STFU. S T F U. S-T-F-U. STOP making new topics about your dumb website. N O B O D Y C A R E S.
It's NOT worth a new topic, fucker. OMG ROFL! DOES ANYONE HERE RECONIZE THAT SITE DESIGN?! ROFL ROFL ROFL!!! I'm glad I made my own template
wow. just wow. also... the download links are fucked.
Just so you know, the author will allow you to remove the "made by" thing, at least he let me remove it when I used this template. It looks like you took a ugly stick to it, though.
Well im getting it to look pretty nice now, but i still need someone with mad paint shop skills. I did however put together our flag. *Edit* The downloads are messed up because the bot mods i have are all messed up, and the place i got them from is messed up too. But im adding the nocd.exe today and maybe something else.
Well, I have some mad paintshop pro skills, but I do not have the ideas to create a website template image.
Looking good now but the most important thing is missing (apart from messed up links); Add something to the main page, immediately or quickly visible, about what the site is actually about and what's on it. example. n00bstories.com quickly explains its purpose, and in any case, if you go there you are most likely a gamer who knows what a noob is anyways.
This is a simple non-hulking thing. http://apocmedia.com/ The URL quickly explains what it is. This banner explains the site, as does the URL, n00bstories.com You don't need HULKING banners that annoy people, all you need is a little something that explains what the purpose is. This made me go, "wtf?!" Also, remove the links that are like "N/A" and if you want, use a WYSIWYG editor, like Nvu. I used it until I used Photoshop and Nvu screwed up my template, so, yeah... Though when I used the template you have I had no trouble whatsoever with Nvu. http://nvu.com/
So what ideas do you have for me that could "Explain" my website better from the get go? I like my banner, but I will make one that is not pixleated or have someone do it for me. But what do YOU think would help make it better?
Take away the flames, replace with black design a new top logo to the specific size, and again for the one above the links. Should be ok after that.
I don't get why you have a big logo anyways
Ok... First it needs to be framed batter. the text in the middle just looks cramped. i would go with some sort of rusted metal motif with flecked red pain. This is because I like Nod. i suppose you could go with a yellow one. Templates arent all that hard to come by. This is if you have photoshop and can use it. If you need tutorials go here. http://www.pixel2life.com/ If you are just starting out with photoshop go here. Janee has everything you need. Do the tutorials in the order she recommends at the bottom. http://myjanee.home.insightbb.com/tutorials.htm Then you need a banner. One that isn't pixlated. These are not hard to make. It just takes a little imagination. For a banner try Red scorpion on one side. Black back ground, Picture of kane on the other. Use a soft eraser or mask to mix them together, then have renegade or command and conquer printed in the middle with a nice text effect. make a simple boarder. Then a simple black back ground for the rest with do ya fine. A simple presentation is what you need. For the time being anyway. I-------------------I I-------------------I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I --------------------- This might not help you, but I figure i might as well try and help. Feel free to flame if this isnt a very good idea or i'm just plane wrong.
deadfive So what ideas do you have for me that could "Explain" my website better from the get go? I like my banner, but I will make one that is not pixleated or have someone do it for me. But what do YOU think would help make it better? Change the text font, remove the N/A links, make a smaller, better banner that's the same size as the one that came with the template, use one topic to discuss this site, and do other stuff that anyone else suggests.
The banner is the size of the one that came with the site, I am currently working on a non-pixleated version. But what should i replace the N/A links with? And like I said, we are in need of a graphics artist. You can see what goodies you get access to as an affiliate on our main page. Anyone have any more ideas? Keep the ides, coming.
No. No that banner isn't. No. Just no. OMG no. Like totally no. Like the image tag says you lie. You dirty lying bastard.
MAKE ONE MORE TOPIC WITHIN THREE DAYS AND I SWEAR TO GOD ALL OF US WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND SHELL YOUR COMPUTER TO DEATH.
Rarely do I ever see a website with a banner that is 193 pixels in height. A banner will start to look like ass after it getting about 150 pixels in height imo. Height: 100 px width: 500 px Height: 150 px width: 500 px (Don't ask I know these are simple and boring as well) See the difference in which one looks better?
Definately lose the n/a links, before you do anything else. The banner could do with shortening by about 30%. Apart from that it looks better than anything I've done.
You'll learn in time how to create a nice layout and such. I've been creating websites, toying with HTML since I was about 10. Even after that many years I still suck ass at anything graphical... lol. What I'm trying to get at is that give it time, keep working on it. You'll learn how to improve it. Your site right now: The layout is defiently improving. If possible find a different host for your images that isn't going to keep yelling at you about remote linking because half the time I just see a huge banner that says: "No Hotlinking" or something of that nature. If you haven't tried some web editors already I would suggest Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004. I know many will say that it sucks, give it a try. You can get a 30 day trial, and you can probably find a way to "extend" it. I did however, buy an actual copy. Don't let people get you discouraged, just keep working on it. If you enjoy doing it, that's the most important thing.

