[QUOTE=SCopE5000;33950332]Currently I'm working on the stuff you see on [URL="http://tranquilo.co.uk"]Tranquilo[/URL] which is a [URL="http://tranquilo.co.uk"]web studio[/URL] that I work for.

I'm project manager on [URL="http://luxuryabroad.com"]Luxury Abroad[/URL] which will provide [URL="http://luxuryabroad.com"]blue chip holidays[/URL] inexpensively.

The website is pretty much complete, making connections with retailers and agencies through 2012, aiming for a march release.

[URL="http://storthes.com"]Storthes[/URL] stems from an old clothing website I used to run called Dmnd, it is much more refined and the idea has advanced a long way since then. It's a big complex and extensive storefront and marketplace which has been in development for about 4 months.

We're shifting from the beta layout pictured their to a more up-to-date design, prior to pitching to investors and release, again we are aiming for a March-April release. There's a lot of stuff there and I can't wait to show you guys.

[URL="http://stepdub.com"]Stepdub[/URL] provides to the [URL="http://stepdub.com"]dubstep music[/URL] niche, and I currently have it [URL="https://flippa.com/2679989-stepdub-com-premium-domain-dubstep-music-website"]for sale on Flippa[/URL] so check that out if you've got bare money and want to help me out ;)

Selling it so I can put more money into my other projects and so I can dedicate more time to university this year.

And then there's my blog as well, [URL]http://geoffballington.com[/URL] which is pretty just an [URL="http://geoffballington.com"]internet development[/URL] blog about [URL="http://geoffballington.com"]web dev[/URL] and [URL="http://geoffballington.com"]3d models[/URL].

Space the social icons out more or change the hover labels, when you hover over them the labels overlap for a bit and it looks kind of bad. As he said more padding everywhere would do nicely too.

Finally have facebook, twitter and openid logins all working perfectly on fd_core :)

Would like some criticism about a portfolio design I've been working on.

And yes, about the guy above me - We're both working on a portfolio design for Jaml (if you noticed we use the same logo).

try making the body background a big lighter, there doesn't quite seem to be enough contrast between the #201f1f and the #1d181f, maybe try a #4b3454 ([IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/test90.png[/IMG]) or even #442053([IMG] http://filesmelt.com/dl/test221.png[/IMG]). Also your navigation bar, you can't have it the way it is (as a fixed div anchored to the page frame), this is because (as you probably know but just forgot about) different people have different resolution monitors and so when some guy comes along with 1280x1024 he gets this:
[IMG_THUMB]http://filesmelt.com/dl/mon_1280.png[/IMG_THUMB]
But then I come along with 1920x1080 and I get this:
[IMG_THUMB]http://filesmelt.com/dl/mon_1920.png[/IMG_THUMB]
(And yes those images were cropped and resized).

Simple fix would be to find this:

#floatMenu {
position: absolute;
top: 30%;
left: 70px;
width: 135px;
background-color: #1D181F;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
font-size: 11px;
border: 1px solid black;
border-image: initial;
}

and then change this...

left: 70px;

...into a percentage value like so...

left: 15%;

You will have to play with the percentage value to get it right but it will scale with screen resolutions then :D

sweet jesus I just saw how big this post is, I sure hope it helps! Best of luck and keep at it :D

[Epic Sandwich]

Seeing Wizard's post above where they used those little colour blocks ([IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/test90.png[/IMG]) gave me an idea, so I spent the last hour or so making a site where you can type in the hex of a colour in the address and it'll return a small image (you can specify width and height if you want). Pretty much like lorempixel but with solid colours rather than images.

For example, you could use [I][noparse][IMG]mydomain.com/FF723A[/IMG][/noparse][/I], or [I][noparse][IMG]mydomain.com/FF723A/100/200[/IMG][/noparse][/I] if you want to specify size. Would anyone use this if I hosted it?

[Vietnow]

I don't see how it would be useful when you have CSS.

[QUOTE=Vietnow;33964653]I don't see how it would be useful when you have CSS.[/QUOTE]

You wouldn't use it for displaying content on your site, that would be impractical. A use would be showing colours to people in a place where you don't have control of the css, such as the use that was used on this page.

Yeah I like that idea. It'd be useful for posting on forums/blogs where CSS might not be an option.

I don't do multiple initial designs, but I know people who have had good results from that since they haven't had to do much extra work to get them ready. Prevents you from wasting designs that could still have some money come from them.

[jmazouri]

Added etymology and synonyms to my vocab site. The dictionary.com thesaurus API is pretty fucked up. It randomly switches between csv and seperate xml nodes for each synonym, but they have a much less fucked up api for just synonyms for some reason.

Worked on the comment pages for stories and some front-end JS, this is becoming a frightening hybrid of reddit and HN. I chose textile as the markup language for user comments/submissions.

[mechanarchy]

Not really much of a web designer, I tend to prefer dealing more with code and such but I thought I'd try my hand at a design for my website. The logo was something I whipped together in a few minutes with GIMP, but I thought it looked pretty nice. I'm not sure if I'll stick with it - but it's certainly a decent placeholder for the moment. The images on the left are where some completed projects will go. That's inspired from [url]http://www.stabyourself.net[/url], Maurice and Murkrow's outfit.

At the moment it's a huge work-in-progress but I thought I'd let you see it and perhaps offer some comments as it stands.

It's got a few problems. Resizing it slowly and the content area falls below the navigation at random times, this also permanently happens after a certain resolution (1424px~ width).

Also try not to do things like this:

[QUOTE]div#myid[/QUOTE]

CSS is evaluated from right to left so what the browser is doing is this:

Checking for ID #myid and then checking if the element is a div.

By just using #myid it will eliminate the pointless div evaluation.

You should probably stick a min-width on it to stop the content from getting below the sidebar.

Also, I remember borrowing a subdomain off you once. Everyone I have ever known is on Facepunch, somewhere. Time for tinfoil hat.

Clockturn! :DD
I still have a copy of your ASCII-art city thing somewhere, and I have two screenshots of something I'm pretty sure was yours - Lume.

As for the min-width, I thought I'd covered that base by putting a min-width on the #page div. My testing hasn't been extensive, however - I've only really checked it in the firefox I'm running on Ubuntu.

I assume the content area positioning itself below the navigation is an issue of Chrome - I haven't noticed the issue in firefox, so further testing will obviously be needed.

Thanks for your tips in regards to the CSS - I've never really looked into how it analyses the order of things and hence I've had huge issues with it in the past. I'll be sure to keep that in mind :)

[Overv]

I just published my first Chrome Web Store extension. It shows you the original comment when you hover over a @username link on YouTube like this:

[img]http://i.imgur.com/rv8p8.png[/img]

I know YouTube comments don't deserve to be read, but I think there are quite some people out there who will find this useful. You can find it in the store [url=https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mlpjnngojiindjocipnibpkndkdgenmj]here[/url].

I must say going from a userscript to a web store extension isn't the easiest thing to figure out. There's a lot of documentation out there that manages to teach you absolutely nothing with hundreds of words.

[Hacksore]

Fantastic work Overv, but is there a userscript version of this for people without chome?
