open to all suggestions Im prolly gonna add some color on the sides

Sabre · 06-15-2005, 02:56 PM

The white in it, makes it look a bit bland IMO... also, i think you could spruce it up a little, make it look more modern, and flashier

def1 · 06-15-2005, 04:25 PM

heres a new version

Sites looks kinda ok to me, however a web design company should be able to come up with a better company site. Looking at this site I wouldn't buy anything one from you.

I like the color scheme, but I would improve the header and the navigation.

Goodluck

i think u will have to improve on the banner. make it look more professional. Also use better navigation buttons. A simple one will do actually. I like the font you use for the navigation, but wait, this is suppose to be your own small business website. I don't think it's suitable for a web design company's website. You should stick to common font used like Arial perhaps, unless you are making flash buttons, then you can be fancy abit. LOL

Just my 2-cents though.

Jon_ · 06-15-2005, 06:13 PM

Yep, I agree, and you still left the white in, I would def. think about changing that.. But over-all it's pretty good.

StudioWorks · 06-15-2005, 07:34 PM

It looks kinda good but I would love to see it as a web site and not as a screen capture.

I like the latest version the best.

The dark bar on the right makes it hard to read the dark text. make the text a lighter colour. The text seems too big for the main text . Also mabye put a title in the main text area.

deadhippo · 06-16-2005, 09:41 AM

i like the banner but thats it

the rest of it looks like an elementary school textbook...the print is too bick and it looks boring

i think you should stick with the blue get rid of the other colour
and add some more curves to your page

def1 · 06-16-2005, 10:24 AM

kpm547 · 06-16-2005, 10:48 AM

Getting better, but I still think the text size is too large.

GJ · 06-16-2005, 11:32 AM

Miles better than the first but the text on the banner is still a bit rubish!
Change it and then you would of improved from about 5/10 to about 8/10!

def1 · 06-16-2005, 12:30 PM

i will come back with more changes

Jon_ · 06-16-2005, 12:35 PM

well, its not working so well, the text needs to be padded to stay away from the pictures and other text, the bottom photo is stretched - replace it with correct size, it looks bad

the page took too long to load, you have too many images
the navigation can be made without images and they file size will be smaller it will load faster - check this site for ideas about navigation bars - http://css.maxdesign.com.au/index.htm
you should centre the layout and change th background color from white

thatll be a start, and come back to us, of course if you have some ideas yourself try them out and you can upload two or three versions and we can tell you parts we like

but remember, we are just giving our opinions and everybody has their own taste
if youre happy with something thats usually a good sign...good luck

def1 · 06-16-2005, 06:03 PM

i dont know what you mean about the bottom pic its the same as it was in the jpg???? how do i pad the text? and maybe you have a slow conection cause mine loads in like 2 seconds tops

by the way does anyone know a site that loads multiple files? that way i can upload all my slices faster

it looked elongated in the jpg too

if the text is in a table add padding to the table cell
if its in a dive add padding to the div

i have a high speed connection, 15mb but am in japann so that may be the problem
but i recommend you clear you cache and try again, as your images will be stored in the cache files so it will appear to load quickly
...also 2 seconds is not fast if you are being literal

unknowngiver · 06-16-2005, 06:37 PM

center the website....and in the background instead of just WHITE use this picture
