Yes, I have done what I have been promising myself I would do for a while, I have redesigned http://www.funkygamer.com.

It still retains a lot of the look and feel as before, but with a few noticable differences. Please take a look and tell me what you think.

Hey, Turbonutter, I just realised I don't have your e-mail address, and I can't remember the URL of your site, so if you are reading this, the font you want can be found here http://www.funkygamer.com/downloads/neuropol.zip

enjoy.

Like it!, another fan of the Neuropol font.. :) My only nitpick is to agree with Tyla on the background, its a bit hardcore and makes the text on top links hard to read. Otherwise, it rocks.

Actually it's title on all cases as ALT is being depricted. Title is also part of the Accessability mark-up becoming standard as of next year as text readers and other disabled devises will not read ALT. Also, some versions of IE6 and NS6 don't recognise ALT and use TITLE instead and vice versa for ALTS.

The common answer, use both on everything to ensure compatability and conformity.

I think I got it from http://www.blambot.com, nice place for *coughware* fonts. I'll send it to you next time I'm online at home.

Thanks to everybody for those comments, I'll try and sort everything out all that has been mentioned, including some things that I thought I had done, but not quite as thouroughly as I thought! Especially my CSS stuff, I thought it was an external style sheet.

I think I need to concentrate more! I stayed up most of the night working on it and got to a point where I was to tired to do anymore. Anyways, thanks again for the help, much appreciated ;)

Nice, I like it, although like everyone else there are one or two things I noticed.. (but hey, it's the small things that make stuff great!)

1- Think about making those buttons at the top rollovers, I don't know why but when I look at a website I like the idea of rollovers, gives you a bit more of an interactive feel (isn't really interactive, just feels it) and they look pretty cool too.

2- The text just below funkygamer.com, I'd put that in a different font, when you glance over it, it looks like it's links and stuff, so I'd consider canging the font to make it look a little different to the rest.

3- Links. Little thing, and you might not agree, but if your using CSS I think the links look coolest with no decoration until you put your mouse over them.

Other than those tiny points, it'ss a really nice, clean looking site. Well done, be proud.
