[QUOTE=swift and shift;33502673]use rails[/QUOTE] I hate Ruby's syntax. That's really the only thing keeping me from using it. I like my semicolons, curly brackets and dollar signs.

[QUOTE=DevBug;33499897]menu Critique? And any ideas on what I should do with the 'logo'?[/QUOTE] Wrong thread? It looks more like a game's menu than a website, at least to me.

Holla. So, been readin' that people don't like WHMCS storing passwords in plaintext all up in hizzere. That's cool, I feel ya, I don't either, but it's impossible for WHMCS to interface with it's various platforms otherwise. Just thought you should know if you didn't already. Because it's not just a "blame it on WHMCS" issue. The passwords aren't just to WHMCS, they're passwords that are used for anything that WHMCS talks to. Which means that if two different platforms need to use the same password, and in different mannerisms, you can't just use a salted pass 'n' hash or a plain hash. Unfortunately the platforms WHMCS talks to aren't very professionally done in a few cases. As a result, there's no hash to hash validation, just plaintext password checks and returns.

This is what I have so far, any think I should reconsider now before I get too into the design? Oh yeah and I know the first logo typography is placed slightly wrong, I just don't want to redo the photoshop to fix it, I will fix it when I do the css/html for it.

If anyone is willing to help me out with this, it'd be nice if you would add me on Steam.

Look for some further tutorials on divs if you struggle with them, they could do that layout relatively easily

Same goes for the SAM ROBERTS part. For the little green tip you could use an image in a div and position it absolutely.

Sit down and draw out what you want your site to look like, its the most important part. Figure out the spacing(and rough pixel spacing) on paper first. I have little doubt you have the coding ability to build your website, most people just start without a plan, which ends up being their downfall. Also, photoshop and gimp are really your friend. Don't spend too much time trying to make a logo look pretty using code... Just drop in an image instead created in photoshop/gimp instead and use hotspots if you need it to link.

[QUOTE=TerabyteS_;33509891]Why don't websites prevent this? I swear I've never seen this fixed by anybody[/QUOTE] Some might think of it as a feature rather than a "bug" as such. Can make large blocks of text easier to read when it's formatted oddly in a smaller box.
