Redesign

[sec]

Ive just started redesigning the Dev Dreams design and was wondering if any of you had any thoughts on it.

All suggestions and ideas welcome...the sooner the better

Don't use any flash.

more color

I prefer a white background actually - I believe it'd freshen things up...

Hmm... in some of the other forums, you can edit your posts... Can one do it here too?

I like very very clean designs based on CSS with the same style as http://ibeginwithanidea.com/education.html and http://www.simplebits.com

Very clean, very stylish, very CSS based, very friendly-looking, very good.

ok, there will be no flash...so dont worry about that.

i will be adding more colour, thats the main reason for the redesign

about simplicity...i will keep it as simple and as stylish as possible

oh and has anyone got any colour suggestions?

Ok, ive put together a basic frame design meaning that its far from complete...

Tell me what you do and dont like.

The header graphics.... just isn't suitable for a webmaster's forum.... Also, the way you've set it up, the blue doesn't seem to fit in with the grey and white..

ye i think the header needs to be a bit calmer.

what are your suggestions to making it all 'fit'

[pfgannon]

nice design much better
but like stated above the banner doesnt fit

[tntcheats]

The header image should have either an image like http://www.alistapart.com has, or a solid color with a logo.

You should have an actual logo for DDreams. Like ibeginwithanidea.com has--not text, but a shape of some sort.

[pfgannon]

i agree wiht tnt on that one

[tntcheats]

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention: If it's not CSS-based, then I'll kick your arse.

ive already got a logo for dd, dont worry.

if anyone would like to create a header graphic feel free
