Hi guys,
I have started work on redesigning http://www.str8dog.com - my site . I have settled on a template and was wondering if I could get some commentary on it. Currently it is XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.0 compliant. I intend on getting it to XHTML 1.1 prior to continuing on dynamic elements. The site currently uses C#, XSLT and XML. ------------- http://www.str8dog.com/ - [IMG - http://www.str8dog.com/images/str8dog.gif - I wasn't born with enough middle fingers. |

Str8Dog. I like it. Really nice professional look. Can't wait to see how it grows. Are you planning to integrate WWF into it, and won't that compromise the xhtml ? ------------- ------------------------- TAM DOWNUNDER |

Hi Robert Not good enough, it’s a little boring to look at. It needs a logo or picture. You have also chosen some sad colors. But maybe it’s just me, and I will like to point out, that I’m not a designer but at programmer, but it is always easy to criticize. As you can se no ass-kissing here :) |

Thanks for the comments guys. I don't plan on integrating WWF, simply becuase to get WWF to XHTML 1.0 spec it would take a complete rewrite of the app. I do plan on implementing my own forum solution based on WWF some time in the future written in C#. That is months away as I only really have a few hours a week to work on this kinda stuff.
likedon, I can totally see you are not an ass kisser. Were you going for asshat maybe? Thanks for pointing out i need images and use sad colors. I'll keep that in mind.  ------------- http://www.str8dog.com/ - [IMG - http://www.str8dog.com/images/str8dog.gif - I wasn't born with enough middle fingers. |

It looks really good, and because there are no images it loads quickly. And i dont use 800 x 600 so its even better for me. Mart. |

yes, but it is only a few pixels away from 800, there is no need to extend it. In my opinion, if there is no designing need to stretch your design to 1024, it is better be no more than 800. |

I liked the: . . :. :: :.: ::.::: .:. .: : ::: .. :. .:..: :.. :: Looks cool. Can I steal it? hahaha I'm a minimalist, and like clean looks, so what you have is nice. BUT... it could use some sort of pizzaz somewhere... some certain 'je ne sais quois'. Perhaps a couple graphics or more content areas? Oh, and regarding: Str8Dog.com Get the Funk BackYou have to check out the "Realization" mp3 from Unknown Source. It's a sample mp3 done in either Reason. Check their websites for it... Just very funky cool stuff. Here's the link to the mp3... and YES... it is a LEGAL mp3 download.
