Hey guys,

Check out my website, Jamison Designs:
http://jdesigns.myexh.com

I now accept PayPal only as a payment option, I used to accept GreenZap (the reason, is because I believe it is going to be a scam), but thats a no more! Hopefully I'll see more customers because of this change. Maybe even some customers from this forum :)

I've also recently changed the site layout too. It looks much better.

Jamison Designs, you related to Jenna? Nice site, tops my first site. For payment always use paypal, it is the most popular and secure. It would be nice to see the site centered, I think thats an attrubute you can add to body in your CSS. I am just starting to learn CSS so I do not want to give you any wrong code about that. One thing I say in my other posts is: "I will YELL for this. TAKE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS OFF OF YOUR SITE and use a CONTACT FORM. I have my email on my site, do you know how many emails I get A DAY for viagra? 7-10"

To me contact form is better than using email. Some people use hotmail and when you click a mailto: link to email you, it opens up Outlook Express, outlook or the specified mail program on the system. Some people don't have that.

Good Luck! Learn C++ and NEVER forget it with the video games

Thanks for the reply shawnmichaels (I feel like I'm talking to the wrestling...). I've been meaning to center the layout. Thanks for mentioning it.

Oh, and I was just about to get started on a contact form. lol :)

Thanks for the luck, but why do you say "Learn C++ and NEVER forget it with the video games"? I do plan on learning C++ though...

Yeah i like the site, it has a nice clean layout - good information. Not bad at all!!!

I was a bit late looking at it so it is centred now - Looks better that way!

Nice work

get rid of the border on the top it duplicates and makes it look bad (the border on the top of your contents) you shouldn't be using tables for layout expessialy on this site (my site is the same design and will load faster has more content only because i have used divs and css for layout) your only using css1, you should expand to css2.. read the sticky in this forum for more information on what im talkin bout. good luck

Tables are the best, and most used for creating layouts. DIVs aren't supported as much.

I have heard that a lot of video games are programmed with C++. There is a good school called Full Sail in winterpark FL that teaches the video game thing

Oh okay. I was just planning to take some courses at Brown College in Wisconsin for Game Design and Development.

Anyway, back on topic. I'd be happy to hear some more reviews and what people think :)

Hi Gonavitch -

Yikes - There are too many shades of blue going on. I'd suggest a three shade limit.

It would probably be better if you put the style attributes in an external stylesheet.

As with the blue, you might want to select one or two font sizes and stick with them: heading, content, navigation. Too many are distracting to the eye - they also don't look that professional.

You should try to keep the design of your forum as close to the design of the rest of the site as possible. Even if the program is different, or it is controlled by a template, you can still program it to use the same logo, colors, and fonts.

(Oh, by the way, tables are stinky. And, layouts CAN be created with CSS - I do that for my clients all the time.)

Good Luck!

imma hafta pull the BS flag on that one... everyone of my layouts are done with css and work fine in ie, netscape, firefox, and opera...

do you have any information to back that statement up?
