Fall 07 layout.

Took me a day or two to actually get all the nav lnks working. Still may add onmouseover images to the nav section.

Comments and criticism welcome.

For your first div I'd say you did a mighty fine job. Few things though:

A) Your music player is a bit big and requires the use of a scroll bar. I'd personally recommend a smaller player, especially if you're only going to have one song playing

B)Your first DIV reminds me a lot of my own. I wasn't too design savvy [Can't exactly say I am yet], and so I simply implemented HTML and CSS aspects into an image, which is a good beginner tactic imo. However, in this case, since it is a relatively large image, I'd recommend reducing the size so that there isn't so much negative space with nothing in it.

C)Last little thing I have to say is that you might want to consider removing the repeat from your code.
Right now you have --
CODE
body {background-color:transparent; background-image:url("http://img466.imageshack.us/img466/6882/fall083br8.gif"); background-repeat:repeat; background-position:center center; background-attachment:fixed; overflow:auto;}


Note where it says "background-repeat:repeat" Instead, what you might want to do is change it so that it reads

CODE
body {background-color:transparent; background-image:url("http://img466.imageshack.us/img466/6882/fall083br8.gif"); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:center center; background-attachment:fixed; overflow:auto;}


That way it does repeat on higher resolutions and makes it really pop. Note that if you do that you'll want to choose a nice background color that compliments your main image, as the myspace default background color is white.


So, those are my few words of advice. For a first shot you did splendidly! Can't wait to see what else you manage to do in the future!

it's a good attempt. i personally think it is too big and the image quality isn't great. I like the way the navigation is set up and i like the colors you used. If i were you i would try to make it look more organized and not so random. I would also make the content section a bit bigger.

good job for your first DIV thumbsup.gif

Whats your screen resolution? I set the page overflow to auto, for anyone that may use a 800x600, so you SHOULD be able to see a scroll bar and see the rets of the player. I use a 1024x768 and set it just a little bit bigger to where the overflow kicked in.
