Check out my brand new site!
After a lot of hold-up the website is finished. As some already might know it just is a database of all my mixes.
Feedback is very welcome! :)

looks nice! I'm not too much of a fan of the main shape you've chosen for the site, but it's nice and minimal.

nice, although the layout is a bit fucked in safari, it looks decent in firefox though (see pic). it looks far better than my html for dummies page, i'll give you that.
when you look in the music section and select a specific subsection you could have a row of smaller pics enabling you to to go to the other subsections.
the guestbook works. I promise not to spam it
oh and thanks for the linking :)

Thanks for the reply man.. I like it when people say what they think:)
The main shape was one of the things I was clearly about right away. The initial setup was to make it look like it was handmate, I scanned the drawings with the main shapes but that wasn't a success so it turned out this way.
All the photo's are by Chambre Noir, thanks again mate!

Haha, that looks very nice man :/ That screenshot is of Firefox? it might be because you are on a mac as it's functioning 100% on FF here...

no, it was safari, I guess I put that (see pic) at the wrong place. it's probably something wrong in safari's renderer, but it works fine on other sites.

The only one I didn't post on xltronic is Kitty Mallitti..

@vlari: No it's not safari his rendering engine. The reason why the site looks so bad is because of the way the website is structured. This website doesn't pass w3c, when the website does it should be showed correctly at every browser.

That's not entirely true either EnsconcE.. take for example my boc pages and you'll see it's: Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional! but still the layout is fucked in Internet Explorer just because Internet Explorer doesn't support lots of neat CSS-style features (e.g. position: fixed) which I've used.
So it's not only due to having valid code or not...

you can still sort it and get it to validate - there are loadsa workarounds for ie!

i know about the IE7 fix by dean edwards and that one should allow fixed positioning for IE (check here) but unfortunately it didn't work on my pages for some kind of reason... any suggestion is appreciated regarding this matter.

But that is a well known fact about microsoft Fredd-E ;). I also have to confess that this website is only designed for IE and FF, though a rewrite of the html part should solve that problem. If you stick with only html you will get far in a multi browser website.
It is very difficult to write one solution for every web browsers(imagine lynx ;) ), i think you should write browser specific solutions.

what? no.
browser specific solutions are the last exit. it's almost always possible to make the code both validating, correct (validating and correct code isn't always the same thing) and functional on all browsers.

its actually nothing to do with (x)html but rather the css, and yes it isnt difficult to test cross-browser/platform and make it look correct in all, if youre serious about it.

I think he means that now he doesn't have to browse the whole messageboard to search your good mixes and stuff. With your site it will be easier to get.

Alrighty Skink, I thought you refer to the content. :)
redrum: I'm using the same one xltronic (Phobiazero) uses and it's ace.
I might drop it though, because it only works 100% when there are more seeders and as I already suspected people delete the mix right after listening. I might use it again when I use up my datatraffic.

I like the shape and layout, but in my opinion it would've looked better with thinner lines and better antialiased curves, and perhaps a slightly darker bakground colour?

I tried thinner lines but then it was even more difficult to make it better antialiased.
"slightly darker bakground colour? " do you mean because of the text that is a difficult read at some parts, or the white outer background?

I knew someone would ask this eventually... No I don't mix any grimcore, the name Grim on Mbient is an anagram of my real name.

No i know, but when you write javascript for instance you will need to write browser specific solutions. Writing good html does not always result in an all-browser-wide, good displayed website. So browser specific is almost a must.
I agree that you need to sort out your html in a way that you do not need browser specific solutions.

Check it out Sclah! thanks for the suggestion, it looks far better this way although it's barely visible.
