Sorry man but those 2 are bloody awful designs - in fact there is no design to them! I can't imagine anyone would use those. Sorry to be so blunt but if you are going to show off some templates then at least put some effort into them.

Thanks for being honest, I was working on these when I was sick and I guess I was not thinking well at the time.. May be I will rework them or just delete them..

Whats "bloody awful designs" for one person is beautiful to another person
What does your sites look like I don't see your sites on your signature, Just was wondering what you thought was not "bloody awful designs".
I don't think that was being honest I think that was really rude saying it was "bloody awful designs" in a public forum.

I would leave them if anything, it's a base for someone else to tweak them.

True, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I can't imagine anyone thinking they are beautiful. I don't like being rude but when something is so bad it needs to be said - cruel to be kind. If you are going to tweak those you may as well start from the professional design as it has a better grounding.

I don't design templates but am a graphic designer. I don't put my directories in my sig because I don't wanna get spammed to death.

Sorry WendallB I'm sure you're a nice bloke and I hope you see where I was coming from, even if I was a bit straight to the point.

Hey, no problem here at all...I guess I don't need to mess with this kind of stuff when I am not feeling well or maybe take another look later when I felt better..

I certainly did not want to start a war of words here with other folks on the forum..

Make love no War

I'm Not a designer or a programmer but I do Port Styles (install Stargate Portal Code into styles) / Themes /templates for stargate Portal for phpBB and I have ported some ugly styles out there but one mans love is another mans hate.
enough said Keep up the good work or bad work (whom evers eyes you are speaking to )

It's true people have different tastes in design. Take my design at u-Hits.com... I've had comments ranging from the 'It's the best template I've seen, to 'it makes me want to chuck', so truely, it is down to individual preferences.

That said, constructive criticism is far better than just stating "they're bloody awful", which even if the orginal designers says is is ok, is in my opinion, a bit underhanded and not really something to be placed in an open forum.

With reference to the templates themselves, they're not to my taste, but I can tell you, there are many that are a LOT worse that are in common use across many sites.

I love that green template style was it a custom one or one that was picked up?
Were can I get it would love to change it to a Nice Blue (I Love blue and White)

It's custom built by me and absolutely would NOT work on any other phpLD install, as the one it's on is a very substantially modded version of phpLD 3.2.

Bruce.

Good effort wendllb your designs may have had a tough time with comments but at least you have had a go at something different and no dought learned something along the way. Your designs will only get better, Keep at it.

Good Try

Keep it nice

There not all that bad Wendall, like what was said (is in the eyes of the beholder) and gives they user something to work with if they like the design.

Like my site in my sig AnLD (template by Bruce), I have had mixed reviews on it.
I just love it, maybe kinda dark but that was what i was going for.

I have had people tell me it sucks and others ask if they can pay and use it <<--(no it is not for sale or use) as Bruce said on his u-hits template it is to modified to run on a regular script.

But keep up the work Wendall, you can only get better as i have been working on a few template designs based on the professional template and not as easy as a lot of people would think to make it look right.

Since when is the quality of a directory based on what it looks like? Anyone looked at dmoz.org lately? Looks like it did a decade ago.
