    • [Pokemon Website] PokéBreak

    *UPDATE*
    I changed the name of the website
    ----------------------------------------

    Hey people!
    Since I had some free time this weekend I came up with a simple pokémon blog/community.
    Here goes:
    https://pokebreak.000space.com

    Before I buy domain and hosting (or find a kind webmaster to help me out by hosting the website ... which I prefer more) and fill up all the information (because that is gonna be a lot of work) I'd like to get your comments on the look and feel of the website.

    I used HTML, CSS and PHP in the making process. There's a really simple login/logout system so that posting/editing or deleting is not possible for normal visitors but only for the administrator(s).
    If any of you more advanced webmasters find some gap in the back-end security please share with me xD

    I'm open to any critiques and personal opinions so please don't worry to say what you need to!

    I like the look and feel of it; I just hope that you replace all of the text from "lorem ipsum..." to actual text. ^_^

    • The nav headers should be flipped on the right sidebar... it looks weird having the same thing on both sides.

    • Thank you all for the kind words!

    @TheAppleFreak Of course I will! As soon as I get satisfied with the results I will team up some people to help me fill you everything I need to.

    @Yusshim I suggest you look for some tutorials on web development and after that ... you know - practice makes best! With the time you'll get good :]

    @Tyler Thank you!

    @aRedMoon I did try doing that at first but it didn't look as cool as you might think >_<

    @Milk Actually it's only me making the website and thanks for the idea. I'll think of something maybe :]

    Nice, clean cut website. I have to admit I was impressed though the only thing that would bother me would be the background, though it is nice and colourful and everything, it annoys me that it's pretty much all covered by the body of the page. I would suggest either cutting out the pokemon altogether or making it so that there's images on the right of the background so that they can be seen.
    On another note "2disableSelection(document.body)" is easily bypassed but overall this is quite neat and clean.
    Grey & black can get a little boring though, that'd be my one issue.

    Thanks, Gav!
    I got a nice idea from what you said about cutting some of the pokemon.
    Will it be cool if I cut some pokemon and set them on the two sides of the body and they scroll along with the page?

    'Bout the disable of selection and right click ... I know xD
    I personally bypass it on other pages that use such JS codes :D
    I'll try to find another solution.

    It's looking great, and yes I think you should do that with the background.
    You should also add a "How" heading under the event pokemon. For example:
    How:
    Wi-Fi
    Or something along those lines. Nice updates though, it's looking good.

    • I'll host you. PM me if you're interested.

    And I dun really like the subtitle - it's kinda generic. Maybe do a play off the name? "Breaking Pokemon news, events, and updates!" or something cheesy like that. :P

    ...and still don't like the right navbars, despite you saything they look weird reversed :\

    • ...guess I was too slow in replying :x OH WELL~

    Don't use bit.ly links as a "main" link to your site, btw.

    The moving icons on the right sidebar kinda bug me >_>

    • Your layout is quite simple, but allows easy navigation to everything on your site. There are just a couple of things I have picked up on:
    - The very top of the content bugs me, I don't know why it's like something is meant to be there, like a header saying 'News & Updates' or 'News' or even 'PokéBreak'.
    - Your news layout seems a bit all over the place, make the headings stand out more, so people want to read the news. Each individual post should be separate from each other, however they seem to blend together, because of nothing standing out telling you they are separate.
    - The animated icons on the right menu draw your eyes away from what you want to be concentrating on: the content.
    - I hate how you have disabled right click and highlight. Right click is needed really for a website, because some people may want to open some pages in new tabs, but cannot.
    - Affiliates is spelt wrong on the right menu, make sure it says 'Affiliates'.
    - In the content section why is there a massive gap at the right hand side?

    Hope I've helped you a bit here, sorry if I've sounded mean at all throughout that, I wish you luck with your website.
