I'm making a site at the moment for a 'clan' that Jon - The Super Moderator is in.

go here: http://www.entertainmentforums.net/renegade/

That is what is so far online I can't attach the current version because it is 100kb+
I wanna know if everything looks alright on cross platforms.

And no people I'm not friggin advertising! - I'm 13 why would I start up a business thingamagigy.

I have attached a picture of what the current version looks like and hopefully while I am on holiday tomorrow and 9 days after that Jon will have uploaded the updated version I had sent him.

He's just gotta do alot of work on the forums!

BTW: IT IS VERY MUCH WORK IN PROGRESS!
 
If you are going to check here fast. I didn't get the file or the buttons in the email.
 
Flash, I knew it....but I like it, and I'm not into that FPS stuff.

One tiny fault: I don't have that "bitmap" font installed on my computer, so you may want to just use an image of your intended text, or choose a generic sans-serif font. I forget if Flash allows a secondary font choice (like HTML), but if it does, merely add "sans-serif" next to your desired font choice.
 
Yeah, You didn't sent me the email yet. Do you still have the problem?
 
No it is all fixed now.
 
Jon showed it to me a few days ago, I'm impressed!

Good job, gigo! 👍
 
Feedback:

The presentation is clean and layed out nicely. The flash banner above the forums is a nice touch as well. The font/color combination is a little annoying and not very nice on the eyes. It's still legible, just a little hard on 'em is all. Not all the links are active on the tabs, but I'm sure you knew that. The filmstrip/movie effect on the screenshot box is a nice touch, and you gotta just love the helecopters! Anyhow, lookin good!
 
It looks good to me, and like TAFJonathan mentioned, the text size is small... I have seen other sites that the text was so small I could not even comprehend what is said because they did not take into account the fact of several platforms (Text tends to look smaller on Macs than on PCs.) I can read it, barely.
 
Do you play Americas Army? If so whats your honor?
 
The site does look great. Good job. :)

Personally, i see nothing wrong with the colors, they are fine. But, the font size under "Welcome to the Renegade Squad's homepage" is too small, especially for that font. Try a small Arial instead, or just make the text bigger. :)
 
Great site I like it! Do you pay for it? If you don't can you post the site you used to make it? Please.
 
Sweet job dude. You're definitely better at flash than i am. :)
 
Jon mentioned the text thingy to me.

The original font was a lil' more closed in than this more spaced out version called 'Silkscreen'

I will change the main text font but I am afraid of what font will satisfy me and others while keeping the design smooth and not too bulky.

The forum header needs to be condensed by 5 pixels in width because at the moment at 800 x 600 it is justified fully....I want some breathing space.

Nice feedback guys!
 
Looks good, but I'd change 1 thing. The scrolling function you have would get pretty tiresome, instead, try to have a mouseover option to scroll.
 
You think, sometimes people have their mouse over buttons for too long and find it difficult to co-ordinate it with a click it is more controllable and it isn't like your scrolling more than 5 lines of text is it not?
 
no, but if you don't want a mouseover, you could try to have it so you don't have to click for every line. It gets kind of tiresome...
 
Alpha man your back. I got some news for you. I will be on MSN tonight.
 
I have been sick for the last 5 or so days and I am just coming right.....finally.
