One of the faults of my Startree Photoshop project is the fact that the links should really be rollovers.
The site - which for a first attempts is good - should also be more compact. I also need to strive to remove the air of understandable amateurism of the pages.
Well today I had a brainwave that should remedy all these faults in one go.
I thought what would happen if, using the Page Properties Dreamweaver facility, I utilised the background image button and placed my Startree image on the page?
If my inkling was correct I would be able to apply text-containing tables, with rollover links, on top of the Startree image.
I had a mini experiment with this just now and guess what?
It's looking good pop pickers!
Now, credit where credit's due.
Deep in my subconsicious I remembered the Duffy website which I looked at while debating how to make my own.
Her site has rollover buttons on the top of the page with an image of Duffy below on the left hand side of the page. On the right hand side of the page is a YouTube size space.
It's a simple and impressive site which mixes Dreamweaver, Photoshop, film and sound and I think I've been partly inspired by it. I'd certainly love to produce something as polished as Duffy's domain soon.
It's a site that's well worth a look: http://www.iamduffy.com/index2.html
Thank you, Duffy and your delightful designers!
