<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

a sea background wouldn't really fit. You see, its "tertal", not "turtle" (click on the title)
The logo is just ironic. :ph34r:

I will work on centering it on the page, and I'll mess with the menu.


-------


I've centered the page, and I spread the menu out a bit. I hope that helps.

Further suggestions are welcome!

No, I didn't get one. Mostly because I don't know what a Force FX is.
By the way, What's a Force FX? :)
--------
Ohhh, a force FX replica lightsaber. Okay, I knew that. sorry. No, I couldn't really spend the money on one of those, though I did use some pictures of them for drawing those sprites.

Thanks for the compliments. B)

whoa nice site. it has few images but the simplicity is almost perfect.
first off, wtf is up with your nav bar? you should fix it, becuse it looks as if something got absoltuly placed and it looks tactically horrible.

I have no idea what you are talking about, ShadowStrike32. If you would screenshot the page with the error, then maybe I could see what you mean.
Maybe it has something to do with screen resolution, but I need more information to fix it.
I would appreciate your assistance on the problem.

Well, I've used online screen resolution testers to see what my site looks in bigger resolutions, and it has appeared just fine. It wouldn't make sense for that to be the problem anyway, now that I think on it. I don't think it is a browser issue, because half of my page views aren't IE like I am (so I would have more people telling of an error). This problem is puzzling.

If ANYONE has seen any problems with my site like that one stated above, please let me know.

That's very weird, I've can't imagine why it's doing that. What browser version do you have? What resolution? Did it say what "problem loading page"? Did it do that on each page, or just the index?

Please help!

That screenshot doesn't show my background, has a broken image, and messes up the nav bar, all of which works fine in my browser. (The favorite icon is working. That's odd, because it doesn't work on my computer).

This is what I see:

I think your star wars sprites are really good. I also think your site looked better on a black bg.

If you view it in Firefox the sites background is completely black, if you view it in IE you can see the grey (Metal Type?) Background.

The Nav bar looks far better in IE.

It's quite a nice little site.
Consistant all the way through. B)

The only negative I have to say is about the Home Page.
Down the bottom it tells me what browser I'm using.
Unfortunatly it says I'm using Microsoft Internet Explorer, when in fact, I'm using a web browser I created myself. << But then again it's probably built upon Microsoft IE, so I'm not gonna hold it against your site. -_-

I've made some changes that should fix some errors. Try it now, shadowstrike.
(my html was riddled with mistakes!)

I still need someone with firefox to let me know how it looks. I don't have firefox, so I can't check it. It should look more like the screenshot I posted awhile ago.
Please.

ALWAYS check your site in firefox before releasing it, a LOT of people use it, and it displays things correctly. IE is messed up. Not having it isn't an excuse, it's free!

Yes, I know firefox is better, free, etc. It's not my decision on downloading firefox, as it is not my personal computer. Yes, I should have checked it before I released my site; consider me scolded.
Anyway, I still would appreciate someone actually letting me know if I fixed it or not. Thanks in advance.
