krustie · 02-15-2005, 01:31 PM

Im looking for design feedback only please: www.mintjuice.com, thanks - dan.

Hey, I like your site except that it's too plain and kind or boring. What's the purpose of the website? Usually the purpose matches with the design of the site.

krustie · 02-16-2005, 12:55 AM

Purpose is to display games and make money

alegend · 02-16-2005, 05:36 PM

if you are displaying games, then you might wanna change things, maybe a new header for starters?

relaxzoolander · 02-16-2005, 11:18 PM

the sliding tab doesnt seem to act logically.
shouldnt it tell me where i am at.
actually....nothing tells me what section i am in.
the slider keeps going back to 'updates'.
the site 'design' feels like a blog.
...not a big 'blog' fan.

its neat and clean and simple on the 'plus' side.

keep going.

alegend · 02-16-2005, 11:31 PM

looks very much like a blog!

Jiblob · 02-17-2005, 02:52 AM

It looks Extremellyyyyyyyyy like blog software I have actually seen before, The design that It comes with

Mayur · 02-17-2005, 10:59 AM

Nice and simple layout. Looks great. The slding tab was an awesome idea but it slides way too fast.

Agreed, esp. for a gaming site. But, I do like those sliding tabs.

Best of luck,
Rob

alegend · 02-17-2005, 09:14 PM

the sliding tabs are kinda cool, I really haven't seen that many gaming sites with them.

mundi · 02-17-2005, 11:12 PM

i couldnt figure out what the site was for, but i got it now, i love the tabs, i played with them for like 5 minutes. anyway, i cant read the site, but if you are selling games, why not use a shopping cart. also, here is a site i found somewhere that offers awesome logos. if you choose one of their free templates, and have them customize it with your company name, it is $5USD, if you want them to make one for you from scratch, it is only $10

if you have photoshop, it would be easy to customize these yourself, just to add some spice!

krustie · 03-07-2005, 06:21 AM

First things first, it's not a damn game site, it's a blog! Secondly i only wanted 'design feedback'.

Thanks anyway

webgear · 03-07-2005, 06:25 AM

Hmm It's nice and clean!I like it...

GJ · 03-07-2005, 08:53 AM

It looks like a blog!!!!!!!

Petter · 03-07-2005, 09:47 AM

Nice colors, but a bit to simple. Don't like the way the layout is built that much but it's not to bad after all..

Chroma · 03-07-2005, 01:13 PM

I actually really like its simplicity. It may look like a blog, but I feel like when it has more direction content-wise that notion will dissipate. It's simple and attractive, now just give it some direction!

RaisinKane · 03-07-2005, 11:01 PM

can you darken the tan strip to match the color of the text on the right side? There are many different solutions, but I think the problem is the different shades of tan b/t the lettering, horizontal strip and the borders. Maybe just darken the text to match the border color and leave the horizontal strip.

Also, the texture in the header is either too much or not enough. It makes you squint b/c it creates a little bit of a blurred look. Maybe a slightly more visible texture would give some stability or a little less texture would not draw my eyes into the blur.

Everyone has their own flavor and I think yours works.

weblaunch · 03-13-2005, 02:25 AM

Nice menu effect, but i'd add a little more color to it.

tferrante · 03-14-2005, 06:40 PM

The functionality is good like the sliding tab however, I agree with a lot of the comments that the website is lacks content. If this site is about gaming I am surprised that there are no images.

SB_GEMINI · 03-15-2005, 01:55 AM

Nice simple design, loving the sliding tabs like everyone else here, but would say you need a bit of color added to make it stand out and some subtle imagery.

voxunity · 03-15-2005, 05:14 PM

It's not too bad.
