i have been bust making a new design for my site. it is a blog, a show case for some of the work i have done (drawings/flash/other site designs), and a small messageboard.

i have two versions with a script that will send you to the correct page. a page that loads for ie users, and a page that loads for non-ie users.

if possible i would love some comments, feedback, or some tips on the site. (the non-ie version ) the ie version is bland, it looks similar, but it is very bland, just so that ie people can actually see what is going on.

thank you very much.

It's a nice looking site. I'd lose the shadowing on the text, though. Makes it vibrate to the eye.

Up the contrast around there too. It may just be my LCD, but the links are really hard to see.

thank you all.

Holigen - i darkened the links on some of the colors. much easier to see now.
Thorzdad - took out the shadow for the main text, kept for links.

Nice, just noticed the other colors. I like red, navy, and orange the best

very nice movement sitewide and the style sheets are great.

Did you teach yourself PHP or did you take classes?

thank you for the complement.
to tell you the truth there is not all that much php that i had to put together. i went and found out how to do includes and used those for the blogger posts.

all my code was html that i taught myself, and then i changed over to php so i could use the includes.
