Re: Fw: [WSG] Call for Site Check

Thanks, Jay.  yeay, the text on the slide rollovers was a pretty
tough call - but in the end I decided on such low contrast text in
order to keep the photo the primary focus.  I'm not to worried
about it, since the text is secondary content.  

Also, the banner is actually a duplicate link to the home page.  (:

Thanks for the input on www.focusontheclouds.com! 

kvnmcwebn, I have added in a yellow link color...
FFCC00 stole the show, so I muted it with just a little blue to make it
blend in better.  

What do you all think about adding yellow as the primary link color?

Gunlaug, I have added a dark blue background, for visitors browsing the
site without images.  I really appreciate the comment - I would
have completely missed it otherwise.

Stephen, I tried a darker background in my comps, but
the blue is so dark already that the main site area gets lost, when a
darker background is added.

[WSG] Call for Site Check

2005-11-28 Thread Matt Harris
Just re-worked my photography site: www.focusontheclouds.com and wanted
to get your opinions.  I've strayed into new territory - opting
for a slightly-risky, dark background instead of sticking with a
classic white background.  I'm interested to hear if you think it
works...

Development has been mostly on the PC, so Mac users, let me know if you
run into any obvious problems. Everything should be working good in
Firefox and Opera - only thing that is missing in IE is the hover
effect for photo lists.

Looking forward to your input and thanks for your help!

Re: [**] [WSG] Know any standard's compliant WYSIWYG XHTML editors for a CMS integration?

2005-08-26 Thread Matt Harris
Scott,

Thanks for the link to xStandard.  However, I'm looking for a
solution which doesn't require any local machine software and cab allow
for multiple rich text areas on one page.  Does xstandard meet
those requirements?

Also, unfortunately I haven't recieved any CMS invitations.  Do you have a link to the list?

Thanks!

[WSG] Know any standard's compliant WYSIWYG XHTML editors for a CMS integration?

2005-08-26 Thread Matt Harris
I'm looking for a standard's compliant WYSIWYG XHTML editor to be
included in a custom-built CMS.  It needs to works with IE,
Firefox, and Safari.  It should run directly from the browser and
not require users to download and install any lcoal plug-ins.  

Has this been created yet?  Has anyone seen up-to-date reviews of the latest and greatest WYSIWYG editors?

Nicely done!  I have a quick question for you (or anyone)... what is the purpose of this code?
#content-ctr:after{	display:block;	visibility:hidden;	content:".";	clear:both;	height:0;	}/* \*/* html #content-ctr{height:1%}/* */

Thanks!
