My First Gallery

[fbrtopic]

So I FINALLY took the time to code out my own gallery. So here it is. Let me know how you guys like it. It's four short video clips.

Over 30 people and no opinions yet?

Graphics are way too big (300+ kb). Reduce them. Same counts for the thumbnails.

Also don't use only banners but text or both together. Right now there is no reason for a surfer to clickthrough to your sponsor

[TOURKNOOK]

your banners are to big but the color combination are great

[ZEK]

thumbnails took a very long time to load

[fbrtopic]

Now that's what I'm talking about ;)

Thanks for the help. I'll change it up a bit and post a modded version a bit later.

[Spunky]

Not bad at all..I'd list it

[fbrtopic]

Ok, I changed a bit and made the thumbs and banner a LOT smaller. I've got a pretty fast connection so I didn't even consider size much of an issue.

I also changed the banners a bit and added some text. How about now?

header and thumbnails are ok now (although the size of the thumbnails could be even smaller without quality loss).

nice , i liked the logo

[fbrtopic]

Right, the size could be smaller without much loss, I'll play around with it and see what kind of results I get.

nice dudes... bump

I agree the header is way to big.

[Freeze-Be]

Someone with a low screen resolution will need to scroll to much.

Bottom line I like it.

[fbrtopic]

Allright, I'll be taking the tips into consideration. I do think I need to shrink the header a bit too. It's definately a work in progress.

Hi -

I'm sure you've had many compliments already - but I like your site, thepinkpages.org. Very well laid out.

Did you do it yourself, or are you using some CMS system?

Thanks!

Thanks. I'm using wordpress for the backend, and a theme I found online for the way it looks, but I heavily edited the CSS and html to make it look like it does. About the only remnants of the original theme are a couple of fonts and the sizes of some stuff.

Use more text, talk to the surfer, tell him why the site you're promoting is worth his money, and why you'd join it.

If you don't know what to write, go and look for another sponsor

Take a look at this tutorial I've written recently, should give you a few new ideas http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=573984.

the color combination from the header is to intensive..... my eyes are starting to hurt

[melvin-ddfprod]

[fbrtopic]

Yeah, I updated it all, totally different header, much much smaller.
