Cattery Site

Post by dowoam »

Hi folks, here is the new design for our cattery site.

The template ist a free template from http://www.csstemplateheaven.com/.

Changes for CMSMS were done in some minutes, but the grafic changes last a little longer.

CMSMS Version is  1.3.1 mle

Very nice.

My only criticism would be that with such a large header graphic, you always have to scroll to access the menu and content. I'm not a big fan of scrolling, as I think it irritates people and makes them less likely to "look around" your site.

And if the browser (firefox) isn't wide enuf it just cuts off the left menu w/o a bottom scroll bar, I thought it had hidden stuff till I opened wider...

Hi mark,

you're right. I saw the Problem yesterday in the evening. My wife didn't like it eather.
The original Template from Dieter was with a 800px wrapper. I mate it widther to get a greater content field.
My Display in the office is very large, so sometimes I don't realize, that there is a Problem.

Think I have to switch back to the old one, but I will change the style a little, smaler header, stretchable and little more colors.


greeting

You could just make the first wrap wider to fit the menu...

well done

I agree with Nullig, scrolling is a no no

I have a question, How do you make the site occupy the full width of of the screen?  eg the CMS site does not


Can the width be set to auto adjust depending on the viewers screen size?

Hey what happened to the template you had, thought it was cool...

Yes the size can be width:94% or whatever and it will be that percentage of view screen...

Hi,

the template, wich is aktually online, is designed regarding to the wishes of my girlfriend. She doesn't like the Art one at all.
I will redesign that one and mybe give it to the template Site.

@Deblus
To fit a template to the sceen, you have to putt percentage instead of pixel into the with in css.
In this case wrapper is 100% with margin i think, the sitebar and content so as main div is also  given with %.
