Feedback about my customization!

[ifocus]

It is a steep learning curve for a newbie but I fished this forum and came up a new page. Feel free to browse www.magphoto.ca (http://www.magphoto.ca) and provide some feedback. What is the next step, do you have any cool feature I should implement? How could I polish it some more?

Thanks for your support

Overall it looks very nice, but there's a few things you can clean...


1. Make the links in your navbar relative, so that the user will remain on the page they started (either your custom hostname, or your USER.smugmug.com). To do this, just change "http://ifocus.smugmug.com/gallery/3416441/" to "/gallery/3416441/". Repeat for all links in your navbar.

2. Many of your galleries are missing the banner header. It looks like some of this is caused because they are in sharegroups, but some others appear to have a different theme applied.

3. I would hide the "map this" button from your homepage. It would make it look cleaner.

.homepage .map_this {display:none;}

4. I would try to get rid of the smugmug green. Your blue color is very nice, but the smugmug green clashes a bit. Try this:

.title {color: white;}

There's still some other green stuff left, if you want to change this, ask and we'll figure it out.

Again, it looks very nice.

Thanks for your time. I made the suggested changes. It is good to have a fresh look. I am still looking into the banner issue.

Might be that you have display none and then below that you display it on
your homepage.

#my_banner {
display: none;
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(http://Ifocus.smugmug.com/photos/191297539-O.gif) no-repeat;
}
.homepage #my_banner {
display: block;
}

Thanks Allen, it works like a charm when I remove display: none. However, I was trying to display one banner on the welcome page, and another one on all the other pages. I followed Ivar's tutorial (http://dgrin.smugmug.com/gallery/1932865) but I am missing something. Since my welcome page is a duplicate of the homepage, it displays the banner both in the welcome page and in "Galleries",and none in the others. Any idea?

Cheers
