Heyy,
I was experimenting with PHP+Mysql and made a news script. I decided I might as well use it and whipped up a really simple design for a personal page of mine.

The URL is : http://dlo.net/~rob
It is pretty simple and I expect a lot of negative critisim. Give it to me

Thanks.

1) For some reason I like the splash page, although it makes no sense at all. But hey, what else are you supposed to put on a personal site?

2) Move the text away from the edges.

3) It would be cool if you made the menu into some graphics, and then put a text menu at the bottom of the page.

4) The image behind the text on your logo is really pixelated and doesn't make any sense at all. The text is a little rough, but only a little bit.

5) Some more color would be nice.

Well first of all, I think that the splash page is great. Serves no point, but it's pretty funny.

Make the edges on the logo thingy curved. The logo is a little blurry.

I agree, add some more color and on the menu, reduce the height size because there's some empty space under the text.

Other than that, good!

Yea, your enter page is great.
The top image that says JRAP is a little blurry and some more color would do the job.

I don't like the Splash Page. I also don't think it's very funny. (Probably just me...)

I think it looks good. You don't have any color though. Add some colr and it will be better.

The rest looks greaT!

Lol -- I think it's great. Very funny.

So when I get inside, I think, COOL!

I like the news scripts (I use BLOGGER) -- they are neat. Yours is a nice set up, too.

One picky detail -- in Netscape your links are in default text.

Cool splash page and pretty funny but I spent ages adjusting my Monitor then stopping briefly to look around the room to see if I had gone colour blind and then looked back to the page and thought " Yup definatley needs some colour"!!!!! There is just a bit too much grey on that page. Remember personal home pages can be as colourful as you want.

I like the colors(or lack of them) I like to see a site that gets away from the traditional site layout. I think the logo kicks ass to, as does the splash page.
