My website

Post by dsackett »

So I'm new to CMSMS and I put together a new site in celebration to the download. It's a personal site for me to display my writing and offer web design to those who need it. I'm not amazing and all but I like the way it turned out. Let me know what you think.

PS: CMSMS is so helpful, it makes things nice and simple. One thing I have a question about though is the comments module. Could anyone help me make the large text area scaled down so it fits in my container nicely? Thanks in advance.

Nice layout. I find the coloured text on the dark grey background n your main content area is a bit difficult to read. Other than that, I think it's very well done.

Not bad for your first site! I would definitely add some more color though. You should probably try to differentiate the drop downs a little bit :)

Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into the colors. I agree with you a bit now that I pay more attention to it.

Nice first effort!! I like the burgundy and grey.
Maybe use a border on the menu on the second level, so that when the "grey" is over the content, it doesn't look floating.

Add the following to your default stylesheet

#comments textarea { height: 100px;
width:350px
}

Change the height/width.  hope this helps

Yeah man, I found it out. Thanks though. I changed some colors and all so it was easier to read, plus I added a border to the flyout menus so they didn't look blended to everything.
