New site under construction at DVinfo.net

K. Forman · September 1st, 2003, 04:26 PM

Hi all-
Finally getting around to getting my website online again. As I'm doing a major redesign, I was hoping for comments and critiques... especially if it doesn't show right on your machine/browser/monitor or any other bugs and glitches.
Thanks

Looks pretty good on my Mac using Safari Keith. As you stated the site is under construction so I guess thats why the Nav links at the top are not functioning for me ( or maybe it is a Safari bug ). Side links work and it displays well in my browser.
I did notice that the counter link if clicked on tries to display in the side frame. A trailer would look great , I am shure that one is forth coming. (Time, there is either too much or too little of it depending on what one is doing)

There are no links at to, just the left side... I'm adding more as I get to it. The web counter is a totally messed up bit of code. I had nothing to do with it, other than cut and paste as Doteasy said. I guess it wasn't meant to be used in frames.

I will also have a trailer, but need to have it shot first. No film, no trailer. Funny the way that works :)

But thanks for letting me know it looks ok. I used to do all websites in 800x600, but figured most folks have higher resolutions these days. So, I'm just not sure if it views badly on other monitors.

It views all right on my screen.

As for stats, I can tell you that we track our incoming browsers at Clipstream.com and almost half have their screen res at 1024x768 and a third are at 800x600. The rest are single digit percentages.

So you are safe designing for 800x600. Or you could design for it to scale either way.

If you want an opinion on the graphics you can email me.

Hi.

Nice idea and content. I work for a small new media company who specialise in web design and streaming media. I'm willing to redesign a few aspects of the page for free if you require. Email me at daviddrysdale2002@hotmail.com if interested.

Regards
