Yeah, it shows you have skill, but your site also lacks professionalism (pink hearts? Are you emo?). Just a tip.

You should design Zarathus website.

That's the problem - people like you who are NOT creative have a narrow mind as to what is "Professional"

In the land of design, there is no such thing as "Professional" look...period

As for Emo, no I am not - but I do have a big thing for sexy girls with piercings and tats

Hah! If a narrow mind consists of having enough intellect to state that whores with tattoos and clit-piercings is adverse to "professional," I'm completely fine with it.

HAhaha full of shit huh? You don't know anything, you can't design for shit, just continue doing whatever you do - making pointless replies to people's posts on forums - Don't try too hard man lol

Screen- it's a good start. I think everything you've got there is slick. Now you need to flesh it out- it's too sparse.

I'm sure your code looks as coherent as your sentence structure.

Code:

<!-- NO DOCTYPE 4 U LOL -->

<HtMl> <HEAd> <titLE> LOL</title>
	</head>

<bOdy bgcOloR =    "#fFfFff" > <P> <!-- LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL 	--> roFFlE COTPTER</p>
 </BOdY> </hTmL>
 
 <!-- KEKEKEKEKEK I USE TABLES INSTEAD OF CSS ROFL -->

True story:

In the game, the song is supposedly written by Julia Heartilly, a pianist who is the love interest of Laguna Loire. She has a conversation with Laguna which assumedly inspires her to write and perform this song.

Accompanied by his close friends Kiros Seagill and Ward Zabac, Laguna often visits a hotel lounge in Deling City in Galbadia where Julia performs piano and sings. Laguna always sits at a table around the corner facing Julia, shyly gazing her with much admiration, thus the lyrics:

"I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar"

One night after Laguna's usual visit and his failed attempts to initiate talks with Julia due to his intense shyness and nervousness, much to his surprise, Julia invited him to her hotel room where they had a pleasant conversation. Not until much later did they know that this was their last meet, as Laguna soon went on a mission to Esthar but probably got lost in Lunatic Pandora facility thanks to his usual clumsiness. This led to serious injury of his body that took half a year to recover, nursed by Raine and Ellone in a peaceful small village. Not knowing this, Julia broke her heart mistaking him for being killed in the mission. She eventually married General Caraway and gave birth to Rinoa Heartilly. Unwilling to disturb Julia's then assumed happy family, Laguna decided not to reappear in front of her. Julia later died in an automobile accident when Rinoa was 5 years old. Julia and Laguna's last encounter at the hotel probably inspired her the lyrics:

"My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know
That I had mine on you?"

Chronologically later in the game, the song becomes the reflection of the unfolding love story between the two protagonists, Squall Leonhart (heavily hinted but not stated outright as Laguna's son), and Rinoa Heartilly (Julia's daughter). The song is heard repeatedly throughout the game as various remixes though no lyrics are heard. Its full version can be heard during Squall's and Rinoa's lonely moment at the Ragnarok Airships.

That was stunning E.

Scr33n, GB is right, to the normal users eye it looks good but feels empty also not all that diverse.

Sparse - Hmm I didn't want it too busy but I agree - Santa Fe? Nice, loads of hot girls huh? lol

scr33n - I agree with Zarathu on that the site does not look professional. I understand your point on that you can not define what is professional in the graphic design world, but if I was looking for a graphic design person, I would pass you up even tho your work is not that bad. Becuae looking at your site at a glance looks like its a punk rock site or a site for 70's music or something. Not a site for a graphic designer.
