Oh Wayne,

I really didn't think you would go against Lime City, because you are not Moderator material. You were given an official warning, because you are the complete opposite of the word professional. I didn't think that you could be so biased and relate your personal experiences to meer graphics. This only proves my point that there isn't a place for you at Lime City. I would have been fine, if you would have given constructive critisism, however you haven't told us how we can improve - therefore your comment is not constructive.

Thanks for the kind comments, glad the majority like the website.

Thanks a lot,
Maneq

The site does look amazing, although it does look abit cluttered with text. It's nice to see you're back posting on the forum again.

What about your client?

I have spoken to Mike, who is making good, flowing progress on the client. He has been coding the client, and Jamie is currently coding the server. We are making effective progress coding wise, and web-site wise with the contact form, there will also be a new feature to look forward too on the staff page!

Thanks a lot,
Maneq

Arnt Mike and Jaime coding Soku too? IF so progress wont be made as quick as people who hire someone who works for just them.

I too, dislike the site, It looks so un-professional and badly done, but the MMOCC sounds promising.

Aha Witty, did you design it yo? It's just the buttons with the pencil arent very clear and the pencil looks like it's been resized. I do give you kudos because designing for a MMO is really hard especially when they give you no images to work with
-sigh-

I did design it babes, and I hate it That's why I've offered them a new, free one.

but imo, it's ok for now.

"Currently 0 Lime's Online"
Might want to change to "Currently 0 Limes Online"

How comes? It represents how many users are on the client (currently set to 0 as it is not in operation)

Maybe a solution will pop up in the future.

This is not so much criticism as it is a suggestion.

You'd definately benefit from ditching the tables (especially those nasty ImageReady ones) in favour of careful CSS and semantic HTML. Tables should really only ever be used for tabular data (and always used for tabular data while we're on the subject).

Using proper XHTML and CSS will benefit you by enhancing the site's accessability (with screen readers, etc), visibility on obscure browsers (mobiles, handheld devices, text-based browsers ie. lynx) and help your site render quickly and accurately on a wide range of browsers.

You don't even need to be a wiz at XHTML to code proper and valid sites, it can quite easily be done with a WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver if you make sure you style everything manually (i.e, add CSS properties into the CSS panel, instead of altering font sizes in the properties panel), and make sure the stylesheet is seperate and linked in.

When doing this, also consider that your site should be normally readable, sans the stylesheet. So make sure you put accurate alt tag descriptions for images and order DIVs in a way that it follows the way that would make for easier reading.

It sounds extreme, but if your site isn't accessable enough, you can actually be taken to court if you're providing a commercial service.

Personally think some things should be touched up, for example the navigation is the best I have seen (or that it could be) and the logo which looks like it follows a vector based design isnt that great;



Something more smooth like that would look nicer in my opinion (thats just an example i knocked up in about 5mins but I think you get the idea).
