closer to the screen just to appreciate the details or read the text without making so much effort to read it.How about geting rid of Newstoday? NT is long gone. It's QBN now... besides it's the only link with a dash.
If you decide to keep Newstoday, remember that it's one word. Not News + today.- damn, it looks perfect on my lappy. You have trouble seeing the "about me" body copy?squidy
