MonkeyIsland

Here's the design history.
have to tell this before I take all the credit for it ;)

When I wanted to design TUS, I had designed some other site and I was out of ideas.
So darkmaul asked BigBilly about the design. BigBilly made his design and send that to me. Which was this :



Unfortunately (Or fortunately ;)) his design didn't work in IE6 and had some problems for my codes. So I decided to code his design by that image.

I started with the clouds, when I was putting them in the sky, I thought what if those clouds swing! after making them swing I thought about moving them to right and left ...
and then all other things you see now came to my mind.

I know this design is somehow completely different from BigBilly's. But I gotta say If I had never seen his design, I would never come up with this.

So first of all, Thanks to BigBilly :)
Due to massive misunderstandings: MonkeyIsland refers to an island not a monkey. I would be a monkey, if my name was IslandMonkey meaning a monkey who is or lives on an island. MonkeyIsland is an island which is related to monkeys. Also there's been a legend around saying MonkeyIsland is a game. So please, think of me as an island or a game.

One thing is the header, it is a bit BIG! OK first im relieved the cheap option wasn't taken and used flash, but the header is like on a 1440x900 res screen taking up half the top page. Could you perhaps shrink it.

I know I've told MonkeyIsland, I may as well say here as well

MonkeyIsland

hello. some advice from myself! i didnt read all suggestions, maybe i repeat someone, then im sorry.

WELL:
the background texture change if u click 'Home' or 'Guides' or 'Schemes'.
that isnt serious imo and looks ugly.

i know that u can change the texture and fix it to 1 texture but it should be normal in official version of TuS.
p.s. sorry for my bad english.

greetings! Cry


MonkeyIsland

You mean texture of the pages shouldn't change by random? and it must be one?
