background / spice it up!

i’m working away at reworking my stock portfolio website. this is what i have so far: www. adamschoonover. com/temp/ I need to add some sort of gradiant background, or something to attract the eye towards the pictures. Anyone have any ideas how to take this way up a notch gives thanks! How about centering the complete thing and maybe a slight border about the container For you to center, mess considering the body style: perimeter: 0px auto; bigger: 100%; cushioning: 0px 0px 0px 0px; text-align: core; I would say no on the border, it would cause it to look smaller than it already will be. Centreing the layout can be good though. You are able to shorten the underlay bit to minicodepadding: 0; /minicode; it will the same issue.

the actual "design" of websites?

I am a pretty familiar with html and css. Also im getting really confident in this php/MySQL skills also. My only challenge is design. I browse this site alot and see some very amazing designs.

I want something that basically teaches the " net side" of design and style. Are a person talking appearance or functionality and system Well i’ll do the functionality and i realize like basic layout(where choices should go in addition to stuff).

Does Size Really Matter?

Good day, We are a newbie to web design. I made our page 1696 times 1438. You guys noticed it and said I were required to take it lower a notch. Now its 1280 x 800 that is popular I listen to. I just got done redesigning the idea in photoshop. While i preview it them doesnt fill your page. So What will i do to complete the page Should i make it 1920 wide and center the middle How do i make it so if the user opens the actual page big it will eventually stretch, but if the page is tiny the center will probably be what the user sees compared to the topo left from the page BTW A person guys really aided me last time frame thanks! 1280 x 800 is a popular monitor file size. Best size for most websites is 960 huge. Centering the web page is popular (look from this site for example of how to do that). PS – LOL the title of this thread. I wasn’t guaranteed whether I’d look for a spammer’s post inside or a respectable question. LOL. One easy way is as Moseley claimed, design 960px large and … Continue reading