I agree with him, therefore I quote him. Sick asshole, how can you think of shit like that? :tellme:

Ok when designing a template for your site or choosing one you should always consider the minimal of what you need and then build your way up. Lets take for example apocmedia.com and animerush.org. Apocmedia is a designing group so I had to design to our specifications. The site had to look "Cool." So I came up with a basic layout with black boxes then built onto that. The banner is very complex and I do not recommend you try anthing like that as a beginner. AnimeRush is very minimalistic. It conveys news and downloads and that is all I need it for. No extravagant design or anything like that. I suggest you try something like that for your first template. This is my entire attempt at not calling you a fucking retard and dumping your n00bie ass out on the ground.
the look of that animerush forums is stellar, good work demin.

I was just saying that he should keep with it.
Vitaminous Stop quoting everybody. ...And most importantly stop raping your mom. deadfive Mad Hatter, you are a moron. First, that so called "EMAIL" from EA probobly is a fake. Secondly, they wouldnt change kanes name. And even if they did the choices wouldnt be names like Dave, ect. And lastly, who did you get the email from? "IF ITS REAL" One thing, EA sucks, we all know it. But even they wouldnt bother to go BACK and change kanes name or the earlier red alerts. I think this, at least needs quoting again....

For the love of christ, an Affiliate is NOT someone who helps around the site!

Good on him, but he needs to work on it a lot before he can show it off.
I'm pretty sure the Paper Clip was trying to say R-E-B-O-R-N S-U-C-K-S
Wow! While we're spamming, how about we all go buy some skins!

