Star Dedications
|
This site is basic at the moment but the main idea and theme is in place. It is currently created with html with a touch of php thrown it. also it has a MySQL database.
I want to move toward flash for the galaxy display but flash has issues such as:
a) lots of people don't like flash sites
b) browser settings and capabilities
c) I don't know how to do it
currently the galaxy is html but the intention is to create a better system and design as well as enabling the instant submission (instant submission is disabled until I figure out a way to stop spammers and idiots posting crap). Not sure how else I could create a galaxy display that's quick to load and compatible with most visitors' browsers. Any suggestions?
anyhoo...

You may want to put a solid background just behind the text, so that it is easier to read. The stars behind the white text make it a little difficult to see cleary, and the link at the bottom gets lost. It is an interesting idea, very nice

I like your site and mostly didn't have any difficulty reading the text. The exception was where you've got blue text on a black background, it's difficult to see until you hover your mouse pointer over it and it turns red. Otherwise I like the idea and may well dedicate stars for birthday/ Christmas gifts.

Thanks both for the feedback.
I will be changing all the pages (except the main galaxy) to a standard clean format. I think that having a starry background on every page is a little bit too much. I'm looking at using a flash page for the galaxy but it's a bit difficult to accomplish a fully automated and updatable system using flash.
thanks again for the kind feedback

You're welcome. I've got your site in my Bookmarks, so I'll be visiting it again. I'll look forward to seeing how it develops.
