Hey everyone,
Fitness
First I'd like to thank EVERYONE who has helped me in the forums and of course the PostNuke team for providing PN to everyone. I absolutely love it and without it I don't know what I would do with my lists of random ideas. Thank you soo much.
I have finally gotten my PN site to be something that looks like others could go to it and get helpful information. I made the website about bodybuilding, one of my hobbies. However, I am not sure whether or not I should begin advertising it and getting people to go there or do more add-ons and get more content. Theres always fine tweaking to do and I'm not sure if that will ever end so maybe I should just start editing.
Any suggestions on the site or what I should would be plenty welcome
Peace,
John

LOL, dont listen to the jazz guy in that post, he doesnt know what he is talking about and his site is crap. As far as the load image, remove that particular javascript from your theme. -

so...the code is...
Code
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="<!--[$themepath]-->/style/style.css" type="text/css">
<!--[additional_header]-->
<!--[pnphpbbstylesheet]-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/showimages.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/openwindow.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function hideLoadingPage() {
document.getElementById ? document.getElementById('loading').style.display = 'none' // DOM
: document.all ? document.all.loading.style.display = 'none' // IE 4
: null; // unsupported
}
//-->
</script>
</head><!-- Home template -->
<body onload="hideLoadingPage();">
<div id="loading" align="center" onclick="hideLoadingPage()">
<b><!--[pnml name=_LOADING]--></b><br /><br />
<!-- <img src="<!--[$themepath]-->/images/loading.gif"><br /> -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="<!--[$themepath]-->/javascript/loadtimerbar.js"></script><br />
<!--[pnml name="_LOADMSG1"]--><br /><!--[pnml name="_LOADMSG2"]-->
</div>
<div id="header">
<a href="index.php"><img class="pnleft" src="<!--[$imagepath]-->/logoshort.png" width="230" height="91" border="0" align="top" alt="<!--[sitename]-->" /></A>
and I could safely chop that down to
Code
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="<!--[$themepath]-->/style/style.css" type="text/css">
<!--[additional_header]-->
<!--[pnphpbbstylesheet]-->
</head><!-- Home template -->
<body>
<div id="header">
<a href="index.php"><img class="pnleft" src="<!--[$imagepath]-->/logoshort.png" width="230" height="91" border="0" align="top" alt="<!--[sitename]-->" /></A>
That would be removing all three javascripts (openwindow, loadtimer and the onload deal + the onload deal out of the beginning of the body. Would that be fine?
thanks a lot for your input -

LOL - yes ignore the Jazz man behind the curtain - don't delete that stuff.
I don't care for loading graphic myself as it loads quickly enough. It's like there it is then its gone. Sort of pointless. Maybe on a page that you were loading a video into or something.
maybe left justify the main menu block? Looks a little out of place compared to the rest.
Dump the PN favicon. A barbell or something would look spiffy.

I might be wrong, but i only have the below code load for the admin section as this is just used for the help popups for each module.
Code
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/showimages.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/openwindow.js"></script>
I also have a seperate template for the forum, so its CSS is only loaded for it. I dont need pnphppbb styling for every other page of the site.
Code
<!--[pnphpbbstylesheet]--> -

I just made another template file, such as forum.htm and then set it as a template wrapper in the xanthia admin area. The pnphppstylesheet tag still goes in the same place, but just in the forum.htm file and not any of the other templates. -

OK, I have a few suggestions but I've created an image with the feedback because its easiest for me -- I'm a very visual person. :)
Take a look and use what you'd like http://www.designs4nuke.com/reviews/cf_feedback.gif
Here are my comments and suggestions:
- -- The headers and accent color should be a bold color - I suggest orange since this is a sports site and you need something strong, bold, and has energy!
- -- Next the center block header should be a strong black bold font - not blue - you could use the orange color but you don't want to overdo it and keep it in key areas so users will not move around the page and get confused.
- -- My suggestion for the link colors is to loose the blue and use a dark gray with an orange hover. Keep the underline for the links since this will provide the user with a visual clue that this is an active link - along with the orange hover.
- -- I would use a CSS li class to provide a different style for your left side nav bar - the typical bullets are a bit too common.
- -- That's all-- overall great start and good use of white space. :)

That is some amazing feedback. Thank you so much. I am really busy today but maybe we could talk later about it and some about designs4nuke.com, I may be interested in being somewhat of a client, I need to figure out some budgeting and what I can do myself but I really liked what you did. I will PM you tomorrow (Tuesday) and maybe we can talk in more depth.
I need to get a smaller CSS file and an overall smaller page file (takes too long to load). And I don't understand a lot of style.css because some of the things I change don't end up the way I had expected.
Peace

Hello,
I'm still working on getting a halfway decent looking site so I can start showing people, do you think I could get the PSD file you used for that logo with the dumbell?
Happy Holidays!
Thanks a ton
