My Second Layout using CSS. In my opinion, it's alot better than the last.

Here is the current layout : http://lightning-1.com (http://lightning-1.com/)

And here is the new beta layout " http://lightning-1.com/homenew.php

I've currently got the layout working in Firefox 1.5 , IE 6, and Opera 9.
I'm going to get it working for IE 7 tonight.

Could someone people test these in other browsers aswell for me?

All ideas welcome.:party:

I looked at it in Firefox and it looked fine, but when I looked at it in Safari it's all messed up. Looks pretty good though, except I think there's a lot of empty space, I think it could be compressed.

man you have gotten better, this is way better than your last site.
Anyway I think you need to fix the nav it has a few things messed up with it. when ever I rollover it its looks like it twitches its wierd.
also the text in the nav looks wierd you might want to fix that too.

your rollovers dont work in IE.

Edit oh nevermind I thought the black one was the new one sorry. Are you loading a new stylesheet for every single browser?? :o

if you are its really pointless to tell you the truth, you can make one stylesheet for all browsers.

yes, did make a new one for each browser, cuz the three browsers i have rendered it very diffrently.

Yeah you definetly shouldnt do that. I recomend you re-code it so it works with all browsers.

Uh.. it looks really really amatuerish... fine if your call yourself 1337..... but anyhow heres my critique:

1)What's with the flash header, no need for it to be in Flash? You afraid of <ul>'s and <li>'s?
2)Graphics are horrible, first the radio tower is cut off... and some of the round boxes are beveled, A no no. Some of the rounded boxes look pixelated
3)Boxes look overdone
4)Text is way too big, why is it bold?
5)Way too much spacing, the background bores me to death
6)Affilliates buttons are way too small compared to it's container
7)The Whites don't match up between the header and the content boxes.
8)Logo is a bunch of shapes in different colors? How does it relate to lightning? And what's with that header font...

Overall: Enh... I don't like frankly... First the typography sucks... Way too big, second too many bland and not matching colors. Finally, the graphics need touchup and better spacing, use a grid! For instance the header doesn't even line up with the content boxes!

P.S: Learn to use CSS, stop using <br /> to space things out?

Heey, wasnt it your community who hated kF?

Anyway, the text in the menu looks very anti-aliased.

But I guess its better then before ;)

no it was just a moderator from his community.

Anyway the text does look anti-aliased I sorta said that earlier but I never said it was anti-aliased I just said it looked wierd :lol:
