Hi there, currently on designing this site here:
http://www.flump.net

Would like your views and how i can improve it.. i know most/all the links dont work, thats because i cant upload any of the cgi/perl/php scripts till i get the login for the new box heh.

Thanks

Craig :)

Looks good. The only thing I would do is change the colour of the .net and "leave it to us" parts to a darker colour. I get something of a "flare" effect against the background. (Possibly a dark red/maroon?)

Dumb question...what's a flump? :)

Well it all began when i was a lad... (just turned 18 now) no but when i was younger my favorite sweets were "flumps" they are fluffy marshmallow sweets.. Me mum got me a box for xmas plus i think its a good word for a company, maybe im wrong.. but its easyer to remember than the average company :)

Cheers for the feedback

Happy Holidays too

Hi,
On my 800x600 screen under the 'services' menu, 'Parking' and 'Forwarding' are jutting out to the right. It might not be important but it's mucking up your pucker design!!

Doesn't 'Flump' also mean to 'fail miserably' as my thesauraus quotes. (Food for thought!!):-)

If you own your own servers, it may be worth saying this on your first page.

Lastly, if UKREG find out that you've knicked their credit card graphics they won't appreciate it!!

Regards,
Robert Kerry

Same here. the color looks like it's run into the blue (like it's gotten wet). The blue menu headers could use some cleaning up too I think - they look a little bent out of shape to me.

You might want to stick one of those cogs behind your logo too. I like the nice plain font, but it needs something to make it a logo, not just a heading.

Your not allowed to tell people i stole the Credit card graphic! hehe *sush*

Looking into a dedicated server at the moment, currently we just resell :/ But <2months should have a new spankingly good server + a new shell box.

"Flump" is the marshmallo sweet, thats why its used heh, not cos its going to flop, well, lets hope not anyway.. only time will tell.
Got the name because it was easy to remember.. i think it is anyway :)

Im going to clean up the top header tonite i guess, just reinstalling all the software at the moment. Also going to add one of the "cogs" behind it, to see what it looks like.

ALso the Domain parking etc bit is suposed to jump out alittle bit, its like a sub heading..

Cheers
