Hi,

Any thoughts on my rather sprawling personal web site Oolong.co.uk? Does the front page design work for you? Do bits of it look embarrassingly dated? Is it easy enough to navigate? Am I doing anything really stupid?

Any and all feedback appreciated...

Cheers!

- Oo.

i saw ur site, u seem to more of an artistic person.

da background and pics outta dere really speak volumes of artisitic stuff, but plzz do think about usin sum light colours.
otherwise, its quite gud.

BUT,
i saw ur guestbook,
i didnt like da interface at all, m srry to say, dat i found it really embarrassing.
Please change it.
or if u wish , i can give u my own guestbook, written n coded by me, in ASP nd using SQL/Access, if ur seerver supports ASP. I just it wrote it. nd trust me, m not gonna chanrge nething for it. Its my way of returning to the internet which has given me so much.
Regards
Vivald

Cheers, Vivald...

Yeah, the guestbook is not exactly a masterpiece of design. It's what my ISP provides for free; it does the job. Please feel free to provide a link to your own, better guestbook - I'm not sure that my server does support outside scripts though - hence using the ISP's own one. Before that I was using one which came for free but which was actually uglier and also had adverts. Maybe I should just shoehorn a corner of my forum into acting as a guestbook, instead...

I've just completely re-done my page of Fimo & Sculpey creatures, with an eye to hopefully selling some of them some time - I'd very much welcome any feedback on the design and general approach.

I'd also still really like any feedback on the rest of my site - see my notes at the start of this thread.

Thanks!

Wow, very nice site! The only thing I found that I didn't like is some of the background are too busy. Which kinda of clashes with the content of the pages. Otherwise it looks great.

I give it 9/10

Hi Oolong,

I have to say, the animation on the homepage is phenomenal. I can't believe it was made using freeware and it's only 96k. Very good!

Hi, and thanks a lot, both of you. Which backgrounds did you think were too busy, TF? I'm guessing Pictures and Me - anything else? (any dissent/agreement from anyone else on this one?)

Gringo - cheers; it's amazing what Pov-Ray can do. That's actually a relatively simple one - I've been playing around with more sophisticated variants on that theme (making the spaceships reflective, for a start) but haven't really got any of the results online yet. I should do that...
