New Website Layout

[Master_script_maker]

Hi guys. I just finished my new website layout and wanted to know what you think. Here it is: http://masterscriptmaker.co.cc/newsite/

Cool, reminds me a little of a WordPress layout but simple and clean :)

Nice, love it. Give the header a gradient. Yes - it does look kind of like a wordpress theme.

[Master_script_maker]

the header background?

[Nile]

Yes, I made a little gradient picture and changed it using firebug, it looked better. :) Of course its deleted so i cant give it to you.. Lol.

Quite nice, but I think you've overused the gutters. Stare at it long enough and it kind of starts to look like a partially-filled-in pencil sketch :p

Additionally, you need to avoid using pixel sizes. They don't scale well.

[Master_script_maker]

What should I convert to em's then? Aren't there items that will be messed up if they're scaled.

[Twey]

I don't see anything that couldn't be made flexible, except perhaps the shadow border on the header, but that doesn't really need to be scaled anyway — it's only a visual effect.

[Master_script_maker]

I changed my header and changed the css to make it resizeable. Tell me what you think: http://masterscriptmaker.co.cc/newsite/

[Twey]

Better :) You still don't need all those gutters, though. If you must have them, at least make them line up.

[Master_script_maker]

Ah yes. I forgot to fix that. Fixed
P.S. I was wondering why I would need to have my site scalable.

[Nile]

That wasn't the gradient I had in mind, try something like this (http://localhostr.com/files/ec4854/Untitled.png).

Ah yes thats much nicer. Thanks

[Twey]

P.S. I was wondering why I would need to have my site scalable.Because not everybody will be able to read text at the size you specified, due to display constraints, browser issues, bodily disabilities, or whatever.

[Master_script_maker]

Okay. thanks

I added some css for code and changed the footer. Tell me what you think.

[Twey]

I think the footer should be wider, to separate it from the content more.

Those gutters still don't quite line up, you know...

[Master_script_maker]

Yes I have seen that. Could you show me how to fix it?

[Master_script_maker]

I have added a CMS to my site. So far it is basic, but I am improving it. http://masterscriptmaker.co.cc/newsite/cms/

Yes I have seen that. Could you show me how to fix it?Well, you could resize the container around the header on the right to be the same size as the container on the left.
