It looks good, but I have a few suggestions. First off, like you already said make the border fit around the button area better. Also I would either move the button slightly to the right maybe, because it is so close to being lined up with that vertical stroke that it is creating some tension in the composition. Also the little black space near the top left is a little distracting. Either move those circles back a little to hide it or pull the circles out more to make the space bigger. Right now it just looks like a mistake. I like the clean graphicsimplicity of the piece.

As far as the coding for the buttion, I think an image map would work well. This allows you to use the whole image as just one image, but designate a shape on the page, that is hyperlinked.

This page explains it well: W3 Schools: Image Maps

Another way would be to slice the image up in 9 pieces and just make the centyer one linked, but this might not seem as proffessional as the images sometimes look weird when they load in pieces.

Hello, I was recently reading a bit about CSS and found it is straight forward to make a button disappear on the mouse hovering over it. But I'm not sure how this works with your coding. I could find the address of the web site that had a demonstration?

This has a clean and simple look. Overall, I would rate it highly, but I notice that some of the long rounded rectangles do not look quite right to me. The first, third, and fourth rounded rectangles from the right edge near the top, curve too soon as they go into the circle above. And the big one stretched horizontally near the bottom seems like it shouldn't protrude into the circle on the left at all.

The black space which Foolakadugie mentions doesn't detract from the piece for me, but that's a matter of personal taste, I think.

As for the HTML, image maps are definitely the way you want to go.

i have to agree looks like a good splash page and if you vector design just a bit more it will look even better.

the font - really doesnt work you need something very plain or slightly bubbly like the graphics. just try arial - i rekon that'll look great

Romford are you designing this in ps (photoshop) if you are then its not the html you need to worry about for the link but the images themselves smile.gif let me explain. Once you have your image ex. your splash page ready ..grab the slice tool and for your picture you will need to cut in into 5 parts so that the "button" is left in th middle by iteself then click file > save for web and u can save both images and html format. then open up the html page ps created for you and edit it for example by putting the image in the center of the page or making the background colour black and most importantly placing a hyperlink on the "part number 3" (which should be your button). I did this to all my splash pages and it also improves loading time for low end internet uses as it doesnt have to load an entire image on the page at once but does them in parts.

Good Luck

and she gives you a good image map tutorial...it's a little confusing, but it's pretty mcuh the best out there. just re read it over and over again and concentrate really hard on her graphics and stuff and you'll get it. image maps are really fun, and if it's taking you a long time, dont' worry it took me hours to figure it out. you'll get the hang of it after a while after you learn where everything on the picture is

You can always dull it down abit instead of scraping the whole thing because it doesnt hav to be exactly the splash page and maybe have the bg with a punk pic on low opacity and just the buttons on the home bar or maybe even just the header with snippets of the splash page, but if you are already set on doing a new work over im sure it will only get better....i only deal with gameing websites and i have about 6 or 8 currently active so i cant help u out with any punk dezine but i u put up all ur various ideas im sure we can vote on the best smile.gif

Good Luck

Yeh i like the F* the system theory too! But must agree with reaver on keeping the website to a complete flowing webpage. Although i was just messing about with using all the splash type baclgroung for the website and it is not really working. the reson its not working it becuase its TOO eyecatching and makes it hard to read anything on the page. This might mean i have to redesign the splash. sad.gif sad.gif

I have a few ideas for the redesign and am putting them together as i speak, later on this month i might put a pole with a coulple of designs and then go from there!

If any of you have a punk type web design idea could you please either post here or message me!

Thanks

Hahahah excellent theory clagnol F* the System..
But i think that you should stick to the same theme becos in any web design even tho u are targeting the punk audience u want to attract even more people to ur site and maybe if u are lucky convert them to punk smile.gif
So a smooth website can also be a punk website...you know the whole organised chaos deal ..

Good Luck

Most designers would advise you to keep a consistent theme. The colors and shapes make a better impression on the visitor if they are consistent.

That having been said, sometimes it's more fun to design lots of different things. And considering skateboarding's roots in the surfer and punk subcultures, it would be culturally appropriate to discard all the rules and do whatever the f* you want.
