FireStorms new site!

Wow, I am a moderator and I don't even know where one would post this
If you guys think of a better place, by all means move it or tell me and ill move it

FireStorm, the software group which I am part of has created a new website. Please take a look at what we are doing. There are alot of flaws we know, but we don't know of them all, so tell me here or email us, and we will take care of it.

We are also hiring new members, so if you think your up to snuff we will take a look at you and work something out

Also note the Mac Forum image in the bottom left corner of every page nice touch eh? If you guys also have any ideas on how to promote Mac Forums better, please tell us here!

[edit] I forgot the links
old site link
new site link

You can put me on your list of programmers if you would like.. I deal in PHP/MySQL. That is what I do professionally and am the programmer for a lot of design shops and small businesses.

The contrast is not very good on your site.. it's hard to see some of the writing.

Cheers!

What parts do you see the contrast issues?

The little FS and Mac graphics.. I have to get up close to my screen to figure out what they say I can see the 'M' though at the bottom

ah, those are suppose to be that way

ah ok

There I got rid of the crappy link bar all together. I still don't like somthing about the page though...

The link bar is pretty much essential. I would put it back. You are alienating people this way. I feel.

PM me if you want some hosting space, BTW

Hmm, ok, ill put that back in I just don't know how I want it put in.

Hey, I am actually starting to like my site
Thanks for the suggestion Emrys

Any reason why you are not linking your email address? If it's because of address harvesters.. they can still harvest regardless of having it linked or not.. Either have a javascript or php script or whatever language you are using to show it, or just create an image... I really need to work on my site also I just don't get paid to do my own site! *heh*

Nahh, I am not to worried about address harvesters. I just didn't like the look of it when it was linked.

ahh ok

With a lot of help from Emrys, FireStorm Creation now owns firestormcreation.com along with a boat load of webspace!

Now if anyone feels up to it, make mac-forums.com web images to be put up all over firestormcreation.com, so everyone who visits my site can easily find this site. I will accept images of any size (resizing may be done though )


example:

do you know any CSS? you could spruce up a few things, like the links for now.

i think the "version 4.0" isnt that important to most of your viewers. you might just wanna make it text at the bottom

-my $0.02

yeah, i know a little CSS.. but Im scared to use it

I would get rid of that 4.0 and I wish I wouldn't have put that in there, but im a tad lazy to go back into photoshop and cut it out

and incase any of you missed the new Url its http://www.firestormcreation.com

looks good

Over the past week (sites been open lil over 4 days) the traffic increased dramatically, then dropped off alot. Any ideas on how to keep traffic high?

you could always stoop to free lesbain porn...

but realistically, you need new software to get people to constatly visit

LOL, I wasn't asking you . Though its right, so get off your @** and start working you know I am! Other than cocky FireStorm members how can we improve traffic? (we don't promote good relationship with our members, their ideas are useless, tee hee )
