I always get restless with my site design, so here's the latest. This time around, I just wanted someone simple, yet cool. And what is cooler than a chick with a sword? Of course, the art is by Michael Turner and the character is Kiani, the newest heroine in his comic, 'Fathom'. This is from a 3 poster set that they have available right now. In the future I'll probably incorporate the other posters in the layout.
So...what do you all think?
Posted by Yano at May 22, 2004 09:37 AMMUCH better! Like Jim Carrrey says, "I like it ALOT" :)
I like it but about a 1/4 of each of your posts I can't read or have a hard time reading because they overlap Kiani and I can't see the type. But it's still cool.
Posted by: Melinda on May 22, 2004 10:51 AMI LOVE it, I think I said that already. It's very elegant and dramatic all the same, even though I haven't got a clue about Kiani. She kicks ass, though.
Posted by: Noelle on May 22, 2004 10:56 AMMel - right now if you have anything less than 1024x768, you might have problems. It's a design choice I had to make, vs. making the site load slower with a change in opacity....
Posted by: yano on May 22, 2004 11:56 AMWhat do I think? I think you're making me crazy, that's what I think. Stop changing things! I'm a old lady. I can't adjust. *sigh*
Ok, now for my serious comment. It's a bit difficult to read. On my monitor the text looks very um...broken, I guess you could say. But like I said, I'm old and have bad eyesight, so maybe it's just me.
Posted by: Denise on May 22, 2004 02:15 PMvery nice! i like! :)
Posted by: bumblebootie on May 22, 2004 02:30 PMInteresting, Denise - anyone else having problems with the blog text? Right now it's using 'Palatino' as the font, if you don't have it on your machine, I'll put in some alternate fonts that the system can use.
Posted by: yano on May 22, 2004 02:36 PMIt looks nice Christine though I have no idea who she is.
Posted by: Sue on May 22, 2004 04:29 PMHow do I check to see if it's the right font?
Posted by: Denise on May 22, 2004 04:36 PMI'm diggin' it. Like the colors, and on 1024 X 769 it's just perfect.
Posted by: April (lil ape) on May 22, 2004 05:28 PMOkay I changed to 1024x768 but it doesn't help because now I can't read it because everything is too small. It's not fun turning 40 darn it! ;) I guess I'll just stick to looking at the pictures. lol!
Posted by: Melinda on May 22, 2004 05:36 PMit looks GREAT!!!! i like it.
what is the name of the font you've used in your title and section titles? i've seen that everywhere and i have no idea what the name is... i might use that in a redesign i'm itching for, too.
Posted by: waterlily on May 23, 2004 10:24 AMThis is exactly the sort of stuff my daughter is into Yano :) She even has a sword. Very edgy and cool. But I'm in the same boat with Denise....these old eyes have to strain to read the print. It's showing clearly, but very small. Just cruising around your site is like a trip to the store though....full of interesting stuff :)
