Here is the website I made for the Plainedge High School robotics club. We have a web journal with updates and news. We also have some pics of our practice robot.

If you have any comments or suggjestions, please post them

Looks very nice. Might I recommend that you lose the Times New Roman font (which I think is the ugliest font ever)...

I don't think you have to get rid of all of it... Maybe just make the menu font something else? Bankgothic is a pretty cool text if you have it.

Don't forget to check your spelling..."Useful Links" is spelled wrong.

I's also like to see some color distinction btw the font and the red background on the tabs....black on red doesn't work well on monitors. White, or grey maybe?

Also, for asthetics, either shorten the box around the FIRST logo on the main page to match the width of the picture below it or vice versa...but that's just cause I'm picky

But it loaded great, most of the content is in the main screen, and you have content on every page....great job!

Thanks for all of the usefull comments!


Yea....one day I have to go through and check all of the spelling. I rush a little to get all of the content up and sometimes I don't check it over well enough.

My monitors are so bright that the red on black looks fine. I really do have to take into consideration that not everyone has their brightness to 100 %. I really like the way red looks on the tabs but there is no color that goes with the scheme to contrast it well.

I try to use times new roman for parts of the site that have a lot of reading becuase it is much easier on the eyes. Most people learned to read in a serif font. I like arial or something similar for navigation and thats about it. I don't like the way arial looks for long parts of text.

The pictures on the front page are random. Some pictures line up with the First box and some do not. I will probably amke them all the same size one day.

ps-The banner lines up for me....maby its becuase ur on a mac. I only have a windows and a linux machiene I havent tested it fully on a mac.

Possibly, but I think i know why it shows up wrong... I've attatched a screenshot (i get the same results a few broswers on my PowerBook) Im fairly sure its just a lil bit of code. I did a test and this seemed to help. I'm going to personal message you the code because it only shows half my message on here.

ok i think i got it fixed....

I had <tr instead of <tr> and I had an extra <td> in there.

tell me if it works

ps... sry if the code is messy....its all databased and php just spits it out

[HFWang]

It still appears to be broken, I'm using mozilla firefox 0.8, similar results as above.

[iBob]

almost fixed, you've got the top image fixed over the member login, just take care of the bottom one and you should be good to go.

Hey, it could be worse.

[iBob]

I agree about the red and black. I'm not sure if this is just me but your top banner doesnt go over as far as everything below it. It just catches my eye and I'd suggest trying something to make that edge line up. Other than that nice site.
