Hello everyone, and web guru's up in the house, i need honest review of my site, i have been building, as i need to correct some shits that be in it or aren't nice about it. And add more functionality

It's www.marknollis.com

Thanks

Donpuzo

1) I fill out the "sign up" module at the bottom of the page with "d" and "d (for password)".  I get a page that says the username/password doesn't exist, which is fine and fair but I am wondering why it is doing this on a white page, as opposed to a page that is similar to the preceding page.   In other words, there is global inconsistency, with respect to layout.

2) Seriously, you need to get rid of the "bookmark" alert box.  The days of using alert boxes to wow the customer are over 

All respect Yawa, will sort both out.

As for the signup, as in serverside validation, you mean, in a white page, na laziness cause am ni ohhh.

But i will sort it out, as it is very essential.

So, is the design work ok? and any cross browser conflicts?

Thanks.

The "Member Area" image is off the site.

Everything seems to be going down well until you get to the signup and that other animation on the left. IMHO they off the site too.

Sir, which page, and on the signup page, that stuff is intact here, what browser do u use?

I'm on about your homepage

Donpuzo:

what browser do u use?

All the serious browsers.

Global inconsistency you mean?

Afam:
Yeah, i meant to say "inconsistency". Thanks for catching this. I will correct that after this post

Donpozu:
I decided last year not to so much focus on layouts with respect to design as I came to the self-conclusion that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I have left that for the client to comment on. So now, I focus more on functionality which is at the core of a website, even if it is a 5-page website.

I have not taken a hard look at the site but I noticed the following
1. Your favicon does not look like anything I can see on your site. The colour of the icon is red while the site is green and white.
2. In the login area, you have "Forget Password" instead of Forgot Password
3. Am wondering why the Welcome Note i.e. Welcome to Marknollis Written on Friday, October 30, 2009:- 9:07 pm by (Mark Donpuzo) has the date and time it was written. Won't the welcome note always be there?
4. I could hardly read this "Not a member? Sign UP today for free." in the login form
5. The quick links take you out of your site. It should be. You should set target to blank for them so that they can open in a new tab or window. Don't ya think so?
6. Just like some have pointed out, I think there is colour riot in your font colours.

More later

@Yakitswizy Thanks, i have sorted out point 2 and 4, as for the imagicon, will sort it out asap, actually did guess so too, as at after a finished it, but was too busy on functionalities,

As for point 5, na lazines cause am, you can see, in the about, i used the target blank tag character to makee it open i a new tab or window, so i do know the character, but the issue was cause of i had other issues to face, than changing all the links that linked to other sites, but since i am just in the review stage, i will start adding that asap, cause by next week, will be much busy on Java Coding,

As for the color riot, i really can't figure a point in that.

@Dual, i still don't get your point, i checked it out, i thoght u meant it flew off my site to like nairaland, but saw it was intact like i wanted it, when i coded it, was already angry, that i am a dumb ass in css, but saw it was just like my thought when designing, Pls Yawa, can you pls check up on your browser, cause i use 3 browsers and none has such!!

@ Yawa, I appreciate your comment and also ur view point, it's true, layout lies with the beholder, but functionality is more than essential,as it is what the site is mean to be about, that was why i was battling with issues like validation, and autoresponders, and all other things that will make my site interactive and comply a biit with web 2.0 standard.

Thanks all!!! And a big thanks to dual assistance with some codes!!!
