It doesn't matter if you do all the error checking in the world, or if you have the most beautiful graphics, if your site or application design isn't usable, it's not going to do well. Get input and advice on usability and user interface issues here.
I'm redesigning my web development site to, hopefully, convince clients to hire me! Anyhow, I have a one-page mock-up I would like comments on before I port it to a WordPress theme. What do you guys think?
WAI Compliant (1 warning: I am not going to add tabindexes to every single link.)
Tested in Firefox 2.0.0.1, Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11, and Internet Explorer 6 version however.the.standalone.works.
A known bug with the site in IE is the off-color rounded corners. They match perfectly in Firefox. I tried copying and pasting the HTML color code directly from my image editing software, but IE still displays the four corner images off-color. Does anyone know why or what a possible solution may be?
I don't have an eye for color, so if anyone thinks a different shade, tint, hue, or whatever of some color would work better, suggest away.
TEAR IT APART!
I think it needs just a tad more imagery. Maybe design a logo. Other than that, it's simple, yet clean. I think it says good things as far as "I am a developer who cares about standards". Nice work! If you need any assistance with a logo, I'd probably have time to put something simple together.
Don't use 8 bit png's for the corner images... IE fails to render the colours properly (I can't believe how much i was looking forward to ie7, then I find out its png support is just as bad, if not worse than it's ever been).
You'll be forced to "downgrade" to gif images for the corners...
I'll mess around with it a little. I don't have any good vector apps right now because I just recently switched to ubuntu (well at least none that I know how to use). But I'll give it a go.
