This looks like a good idea - to make a graphical layout and eventually break the bits apart to make the graphics for the various CSS elements, right? I could imagine a few "habbo" icons in use throughout - example: email icon in that graphical style, and perhaps something else in the background of the green area (or are you representing transparent with that "lime" color?).

I took the approach of making the CSS layout first - for example: use of hover and horizontal CSS navigation menu, "box" divs, and styled rows, etc. I just used an initial set of graphics for the CSS to work; the graphics have evolved several times long after most of my CSS was finalized. Am I not making sense?

In any case, after making the initial style and graphics, I decided to incorporate a user-switchable control for selecting styles. I have four styles "Blue", "Green", "Simple" (no graphics), "Tan". If interested in how to code PHP and HTML for the styles select - PM me.

Check out the bbcode page on this Forum.
There is a new bbcode named "imgfit" which shrinks the image to fit in the viewer's Monitor. Please use it.
You might also check out the "hide" bbcode for the benefit of the dial-up users.
Please be considerate of others. Thanks.

Doesn't seems bad, but I'll suggest a darker background and some better and closer-to-themselves menu buttons. That way, with having some content on it, your site will look good. That's the same way I started doing my site. I made the template in photoshop, and than just used all the elements in Dreamweaver 8. It took me 5 days to completely change the design, and do every page individually, and I think it end up alright. I was working on it about 3 hours a day, maybe less. And I'll suggest some cool text for the gray ones in the tops' of the boxes(slots).
