Knocked up a design n build of the index page yesterday.

www.redboxonline.net/temp

What do you guys think?

Don't even look at the coding, its probably carp as i know nothing about css really.. Just the basics.

Would love to get into it but i'm strictly a print designer and have no time for it all.

Any way.. poke away!!
 
You got it Boss.. That text is pretty hard to read now i'm looking at it after a nights sleep.. Will go back to the boring font set that is arial, helvetica blah blah blah
 
Made all the text Verdana..

Thing is the boss doesnt know a single thing about webdesign. I might be me just moaning, but he wants the entire site up and finished by friday. Including samples of our work, every page sorted.. Online quote system etc..

Kinda does my head in..

Being from a print background he thinks a fairly decent website can be knocked up in 2 days... start to finish!

I mean i can knock up a carpy little site, but not a decent site that'll work well for the company.


END OF RANT...
 
yeah i know that. just oone of those things i didnt take into account. I've always told the big man 800x600 is a default size for webpages, but he wont have none of it.. wants it big!!

my web skills are not up to much, so i dont know of any way to have the web site scale.. unless i do a few different versions for different browser sizes..

Or... create it in flash
 
hahahahah... Thes offers are not correct.. I've just cut-n-paste bits form old offers and not thought about the finished product yet.... so there!!! ;)

Looks good, I like the cut off corners being carried through the design. I'd have the lighter red with the horiontal lines behind the main nav as well. And you've got Redboox in the title.


Lol i saw that... Redbooox.. made me chuckle.

Same as the time i accidently wrote the word... Sh!t instead of shot in a clients world war 2 mag!!

that made me laugh. no one even noticed it.. and still hasnt
 
I would love to do so but i don't know CSS enough. I know the basics, ie. text stuff, forms etc. but not enough to go build the site in CSS.

Unless someone can show me a really really brilliant site to help them i'm stuck with tables.
 
got a few more pages up if any ones interested in the progress of the site..

About us & Contact page.. Online qoute system is on there but needs amending to fit in with the site design..
