well, my DVD site is finally open... and it's only taken 3-4 years (from initial concept to graphic design to testing period to web design and finally to stocking). when you have a full time job, a wife and four kids, it takes longer to finish projects of this magnitude.

so here it is.
FullDVDReview.com
it is a site devoted to DVD and entertainment news.

this site has two selectable styles, SimpleSepia (which is a simple design which downloads quickly, and expands to screen size) and FullMoon (a sleeker style which takes a little longer to download, and is set to a fixed width. it also employs a very nice sliding menu, however on slower computer systems this menu is, well, slower).

there are well over a hundred hacks and template mods on the site, courtesy of the fine folks at vbulletin.org and vbulletintemplates.com. the postbit for the FullMoon style was built from scratch, literally scanning in the paper and paperclip. all graphics are original and were created by myself, with the exception of the mood smilies created by Darkshines, and the forum icons for the FullMoon style were created by iHCF.

the entire site is powered by vBulletin. there are over twenty off-forum pages, most of them courtesy of vBindex by NTLDR. this hack has been moddified quite a bit. the SimpleSepia style for these pages is the traditional 3 collumn arrangement, however the FullMoon is designed from scratch.
