Marcos - Munky · July 19, 2004, 12:02:47 PM

I redid all my site. Now it have a better look, and a more organized schematics section. Need to finish the photos section yet. Please tell me your opinions about it. If you guys have any suggestion, just tell me. And if you have a schematic and want to upload it in my site, just e-mail me. Here is the new link:

Just a slight display issue, easy to correct, with the frames... there's a big white space to the right for me.

1) Get the background color (hex code, IE #XXXXXX) for the logo image (not necessary, but if you can do it in some way IE photoshop I'd recommend it)
2) Create a new HTML file called top.html or whatever.html in your main directory (the same one as the one with index.html and logo.gif)
3) Type:

Code Select


<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR=#XXXXXX>
<CENTER>
<IMG SRC=logo.gif>
</CENTER>
</BODY>
</HTML>

4) If you don't know what the background color is, #000000 will look cool.
5) Open index.html, which should look like this:

Code Select


<html>
<head>
<title>Munky DIY</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="95,*" border=0 frameborder="0">
<frame src="logo.gif" scrolling=no marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" noresize>
<frame src="frames1.html" name="frame">
</frameset>
</html>

And change it to:

Code Select


<html>
<head>
<title>Munky DIY</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="95,*" border=0 frameborder="0">
<frame src="top.html" scrolling=no marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" noresize>
<frame src="frames1.html" name="frame">
</frameset>
</html>

That should make it look a tad more clean on higher resolutions. Just a picky little tiny thing from a picky designer. Looks excellent. You've always had one of the better collections.

Thanks a lot for your opinion, guys. Yeah, Colin, I saw the white space, and I wasn't get to correct it using the image as the top frame. Now I corrected it.

I can't seem to access the site. I keep getting "this site is temporarily unavailable". Mark F

Cool ... but I'd add something like NOSPAM somewhere in your email address, or otherwise make your contact email address invisible or munged for robots.

Marcos - Munky · July 19, 2004, 06:12:52 PM

Thanks for the suggestion, Mike. I will add something to the address.

Hey Marcos, that's a huge schem list.

What do you think of pesarating them into smaller categories?

My first try would be to keep the alphabetical order you already have, but just add a couple of spaces (<br> in html code) to separate each block.

The list is long -but interesting- enough to be hard to read as it is now.

happy to see a new /redesign look.

Marcos - Munky · July 19, 2004, 10:10:26 PM

Thanks. Looks better now?

One thing that I want, everybody that have a site about effects or a band, e-mail me the address, then I will put the link in my site.

keko · July 19, 2004, 10:25:35 PM

Cool. Much clearer now.

I have three sites going.

www.gazoo.cl --> my main band, site (and band) currently going through update (check www.gazoo.cl/nuevo for a sneak, non working preview)

www.apatia.cl/diy/ --> my diy attempt

www.apatia.cl --> a joke band. Imagine seven pseudo drunk guys onstage. Just 3 of us 'can' sing. Just two are musicians...you do the math

A tip to find what is the color on a web page or an image.

I use Hyper Color:
