Okay, dude, I like the fact that you've put in effort to do this and you want to improve but I kinda agree with the guy I previously quoted: your site looks terrible. Here's the thing; before people actually use your site, they have to first decide that they want to make use of your site and you know what most people's decisions are based on? Appearance! Your site may be the most functional site on the internet but if you pay little attention to the design, trust me, your site would go nowhere. You need to learn design aesthetics which, unfortunately, most Nigerian "developers" and "web designers" completely ignore. As I said, I like the fact that you chose to work on this but your site needs a redesign from ground up. |

Hi AfricaNigerian, nice work you have up there, for your first trial you didn't do quite so bad, i'm sure a lot of people have said this but you need to work on your colour scheme, stick to one shade of red, and use different variations of the same shade so it doesn't look funny. You could also try asking your friends if they think your colours look nice because its always good to have extra eyes on something "The <font> tag is not supported in HTML5. Use CSS instead. The <font> tag specifies the font face, font size, and color of text." lots of the tags you used aren't supported by html5, so i'll advice you to go through tutorials that adhere to html5 standards check out https://www.w3schools.com Furthermore Fonts are a very big issue in web design so please try to use good fonts check out [url]fonts.google.com[/url] for amazing free fonts, you can just use a cdn: by cdn i mean content delivery network and your site will look a lot better,
add this to the head tag and use this in css
Also instead of using <br/> to create new lines its better to set your css style as display: blockthis automatically makes it stay on a single line and any text or image after it has to start from the next line There are lots of things for you change but most important of all is to get familiar with bootstrap. https://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/ Check out the tutorial it helps you build simple, beautiful and responsive sites, so you wouldn't have to build the desktop version and mobile version separately. |

This is the first time i am seeing a dot cf domain name extension.. Stick with dot Coms. i must also commend you for your effort.. at 16 i feel you should still be within the learning curve.. at this point you need to be learning learning learning and not delve too quick into the market.. start with alot of small projects. see how it pans out.. create a forum for your school/uni .. learn from there. its better to fall from a short tree than an iroko tree cus you might not survive it. David in the bible had to conquer the lion n d bear b4 he faced goliath. Then he had a reason to beat his chest.. it takes 10000hrs to be a master at any field.. thats nothing less than 5yrs. putting in atleast five hours a day. unless you started programming since you where 11.. you are on the right path. Just keep learning at this point and dont loose focus on learning else you get burnt and give up easily.. Read Robert Greene - Mastery.. |

I completely agree with Fribery. I started coding at around 14yrs, but as at 16, I doubt if I could create something as impressive as this (with/without CMS). I see the makings of a great programmer at work here (some might be seeing css issues e.t.c but i see beyond that) |

OP, I really understand that you are starting out, that's why i wont butcher you. lets get straight to the point, call me Mr. Quack graphic Designer cause that's what i am now , the only thing i want to advice you on is your website colors. These are snapshots from some websites most of us know quite well, AND THEIR MAJOR COLOR PALETTES. On the facebook part, i intentionally didn't cut out the lady working out, bc i want to show you what i use facebook for if you would like to join the bandwagon What do you notice in common with their color usage?? 1 Like

Re: After 10days Of Coding With Html, Css And Javascript Forum4africa Is Ready by okwyee(m): 10:33pm On Sep 23, 2017 |
Now seriously, I want to help you. You can do yourself a favor and learn to use one or 2 colors and in a more subtle way. I doubt you have ever read about color theory or graphic design theory because basic knowledge of it should tell you that less is more. dont use 2 contrasting colors, unless you want it to explode in your face, learn to use color compliments (of course youll understand this more if you read about color theory) Learn to use white space well and alignment too. notice that those websites i showed you used mostly 1 color and white, thats what you should aim for. Learn to use color shades a rough example is the image attached to this post, the backgrounds are just shades of the same colors of the pics i attached to where i quote Daniel above with the same text colors, notice how it becomes more readable and easy on the eyes? Nice try though, keep it up, you'll get better at it. keep practicing. If you're still finding trouble selecting colors, after reading up on color theory, head to color.adobe.com to choose colors and learn more. Look at how other websites are designed for inspirations from them, I wont advice you get inspiration from nairaland.com tho The next project you'll do, if you come up with a color blunder like this one, i will personally treat your fu-c-k up cheers hope this helps
