Need your opinion on website - Page 2

No Twifkak, that was "P.D.", a small testing adventure of some sorts (Igor will be able to tell a lot more about it I'm sure ^_~). Ignac 1 plays in the bedroom and upper level of a suburbian house.

Kolzig · 11-17-2003, 06:22 AM

Ok, I had to do a little research before I found it...

I'm downloading Ignac right now.

http://www.geocities.com/gosfishgames6/ignac.html

That's where I finally found the game.

twifkak · 11-17-2003, 06:31 AM

Whee!

Thanks for the info.
Is that hosted any place that's not geocities? I'm getting a big fat

ok, I'll make sure I refer to you correctly in future, twifkak...

igor, the only nit I can pick that hasn't been picked (hee) is that I can see the vertical borders around the labels in a faintish yellowy-brown, but no horizontal ones .. in any case, I think any borders at all are a bit distracting and unnecessary (I have a feeling this wasn't meant to be there and doesnt show up on all monitors ... ?)

Igor · 11-18-2003, 01:31 AM

Ignac... that's so last Tuesday

Thanks Tamara! I'm puzzled about vertical borders... if it's not too much work for you, can you post a screenshot of this, as i can't really see it?

I made a wee bit smaller frames around links.

Oh btw, in case you missed- Sketchbook page is now working (but thumbnails are still dead).

Tamara · 11-18-2003, 01:52 AM

I took a screenshot and replaced the faint lines with black so you can see them. The original colour was R 247, G 239, B 226. A *very* faint colour, but visible on my screen at least and a little annoying .. it's also surrounded with an even fainter blur, cos it was saved as jpg .. I'm guessing you have the original file so don't have to worry about that.

Igor · 11-18-2003, 04:00 AM

Ah, great- i fixed it now. Thanks!

AGA · 11-18-2003, 04:43 AM

Uh... Eh... Sorry, what was that? I didn't clean my ears today... i only catched "you rule" part

Seriously, thank you all for great help and comments (now i only need to finish that damn site

).

Bard09 · 11-26-2003, 02:00 AM

Just jumped in.

I love the website. Unlike me, you can actually draw! Is it computer generated (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc), scanned in, or both? Nonetheless, your visual style is great.

...but you probably want to put links to each of the site categories on each page. So from the Sketchbook page you could jump to the Animation page or the Dustbin page. With your layout, the area called "Old Stuff" on the Sketchbook page would be a good place to have icons that linked to those other pages.

It's not a hard and fast rule in web publishing, but you generally want to reduce the amount of times the user has to click "Back" on their browser.

Also... though I doubt someone who has disabled images would want to view your site, it is usually good practice to fill out the ALT tags for your images. You never know

Hope this helps!

Igor · 11-26-2003, 07:16 AM

Web site will be now found here: http://maniac.adventuredevelopers.com/igor/index.htm (blast that previous web space account! I wasn't able to upload some images at all... and they weren't even pr0n :eek: )!

Bard09- thanks for comments!
Yeah, agree with you on links- as you can see i added them. Also, cool suggestion about ALT tags

Ah, about drawings- yeah they are all hand drawn, but colored on computer (or, in some cases, a mix of watercolors and computer coloring (that last children illustration for example).
