Wow... o.o I would say that PokeRadio is your best layout yet. TPP's is good too, but a bit slow loading.
Robo, I have two things to say,

ONE- I agree, PRadio's is one of my favorite ones yet! ^^
TWO- Your Sith avatar just freaked my sister out :D

Thanks for the comments ^^
I'll start the next on my list

Darth Sidious scared your sister? Aww... he's harmless... fairly. Just don't get him mad or he'll go spouting lightning everywhere... XD
One comment- you've always had a problem with 800x600 compatible layouts. Remember that 779 pixels wide is usually the way to go. You might be able to get away with 780, but most people go with 779.

I'll try to remember that. I never understood how that works but now you kinda explained it to me xD so just make it 779 pixels wide and it should work? anything else?

VChat, Looks great, I can't wait to see my layout on your site! ^^
CC, I don't do topsite skins, I don't know how. All I can do is edit the pictures = (

Actually I think most people do 780, I think...
I don't see why 780 wouldn't work anyway...

a few words of advice here if i may:

1) save all pics in gif format. try either irfanview or gimp. both are free and can save optimized gifs (difference is that irfanview is more of a viewer program whereas gimp is a full editing program like photoshop). going from png to gif, i was able to get all the layout pics reduced in size by a great amount doing this.

2) try to clean up the code a bit. such as the navigation bars. dont give each new line their own div tag. rather, keep the whole navbar in a single div tag

3) stay away from image maps as much as possible. div tags help here. check the changes i made to your code for examples of this.

i dont know how exactly you do all your work, so these may just be side effects of your work process. but keep up the good work and think about my suggestions a little bit.

Yep, the PokeRadio one is the best ever. :)


"One reason why mathematics enjoys special esteem, above all other sciences, is that its laws are absolutely certain and indisputable, while those of other sciences are to some extent debatable and in constant danger of being overthrown by newly discovered facts."
Albert Einstein

"What science can there be more noble, more excellent, more useful for men, more admirably high and demonstrative than mathematics."
Benjamin Franklin

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of paintings or music, yet sublimely pure and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show."
Bertrand Russell

No: "I'm going to make this site, so can you make a layout for it?"
Site URL - Well...I don't got one yet...

i have one small request saul if you dont mind :). since you were the one who did the logo for my site (which is awesome btw. thx again :)), do you think you could do one in a smaller format say banner sized (486x60), or smaller like 400x60. just curious. you dont have to do it if you dont want. i know you are busy with the rest of the requests here. :)
