Hi,

Developing a small website for a Finnish band called Fragile Reality.

The band is not very old and is about to head to Germany to record a single/album.

Their music is acoustic, with themes along the lines of love and friendship. The stlye of music is meant to be reflected in their name as 'fragile'.

The art on the first page is from the soon-to-be album cover.

They are also a young band, with 2 main members in it.

The site is:
www.fragilereality.com


The left colums will not change, main content is on the right.

What do you think? Any small ideas to improve anything?

Thanks =]

I think the splash page should be gone. Either have animation on it or take it away. It is just a nuisance and really adds nothing significant to the website. As for the actual design. What design?

To be honest your pages are extremely bare. The first thing I suggest is add the band members to a header, rather than the flower. It may seem cool, but to me this does not scream a bands site. Far from a bands site that I thought it was some sort of diary and that the photos to the left were just pictures from the diary.

Also, nothing seems to be defined. It is all free flow and the menu has nothing that stops it, no lines to keep it in place. Which part is the content? The left column or the big empty space? The text is also very small, I think it should be a bit bigger.

If the band likes it, then you are sorted. But I don't think I would consider that a bands site. Good luck. :)

The band is very chill-out, so they requested someing calm and simple looking.

The content is obviously the bigger section that currently looks quite empty as if you notice the other side never changes.. I am yet to be given content to put on it.

I didnt like the splash page myself, so i may ask if the band would like it removed.

The menu over flowing the div is a css problem, and i am not very JS-savvy so I cant fix that unless someone will help with re building it in javascript.

They are also an amateur band, so there is little-none photography I can use, else i would prefer to be playing with photos of the band which I could then use in a header as you suggested.. They have someone else doing the photo's and they wont send me the psd files to play with, so there is little I can do regarding the images...

Thanks for your input, the band seem to like it, if they become bigger, or get better images I would move it about a bit.

I did use div borders to seperate it but it looked worse. They wanted calm looking and white, and they didnt want it to look like 'any old band website' so that kinda left me few options to begin with :p
