^ That's what I'm coming up with for the next theSarcasm.com design.

I'm stuck as to how to display the links and the PWMT (People Worth My Time) list. Does anybody have any ideas?

[King Zarathu]

[This suggests that I'm looking for advice and help.]. .

[King Zarathu]

All I can say is that I like the clean design. Keep it that way.

Otherwise, the primary reason my webspace is a directory list of files is that I have no creativity whatsoever and couldn't think up a decent scheme to save my life. Thus, I have no suggestions for you.

You know, my creativity level is ****ing zero, too. Yesterday, I decided that I wasn't going to let my limitation to logic prevent me from kicking ass. So, I put that together.

Here's what I'm thinking of for the header:

[King Zarathu]

Decreased opacity on the reflection. Better/worse?

[vashti]

Why is that link all written in pig latin?

EDIT - the first one is better.

Hah! It's called the "Lorem Ipsum," which is just Latin stuff for web designers to use on their templates to fill up space. Otherwise, we'd just be writing a bunch of nonsensical bullshit. (Ironic? )

Yeah, what are the odds?

[Junket]

I like the second one better, the first one is almost confusing as the reflection is too bold, you want the attention on the actual title and not so much on it's relfection.

[King Zarathu]

Better?

[King Zarathu]

It's definitely easier to read, and a bit more subdued, which I prefer.

It's tough...I like your first one and this latest, but I think I'd vote for this last one because it's easier on the eyes.

Take a look at the current preview.

Anything immediate to change thus far?

The "leet" speak you may want to make it sharper becuase its really hard on the eyes and stands out a lot due to the blur and the lack of other colors. I like the clean basic look, its more of a balance thing than anything else.

It isn't "1337speak," it's mockery for those who use "lol," listen to Good Charlotte, bitch about how their life sucks, and cut themselves. It's me making fun of those assholes.


Still need to sharpen it?

[King Zarathu]

I'm so 1337 I'm 1473...that's right...I never show up on time 'cause 1473 > 1337.

h4x.

Hah! I used to say I was "leeb" because that's 1338, which is > 1337.

[King Zarathu]

hehe, yeah...those "words" begged ridicule. Good Lord how I tired of it; felt I was too old to be playing CS with all the jackasses spewing that stuff left & right.

Yep! And that's yet ANOTHER reason I love Quake 4. The players are actually mature human beings that are a lot of fun to play with.

I would say sharpen it some but more so that the blur doesn't touch each other as much. Maybe have a couple of pixels in between the blur.
