This is my first time doing this, and I am new to HTML.

I have decided to make a website not from a template, but from scratch. It is a WIP, but it is pretty successful so far.

Here is the link: http://www.funelephant.comuf.com/

Please give feedback!

Oh, I thought you meant the OP :p

Good start. wink

If you aren't already, try reading up on some CSS tutorials like W3schools, it's a great resource for getting more into more design based programming. smile

Nice, it looks better than the first HTML site I've made anyway. tongue

But then, I only had a book back then, no internet. tongue

GameHutSoftware · 2012-06-30 01:57:21

And when you say started from scratch, you mean...

Nice!

Nice! Did anybody see the 404 page? smile Keep up the good work and CSS would be a good idea, maybe for the navigation menu!

slinger · 2012-06-30 03:24:36

Pretty good for a first site!

SciTecCf · 2012-06-30 03:31:25

O.O That's really good for a first!

Although, as Steve said, CSS can really improve the look of any webpage. It's easy to learn, too! I learned how to use it when I was 9.

Thanks guys!

Very nice, you seem to have a high potential to create an extremly awesome website!
although, looking at your source I notice that you haven't used tags like <head> <body> and <html>. It is a good habbit to always open and close tags, just in case you use a code that requires the body or head
eg:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<!--this is where head scripts would go
<body>
<h1> and body scripts would go here </h1>
<hr>
</head>
</body>
</html>

^^ This is a good habbit to get into!
also, no doubt you will be adding some javascript in so here:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--    this is here to 'hide' the script from non javascript web browsers
alert ("this is where ou put your script")
--!>
</script>

big_smile
I can help with HTML and Javascript if you need it!

What do you mean? I still want light blue

funelephant · 2012-06-30 10:42:37

I changed the BGColor for the homepage only. Do you guys like the new color or the old one more?

New one.

A little constructive (I hope) criticism: I would recommend keeping the background white, or a whiteish pattern, or black, and implementing the blue in a more subtle way... I can make an example, if you like.

I want to keep it blue, so can you post an example of the blue?

By the way, I made the players for the project the Flash player.
