| It's familiar, I'm sure there was a layout like yours on the old board. And it also seems a bit plain, perhaps a light background would help. But at least you can read the text, thats a plus. |

| It's ok, it has two of the worst colors I know though. Strong red and bright green, totally unmatching but since they're far away from eachother, it doesn't matter that much. The borders also has some white on the edges, bad cutting. Set matte to none or something. Edit: Oh yeah, centering text is THE worst thing ever in a post. It's a post, not a poem.

| Does it hurt your eyes? Yes, as Jiz said, try using colors that go together better and are more contrasting. Making your text white or light blue will go better with that gradient background. Or if you want the text red, make the background a lot darker. Is it OK but not really worth talking about? You put some effort into it so it's not that bad. Could still use some work though. Do you want to kill me? Sure, why not. What's your address?  (edited by jasukan on 03-19-04 04:08 PM) |

| Sorry, I guess I can't compare to left-aligned white text on a blank background with absolutely no border. | |||

Haha, did you bash my non-existing layout? Wow, nice move. I guess I should post that announcement again about people not being able to handle criticism  And no, it's too light green text, it blends in with the middle part of the layout and makes it somewhat hard to read. You should either go with a very light themed green or a very dark one, the one in the middle is the worst.. |

| There is no such thing. You say what you think about it. You shouldn't twist and bend it to make it not hurt the person. When it comes to art that is I see too many people posting some crap sig with a dbz image cut in and some completely unmatching background and people say it looks cool and they wish they could do something like that. It's so annoying. Constructive criticism is better though, but one can't keep that up in all of his comments to a certain piece of art. Besides, when one tries to match the 3 colors that just can't be matched no matter how you bend it, you have to say something |

| Hehe, guess you're right. I just don't want to hurt anyone's feelings or anything. I just feel they will have higher morale and be better motivated to fix the problem that way. I see what you mean though. |

the layout would be better with a bit more cellpadding, the text is too close to the border. the quality of the border looks hideous and low quality, and so does is the overall color choice you have for the text and background, it doesn't really match. i just recommend that you continue to mess with color combinations until you get the right one.  but the layout itself is pretty cool and basic.

| It's mostly the colors that need a change, the rest is already fine ... and the green right now is already better than the red on blue (awful) ... I'd say: - Make the text a little lighter (but not full 00FF00 green, maybe something like B0F0B0) - Change the border color a bit, maybe just a less contrasted green ... like what you have right now for the background - Darken the background as well, doesn't have to be very dark but a little will do |

Arr.. stop this.. although it's a bit plain and green and blue it's still a layout.. and well.. I don't have a layout  . (It's nice when you can see who wrote stuff from the way the text looks btw.. so having a unique layout is good). |

| I do agree that you have to be blunt about Art, otherwise people will think they are doing good when they really suck. But with this that really takes little skill, you could have replied like Acmlm did. "It's mostly the colors that need a change, the rest is already fine ... and the green right now is already better than the red on blue (awful)" That lets you know how bad it looks but it doesn't bash it. |

Okay, now that everybody's bashed the colors  I'll add my two cents.The colors are pretty much okay, just need a little bit of tweaking as far as lightness/darkness of some elements go. My criticism is more that the layout seems... "gradient heavy". The background's a gradient, the border's gradient.... and all together, to me it seems like a little too much gradient. I'd consider having say, the background not as a gradient, but as... a tiled texture, in either a very light, or very dark, green That way it breaks up the gradient, and still provides the eye with something more interesting than a plain flat color....My $0.02  |
