Mom called.

She just wanted to say my website sucks. (Her words exactly)

Thanks.

EDIT: I guess I should say I graduated or something...

If I ever say that to my mother, the rest of my family will have me executed. It's like that famous "The Godfather" movie line goes......"Never go against the family."

Well your website does suck, it has zero content and repeated internal server errors. She was just being honest, ya know.

I'm not going to comment on the "zero content" thing you just mentioned, srry. But I will say something about those internal server errors: That could simply be a problem (shoddy service) coming from the web hosting company that Rimrook is using, so therefore it might not be his fault. Sometimes some of these online web hosts (especially the free ones) are not as good as they appear to be.

Yeah, but it's obviously an incomplete site, right?
Commented 15 years ago2009-09-27 22:06:06 UTC Comment #41118
You don't tell somebody an incomplete site sucks.

You tell them they need to add more stuff.

Duh.

@ srry: To answer you question, yes, it is very incomplete. But at the same time, ATDestroy is also right, it's just better to be diplomatic when it comes to people's personal sites or blogs for that matter.

Personally, when I do a site, either it be for myself or for some client of mine, I won't publish it online until it's at least 80% to 90% done. I will make sure that at the very least all primary and secondary pages are done. Any sub-directories under some of the secondary pages can sometimes wait to be added after the main site gets published online. Of course, that's just me, everybody has a different way of doing things.

True. But maprookie already existed before the overhaul. So it was already published, and now he's remodeling.

Sorry to hear that Rim, i've always had a good relationship with my parents and they've been supportive, not overly critical :(

If it means anything, i like the site despite the fact it's unfinished and bare.
It's a unique curved layout in the midst of all the liner and squarish sites in existence today.

Here's some good news. Now that my portfolio is polished off from graduation, I can now upload it to maprookie and finish it up.

I paused mostly because my resume, portfolio works, and demo reel were not completed. Now they are so development will likely continue in the time between finding a job and stuff.

And yes, I inherit my critical attitude from my mom.

That's what's happening when too much hugs occur.

[EDIT] Your site Rimrooks.
Commented 15 years ago2009-09-28 11:53:47 UTC Comment #41110
...thanks?
Commented 15 years ago2009-09-28 14:44:01 UTC Comment #41121
I meant it's good. It's.. your personality.

But nevermind that, I know your site for quite some time and I bookmarked for future, it would be cool if you do some Source modeling tutorials :)

"[EDIT] Your site RimROCKS!"

Dim looks.
Also, are those wires supposed to be flat shaded?
Commented 15 years ago2009-09-28 19:05:53 UTC Comment #41119
so you graduated? Congrats! (if you have in-fact graduated)

P

edit: i rather like your website btw, yet i am far from an authority on such things.. =)

Mmm reminds me of my mum who vists my blog to nose in on my business.

Sounds like my mom except she isn't so straightforward.
