What do you say about my upcomming homepage?

[Dragooon]

Hello,

Recently I was working for a custom homepage for my forum.Currently it is in  a condition that I can show it a bit.
Demo link: http://www.gforumx.com/hpt/
Currently I have made a contest for the logo since it needs one.
It shows a introduction + 5 latest topics from Gallery + A navigation + Random pics from my gallery + Latest posts made.
Please tell me your opinion on how do you like it or how can I improve it.

Looks alright apart from the background.

@ H,

@ H,

Ya I'm not in love with the background too. It looks too bright maybe a new design perhaps? Also you should jazz up the navigation bar with images instead with a black or grey background.

[Dragooon]

Nice ideas.
Thanks for it.I will look for it and try to improve it.
But I.E. is lame.

I think the layout is decent, but the background has to go.

If you are going to use one background for the entire page I would stay away from gradients and light colors.

[Dragooon]

Yeah I am gonna change it but I got a better problem here
It doesent work in I.E. Any suggestions?

[Killer Possum]

It probably has something to do with this:

Code Select Expand

* html #bodyarea
{
height: 1%;
}

Remove #bodyarea

Wow it worked like half charm
It shows now but not properly.

Your HTML code has many errors.
Try "Tidy HTML"

Famous last words.

I would say if you start fixing all your CSS errors you will start seeing some improvements in terms of cross browser compatibility.

[Dragooon]

Lol nice ideas.
But what you mean by CSS errors?

Currently part of the homepage shows this:


Servers were down from 9 AM GMT - 2:30 PM GMT on 7th July 07
    [b]NOTE:Currently the server is restored and is running without any problems[/b] First of all I am very sorry for this long down time. Our servers were down for about 4:30 hours because of a Hard D...

Looks like bbc isn't being parsed correctly!

Lol nice ideas.
But what you mean by CSS errors?

I imagine the errors would be apparent if you checked with a css validator

[Dragooon]

Thanks for pointing it out H,
I'll see what all are errors out there.
