A whole cooking site based on vBulletin

[Aunt Clara]

I am about to move on to another project, and even though I'd still like to do some minor modifications to my site I'd like to get some reviews from you nice people:

www.dominicancooking.com

Suggestions, critiques?

Looks good... except you have 6 broken images in your navbar "home" "dominican recipes" "articles & features" "about us" "forums" "store"

the "top" arrow at the bottom left doesnt seem to fit the rest of the sites style in my opinion.

other then those two things site looks very clean.. very eye pleasing.

*edit- why is your first cell ( the new post image cell ) in the forums so big? should make that smaller so your "topic" cell is larger/longer to fit more of the topic title on one line.

Can you see the images now?

Sorry I don't understand. Where and what again?

Yup, can see them now. Looks very nice.

And the thing about the cell width, I guess it was my computer acting up cause they are fine now.

Did you use Geek articles to do that?

Looks very nice!

[Aunt Clara]

I didn't know about the existence of Geek articles until after I had finished. If I had known I would have saved myself hours of working and would have just bought the darn thing.

Thanks for the praise, if somethign seems not to work, please let me know.

Few quick question and opinions...


Opinions - Put the bottom navlinks inside where you have the " bar and keep the cellpadding so the beige color still stays at the bottom.

Also at the bottom you dont have the corners arounded like you do at the top. Think it would look a little cleaner if you had them like the tops.

Maybe add the random header to where your current logo is. Or put a rotating banner/advertisement that you have at the very top inside that orange/reddish area... ( ???? )

Questions..
At the bottom you have "DominicanCooking.com and owner" why the "and owner" ??

Also you said you didnt use vbgeek. Did you make that mod yourself. Care to release it here ?

main page your "news and annoucements" "Featured Dominican Recipe" etc. is that with cmps or also part of what you coded?

I knew I saw the theme.
http://www.gardenpondforum.com/ another forum using it. But at least they didn't delete the theme credits: "vBulletin skin developed by: eXtremepixels"

If you're not able to mod your theme by yourself, then I don;t think you should delete the credits for those who did this

Anyway.. looks very good.

Love the tomato buttons you made.