Have you guys actually looked at his site recently? He changed the layout again. 110% better IMO. For those too lazy to go back to the beginning of the topic, http://www.rengen.20fr.com/
Way to go deadfive! Lookin' better - I still want you to work on that 'Rengen' banner - still a little rough around the edges. The over-all look of the site is MUCH better.
Nobody can learn to make, slice and code a website in the space of 1 week. It's a template.
http://www.clantemplates.com wow he is so talented *not* http://www.clantemplates.com/index.php?act=Templates&CODE=01&CID=18 Looser, its better to have your extreamly crappy site than just downloading one and adding content.
Actually, he never says he made it. And I quote: Quote: New layout and design-again I have been laying down new designs for our website about everyday and I finally came across this template after long hours of searching. Its a well laid out and balanced design so I decided to use it. Enjoy!
Actually, he never said he never says he made it! cowmisfit www.clantemplates.com wow he is so talented *not* http://www.clantemplates.com/index.php?act=Templates&CODE=01&CID=18 Looser, its better to have your extreamly crappy site than just downloading one and adding content. gbull gg
Give him a break, I used a template when I first started. For over 3/4 of the short life of the TriElite, I have used templates. I just recently started to make my own templates (I don't know why but I really like my most recent one).
A bit contradictory don't you think Glyde? You found this guy real controversial earlier this week :/ One minuit you ahte his next minuite you tell us to give him a break :s
He started using one topic, what can I say? and it actually looks good this time around, and he hasn't made a topic in the past while.
Your website looks okay. but you still suck.
Thanks for the support, and the site does look 110% better. And I didnt make the template, never said i did. I said i came accross it.
Hey glyde, not to make this sound negative in any way, or sound like i dont like your site, but it doesnt show up properly on my pc. The top chrome/silver bar is out of place. Just thought id let you know. Dont think im bashing your site cuz im not either,
It looks fine for me in Firefox and IE
Im using IE, but im on my parents pc which runs 800x600 resolution, matbe it only works on higher resolutions?
It's definetely easier on the eyes, but I've never liked using templates.
deadfive Im using IE, but im on my parents pc which runs 800x600 resolution, matbe it only works on higher resolutions? Personally, I can't stand a resolution of 800 by 600. Everything is as big as hell. 1024 by 768 is okay but I like 1152 by 864
i hate 800x600 to, way to big. Hate having to scroll side to side...
My monitor sucks, and so do you guys. 1024x768 @ 75hz.
lol, my personal pc runs at 1280x1024 @ 85Hz
deadfive's Signature file:///C:/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/RenGenLOGOMAIN2.jpg You lack website knowledge. No one will see that except for you. You don't link images that are on your own computer, you upload them to a site and get the link from there.
no shit, i think i know that since i know how to do that with my own site.
Then why do you link your signature picture to your own documents?
Have to, my host doesnt allow remote linking access...rip offs
*cough* get an account at n00bstories.com and host you picture there *cough*
deadfive Have to, my host doesnt allow remote linking access...rip offs I don't see the point in doing it if NOBODY will ever see it except you... it just makes you look unprofessional with a broken image in your signature that links to your own files. Upload it to here: http://www.imageshack.us
He's doing it with html, and he needs to add border="0" in order to get rid of it. It wouldn't be a problem if he used [img]
He needs to lose the crappy RenGen in the Renegade text. Make one without it that will look 10 times better.
Sorry cant lose the rengen, its mine and my websites trademark.
Is it really trademarked or do you say it's trademarked?
I did not mean legally trademarked. Its just a personal logo i like, and do you have anything better to fo than bash my logo? You need a girlfriend.
If you want that... just ask and I'll PM you the PSD and JPG.
deadfive I did not mean legally trademarked. Its just a personal logo i like, and do you have anything better to fo than bash my logo? You need a girlfriend. 1. I did not bash it. 2. I need a girlfriend just because I "bashed" your logo? Try not to push real life into this topic.
Him having a girlfriend isnt going to make your website any less shitty.
Girlfriends aside, it's not that shitty. At least he had the sense to try something new, and he didn't try and say that he made it him self. I think it's a perfectly admiral attempt. I mean come one, the whole bloody internet is infested with shit websites, the people who made them those don't even try to make them better. At least he tries, That has to be worth something. That's not all that bad... It's a template, but if your just staring off its probably the best place to start. As soon as you can try and change it to something original.
deadfive I did not mean legally trademarked. Its just a personal logo i like, and do you have anything better to fo than bash my logo? You need a girlfriend. And you need to back to your action man dolls :rolleyes:
He's working, he's learing. We can't exactly say he sucks over and over again.
deadfive no shit, i think i know that since i know how to do that with my own site. Don't know bout you lot but this made me want to hurt him.
glyde51 He's working, he's learing. We can't exactly say he sucks over and over again. Yes we can.
Opalkilla glyde51 He's working, he's learing. We can't exactly say he sucks over and over again. Yes we can. lolololololololol At least make it original, like something other than FUCK YOU!
Opalkilla glyde51 He's working, he's learing. We can't exactly say he sucks over and over again. Yes we can. I was just about to say that too, so I'll quote it instead.
j4S[p ] If you want that... just ask and I'll PM you the PSD and JPG. That's pretty awesome
