Week 5 - Online website testing, starting the Game

During week five I did some more work on testing the site. I uploaded the site to the internet to allow some other people to test the site, and found some more errors so I fixed those. The site is here

I have also done some of the layout in Flash. I have pushed back the website a bit so that it will be completed at a later date and I will focus more on the game at this stage. I have also changed the due dates for the game as I didn't allow for the holidays originally. My internet is capped at the moment so I haven't been able to update my tasks as often.

I decided to make the site and game have a bit of a retro feel, in terms of colours and fonts etc.
I got some inspiration from some of the following;
Design Melt Down - Retro
Design Melt Down - Retro 2
Design Melt Down - Retro 3

I liked the idea of the following sites header and wanted something similar with the colours;
Good Widgets

I was originally also going to use the following tutorial to make the header, but it wasnt coming out how I wanted, but I still have used the colours.
Retro Text

Work done, week 5 9-15 Aug;
