About the using Arial as a font, that was the origional font.

White backgrounds are hard for me to deal with. I never have liked using them.

Right now the font is Times New Roman, but I'll probably change it as Veranda (sp?)

Two languages I've never studied. :) Thanks for the correction.

I didn't mean to suggest that a serifed font be used here, only noting the difference.

If you expect anyone to spend a great deal of time looking at your work, I'd strongly consider another color scheme.

If you ever hope to market the skills you'll learn by doing this, you should also learn flexibility. :)

It's fine that you don't have a white background. I don't either. Some off-white / gray is better. And, from looking at your design 3, it really doesn't look that great either.

What, I think, would improve the design of you site a lot would be to use some tables with different bg colors. If you look at cd, i see 6 different colors for table backgrounds on the index alone. Also, if you notice, the main forums listing is 3 colors in. Trust me, the difference between a frotpage'ed site and hard-coded html is the fact that your tables (or backgrounds with the <div> tag or whatever it is if you don't like tables and go with total css) can have such color variation. I think cd has 3 different shades of gray. It makes it look much nicer that if it all was the same color.

Now, I'm not going ot claim to be any big-web/graphics person, but I will tell you that the human eye likes variation. Keep the colors mixed up. (But please... don't go throwing random colors together. Different shades of the same color can be very good.)

:D

You're welcome, they're the only two(other than English of course) that I have :D

I thought that was what you meant, but I wanted to make sure. I absolutely hate Times New Roman on websites and I didn’t want someone to misinterpret you and think it was a requirement for websites or something like that.

Thanks Brandon, and the rest.

Incase you didn't know, I worked on a white-background one, and now I've added more to it (it's the 3rd one on my first post of the thread).

Design 2 by far. It does not have layout problems as the others do, and the color scheme is superior to design 3.

Thank you...that's what everyone who showed up at our meeting said to. I'll probably just stick with that one.
