Well I decided to create a website for my CPU collection. I have got the basic design done with a couple of test pages.

Before I decide to do the hard part and fill it with content I thought I would get your views here.

Heres the link http://aphdesigns.co.uk/cpu/

It's a good basic design. Will your pics be like the two already there, or are they just an example of the lalout? Naturally a higher resolution, and pics from above/below will be best for getting detail off each processor.

I'll be interested to see how it turns out when you have more content.

Thanks for the kind comments. The pictures there are for a layout example only. I shall probably link the small image to a larger res one which will open into a new window.

I have to find a bit of time now to catalogue my CPU's. Which is best for taking pictures of the CPU's for this type of image, digital camera or scanner?

Argh just looked at it in IE (Spit..Curse..Spawn of the Devil..) and there are scroll bars where there shouldn't be. Damn me for using the superior Firefox Laughing

The design is cool, but how are you going to handle menus?

Anyways, in Firefox it looks great! Smile

I thought it would be easier to drag up an old thread rather than start a new one.

Anyway, I decide to scrap the old design of the website and move onto a PHP gallery based system. That way I dont have to create thumbnails, it will do it all for me.

Have a look, I have borrowed a couple of images from this very site to test it out, let me know what you think of the new design.

Looks ok in IE now. I like the frontpage. It insn't as buisy as most chip pages. This gives it a nice artistic look.
