Topic: [SOLVED] fire away

run the google search page in the w3validator and see how much i should care what the validator says. if they are going to set the standard they need to keep up.

google sets the standard for valid markup?

What about the major issue of scaling? the mark-up is poor.

... i dont use br to push anything on my site i use a css layout thats why i block certain browsers....

The following is taken from your homepage...

Code: [Select]

<div id="loading" class="loading-invisible">
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>Loading   <img src='http://studio378d.com/load.gif' /></h2>
</div>


[Dorky]

well i have to admit i dont account for half blind. that font is really really big. and the br you posted is to push down the word "Loading" and the loading gif on the loading cover page. i feel you are looking for problem and really reach. the font is just....whatever lol. and yes. industry leaders set the standards. always have and always will. that why apple is leading the push to css3. let me blow up the font on your sites and we shall see how you handled it. maybe ill learn something since you offer no suggestions to fix the "problems"

see, i can make a site look retarded too. i guess that makes them not to your standards as well lmfao. whatever dude.

Notice how the site you made "retarded" actually scaled to fit the content (with the exception of the header) and you can actually read all the content on the page still.

The main issue with your site is the fixed height, why not let the content of #box determine its parents height.

no it didnt. the forms are to big and so is the content at the bottom of the page. a good example of you observation skills though to make a call about something you cant even see. enough of your blather.

Ok, if you don't want to take any advice I won't waste my time.

Here's me thinking you posted a link to your site so people could tell you what's good and what's bad about your site.

no you are bored and trying to stir an argument and i have no reason to listen to you. if you actually have some helpful suggestions i will be all ears.

your definition of "helpful suggestion" differs greatly from the generally accepted one. you define "helpful suggestion" as anything you will agree with. isedeasy had nothing but helpful intentions regarding your scaling issue. there's no need to be outright dismissive or contentious.

what a mess of a thread. Dorky, sorry to break it to you, but criticism is supposed to sting. Saying 'whatever' to a clear flaw in your code proves that you don't care for criticism of any kind. To each his own. I would suggest not asking people to "fire away" and then complain about it when they do.

well im sorry you feel that way. i blew up google and many other sites, just to compare. none of them passed your scaling test. also if a person states they are not interested in changing a particular part of the site and you continue to push the issue rather then moving on, it has gone from helpful to pushy and/or argumentative.

[Dorky]

i did take into consideration the suggestions i felt valid and revampd the entire site, including adding the form. still working on it but i feel it accounts for all of the good suggestions i got. thanks much.

It looks pretty unappealing. The loading screen that comes up all the time seems rather pointless, and the green color doesn't fit the white background. The lack of distinction between regular text and links is problematic, and the general lack of color makes it dull and boring. Also, why did you use textareas for fields on the contact form? Overall it looks pretty unappealing and unprofessional. I would never buy web design services from a website like that.

The thing about statistics also sounds lame. If statistics demand you have 15 seconds to catch my attention, then why are you wasting my time with information that is not relevant to what I'm looking for?
