Tell me what you think...

Here’s one of 675’s many websites (we have 3 up right now, this one, team675.com, and another), but this one was JUST updated. I’ve been using this same, simple, effecient design for about two years (although it only found it’s way onto 675’s website earlier this year, during build season).

Tell me what you think!

looks good. It’s really simple and “to-the-point”. Just a few comments, how did the blue color make its way into the whole scheme (rollover on links). The fonts are a little on the small side, and may be hard for people with bad vision to read.

Also, why do you guys have 3 websites? Or do you just mean 3 URLs (can’t think of the name… It’s late)

The blue color is actually our team’s main color. If anything, it’s the yellow that doesn’t fit (but it does contrast the yellow which is alright)

We have 3 seperate websites, yes. Mainly because we had one under our school’s host (that’s unsatisfactory), one under our leader’s host (the one I posted), and one under the person’s host (that’s team675.com).

i like it, very minimalist and sharp constrast with the header image.

the title’s double line thing does not fit in at all though

Yeah I’m not a big fan of the yellow line at the top either. The problem is that it’s the only place you use yellow on the page, yet it doesn’t really tie into anything.

The font was a bit small for me, and I’m not a big fan of serif fonts on webpages, but that’s just my personal preference.

Why the iframe? If you’re really concerned about saving your code make something in PHP or something to reuse the sidebar. Right now there aren’t any direct links to any of your pages.

Design=alright
Content=need more

Alright, I’ll admit. I’m pretty amateur at web design, and the layout I’m using is really, really basic.

I showed the site to my team leader today and he suggested that under the “Team Divisions”, I put links to each division, then explain what it does, etc. That’s not the important part.

I’m wondering… how can I make it so that .html files under different folders all access the same .css file? I don’t want to have 7 or 8 copies of the same .css file on the website if I can help it.

Thanks,

explains the minimalist design.

you can use implicit or explicit paths in your external css declaration if you didnt know.

e.g.
if our structure was
./
…/
-index.php
home/
-index.php
style/
-default.css

if you don’t already know, you link to an external css file using

<style type=“text/css” href=“(place link here)” />

IMPLICIT
a file in /home would link to
…/style/default.css

a file in / would link to
style/default.css

a file in /style would ink to
default.css

or you could just link to http://www.yoursite.com/style/default.css for simplicity, but sacrifice your site’s portability.

Lets see if I can remember the tree…

/
-/divisions
–/manu
–/digi
-/07season
-/06season

so for something in /divisions/manu, would I do this:

<style type=“text/css”>@import"…/…/style.css";</style>

?

why not just <style type=“text/css” href="…/…/style.css" /> ?

also this would only work if your style is in the root /

Uh, I was just copying what I wrote in the html files before, but no reason not to change it, really.

Yeah, the style.css will be in the root folder.

Thanks.

Also…

Check the link agian. I fixed some small content stuff (like the “I don’t know who 177 is” part on the main page), and changed the style/header. It’s blue-er now (to match our team’s color scheme).

Once again, though…

Ew frames. Is their a need for them?

wonder what i was thinking, its <link rel=“text/css” href=“blah.css” />
my bad.

I’m just using the same code I had before. It works, so that’s all that matters to me, really.

Thanks anyways. =]
