[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;22287436]Yeah null is right actually. If you're going to the lengths of fine tuning drop shadows to make your design stand out then you should be making sure they work everywhere so that your design stands out everywhere. Users have incredibly short attention spans. If I remember correctly you generally have about 7 seconds to capture someone before they move on. (This is based on a number of usability studies that I've seen in the past, although the number 7 might be slightly off, I know it's close)[/QUOTE]
It's an extra feature though. The <40% of the users still using IE (actually, 1% on my sites) may miss something, but it's not that bad.
I'm not even going to use the drop shadow anymore. :v:

No way am I visiting your website then. Forget it.

Design is a cohesive thing not a series of random "features"
How is my very WIP web design: [url]http://rewindstudios.com/portfolio/BlackAndWhite/[/url]
[QUOTE=jaybuz;22292296]How is my very WIP web design: [url]http://rewindstudios.com/portfolio/BlackAndWhite/[/url][/QUOTE]You showed me that one. Why does it change the color of all the menu items when you hover over one?
It's nice though :neckbeard:
It doesn't though

It helps you see the tabs when you are focusing on them otherwise they are hidden slightly to be out of the way.

Awesome, love b&w designs. However, you should find a flat RSS icon, the gradient-ed one looks horribly out of place there.

Yea, I agree. I'll have to try making one myself, otherwise I'll look around.

I have never ever ever tried to design a website before till a good friend of mine asked me if I could make his website look better (his was shit). What do you think?
The you tube box was really quick and dirty just to show how media would be on the site.I really regret making this on a 740x450 canvas now though.
The header is a bit crowded and ugly. Add padding to the links on the navigation bar.

Where'd my automerge go? :aaa:
@jaybuz, love it now :) Although, the fact the icons go to color, but the navigation doesn't confuses me slightly, although that's probably just me :S

but if I have them all equal, it might look weird being over the gap.

Yelp! I need fix this Firefox 2.0 bug
[IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/386727/Web-And-Graphics/BlackAndWhite-FF2.0-Bug.png[/IMG]
Any ideas?
Make the tabs a tiny bit wider then, that'd fix it right up.
Upload it somewhere so I can take a peek with firebug and I'll see if I spot anything that might cause that.
I'm trying to make a decent design... never done it before, so, any help?
Also, I know the color scheme isn't great, got any other good ones?

Why do you even need support for FF2? Barely anyone uses it...

Anyone who has upgraded to Firefox will not be using FF2.
Even my school doesn't use FF2, and 30% of their computers still have IE, and their 'tech team' still doesn't use linux servers for the network drives.
