View Full Version : without ideas..
liQu1d 04-12-2003, 08:26 PM Hey everybody :-)
I just started making a small website for a clan
and i arrived the point, where all ideas seem to
fly away :annoyed:
it would be great if someone could give me some advices
or any help to improve this design...

quite nice to know but before you begin with more design you should think about where you want to put the content and the menu and then you can do the design :D:D

1.ok if you want it like this I would say first delete the black border :D.
2. I would use the spheres from the banner also in the border of the content and maybe in the buttons :D
I think I'll play a little bit with the pic and post then a pic of what I mean :D
-> my English suxxxxxx
edit: and here it is :D
maybe it's not like you wanted it to be but I hope it will inspire you :D :cool: :shrug:

Hmmm I'm not sure about the spheres °~° it's a site for a clan right?
Maybe u should create something more game like.

it ought to be a clanpage, but if would change the spheres, it would be the same problem, i have no idea how to create the navi and content...
I agree with Kamul, why do spheres have anything to do with a clan site? unless the clans name has some relation, "cold game?"
These are pretty similar to your "design"

Go look at other clan pages
Make a list of what is cool on these pages, with screenshots
Also make a list what is definitely not cool
Make a list of what your clan is about (name, motto, whatever) that would set it apart from others. What is important to you?
Now you have a shitload of items on these lists. If you have done this, and start playing around with these mindlessly gathered items, i guarantee you that you will find an idea pretty soon.
If you start thinking with every try 'is it cool already? will it work?' you will never get an idea because you cut through the creative process. Just take some items and start messing them around and after a while and some frustration something will come up. If not, take a break and start again.
Good luck
