My new layout-do you like it or not?

[pokenightmare]

I would like to hear your comments on my new layout for my site.

http://pokenightmare.com/layout/2/index2.php

I know the links don't work so don't comment on that. Also, what should I do about that black space beside the banner? Any ideas? Suggestions?
I like the gray so don't tell me to change the colors.

Thank you.

Use a banner bg code and do it that way. The crits....*Dum dum dum...*

8/10:

The sidebars need to be *gray*, to match the banner and the rest of the layout. And, a little more detail wouldn't hurt, would it? The layout is nice, but a little too simple. You need to either make a banner bg code and apply it, or make a longer banner.

Nice job overall! :P

Wow its really nice do you think you can make me A layout

I think it's pretty good. Nothing else to say.

Personally, I would like the banner to stretch a little farther so it covers both nav sections.

However, the layout is a major improvement compared to your current one :D

[Geometric-sama]

Banner should stretch over the whole top, and the columns should reach down to the bottom of the page. Apart from that... it's OK.

I would suggest having a repeating background behind the background and align the banner to the left. I like your layout for some reason. However your side bars need to be straight grey, like #555555 and #242424. All patterned double patterned and same hex codes are grey. You're layout is very clean though and looks very easy to main. Of course valid html should be implemented.

How would I make the nav bars go to the bottom of the page? And Myuureon, what's the banner bg code?

[PichuSecretBase]

I don't think you need to but you would have to somehow use a background...

[Blaze]

I personally think the nav bars are fine...

As long as you stretch the banner it would be perfect, and half the work XD

[pokenightmare]

If I stretch the banner it still has to work on all screen resolutions and on all browsers.

[Blaze]

Well even if you decide not to, it still is a very good layout.

I am quite with your improvement either way, so keep up the good work.

<div style="background: url(image); text-align: left;"><img src="banner"></div> Make a background and put the banner as the image.

The only way you can see sidebars is w/ I.E., FireFox PWNZ I.E. and Your layout is awesome...9/10 ^^

I'll go ahead and try that.

[Geometric-sama]

Or even just set the background colour on the div, as you've got a solid background on your banner anyway~

[Himawarii]

It looks rather nice.I couldn't possibly make a banner only put in pics like my Botan layout.

[pokenightmare]

Okay, I have the layout on my site now.

But I still don't know how to make the nav bars go all the way down.

[Geometric-sama]

Easiest way in that case is to table the whole thing and make the outer columns backgrounded.

How would I put the layout in tables?

[Geometric-sama]

<table>
<tr>
<td width="100%">banner bit</td>
<tr>
<td width="whatever" bgcolor="#something">left sidebar here</td>
<td width="whatever">content bit here</td>
<td width="whatever" bgcolor="#something">rightsidebar here</td>
</tr>
</table>

[saul]

well, I like the banner 'sept for one thing, the links on it... try and make it stand out more, maybe give it a border? and the banner would look better over the nave bars =P

[pokenightmare]

<table>
<tr>
<td width="100%">banner bit</td>
<tr>
<td width="whatever" bgcolor="#something">left sidebar here</td>
<td width="whatever">content bit here</td>
<td width="whatever" bgcolor="#something">rightsidebar here</td>
</tr>
</table>
I'll try that when I have time.
