your http://sitesmakers.com does not render properly in Firefox.

**davemies** · 12-14-2007, 11:22 AM

you also have coding errors when checked in the w3c validator

Your spelling and punctuation are terrible!

logo doesn't fit in well with the site

the site looks ok if a little poorly laid out, but it certainly doesn't look like you are graphic design experts

When building a Site you need to check it in Both Explorer and Firefox. I am surprised at time how differently Site look in Firefox verses Explorer. Just a Hint!

The main site is loading horribly in Firefox 2.0 AND IE7 for me.

It looks like it has a lot of potential but it's hard to judge when everything's loading on top of everything else.

What I can see of the actual graphics looks quite good though. Just get the HTML/CSS sorted and you'll be rolling. Can't really give you much more info until that's done.

Good luck. Hopefully see you when you've fixed the browsers issue.

hi,
here are a few suggestions:
1.try using different background colors for the main content area, side links.
2.change the color of the links in the sidebar. or atleast change the color of the text on mouseover. or people will think that they are just text. i actually checked to see if they were links or just plain text.
3.get rid of the empty space at the bottom of the page.

http://sitesmakers.com looks good and it is professional work

**starlord** · 12-18-2007, 06:58 AM

you need to either make the sponser link box smaller or get some names in there mate, seeing so many "blank" ones makes people believe that the sites not getting the traffic they want to see so they won't sponser a link ... a sort of catch 22 ... I would suggest you try and find something / someone to help fill them spaces ...

PS .. site itself looks good

Hi again,

Much better! Looking really nice. Transparency and backgrounds are very good.

A couple of small points I noticed. Just things I might have preferred while I was viewing your site:

Width: slightly too wide for a 1024 res screen. This is still a very common resolution and would look better to more people if it could accomodate a thinner screen.
Where it says "sitemakers.com" as the title... could this be a link to the homepage? Some people (fools like me ) have got it into their heads that clicking the title takes them to the homepage. Not a problem by any means but would be handy to a few select people.
In the newsflash, the image doesn't quite fit. Firstly the background is not quite the same colour as the page. Secondly it doesn't quite fit in it's container (overlapping the right hand border). (This may be because I'm using a 1024 res though)
There are some teeny-weeny grammer mistakes in the intro that can often take the edge off your professional feel. For example, "as a freelance website designers we" shouldn't include the "a". A small point again.

Other than that the site's design is great. Honastly, love the text size changer especially.

Good luck with the business.

Very nice layout! I see that you made it in Joomla. Top-notch work for a Joomla template. Keep it up!

**zeruel** · 12-19-2007, 01:57 AM

Whoah! Very nice layout! I like the random picture on the left side...

Great work man!

**coolslko** · 12-19-2007, 07:05 AM

Site looks good.....specially layout but one thing you should add your main keyword in strting of the page title in palce of site name. and site is ok with mozilla but shows some overlapping while opening in IE at right side.

Hi there,

I dont know about others but I quite liked your idea and it sounds great to me.

I also liked your submission method as it is quite simple and straight forward as compared to others that i have been putting up with over the last few days.

Great site !! Well Done !! I believe you have already taken care of the feedback provided above me so, will not repeat any of it.

I liked your directory and have submitted my site to it and have given you reciprocal links for all of them.

Thanks,

< link drops removed >
