Jesus... what's been going on in here?

Right, first of all, constructive comments about this guy's site...

1) Kill the frames or at least try to reduce it down to two. The top frame seems a little redundant.

2) The colour is a bit garish, not to screen/eye friendly.
3) To many "jazzy" scripts doing pointless things.
4) The main nav is a bit pointless, too OTT with the animations, though if this were a techy site, it would look better.

5)Kill the "Roman" font for Arial or something similar, though i do like the fact this site stretches really well.

As for the content, go for it. It makes a refreshing change for someone to be using the internet to get their message across, especially when it's something they are passionate about. The internet isn't about "corporations" but more of a platform for prople to spread their message globally.

I like the fact this is an Irish site, and I'm assuming this has something to do with the religous slant a bit as everyone knows that religion plays an important part in the lives of the Irish (brfore any of you go ape, I spent 4 years living in Ireland).

I can't beleive that some of you have slanted this guy because of his choice of content. He came her for constructive critisism on the "construction" of his site. Some of you in here have built some real crap in your times but none of you have had the "balls" to ask for critisism incase someone comes back with something you don't want to hear.

Some of you in here have been quoted saying "how nice we are" in this forum in previous threads, only to treat this guy really badly and probably scare him off for life.

Quotes:
>ROB>How about adding something interesting? That's always a good start.

He has, somethingof interest to him. so it may not have appealed to you, but he wasn't asking about the content.

>Whooo Style!>Jesus Loves You!! Everyone else thinks your a c*nt..

Why? Why comment like this? there is no need for it in a forum like this one.

Mistique made a comment about the use of the twin tower imagery, I think this has a ittle validation to it and can see her point a little. The imagery used here was out of context. If any of you read the press, this was ment to be a image of satan which eveybody knew was a dodgy touch up in photoshop.

I've never got p*ss*d before in this forum, but from the examples given in here (bar FG who I have a lot of respect for!) over this post, I'll see some of you in a different light from now on.

Next time someone comes in asking for feedback on the "construction and design" of their sight, give them what they have asked for and stop being narrow minded about what content it may contain other wise i will coming looking for you with my pointy stick!;-)

Rant over... off to find the coffee...

I *really* think he should tone down the retina-burning colours. Why is it that no one realises on their first website that you don't HAVE to use every single colour in the palette?

Maybe I got a little there, TN, but you get my point. OK. irishdans website aint too hot, but some people were making OTT comment on it's content, rather than anything constructive about look and feel.

Say what you like about me, but somebody had to stand up for the guy. No wonder he ain't come back since he made the post.

No, it wasn't racist, it was in the spirit of trying to cheer funkygamer up. Of course I didn't literally mean he was a terrorist, because that is insanity. In fact, I think you're a bit of an idiot to even suggest I was being racist, or that is a racist remark.

Garre calls people faggots all the time, that's a form of racism. Sammy L calles people "n*****s" all the time, in everyday life, is he a racist? No, of course not. It's a humourous comment, playing up to funkygamer and recent world events. I was also copying a sketch from 2DTV.
