Cueburst - Reviews greatly appreciated.

[Hitch]

Hello,

I'v recently launched a new website called Cueburst, http://cueburst.com

I'm pretty happy on the design, but i'd really appreciate some comments from you guys.

Good, bad, be as harsh as you like. :hehe:

Thanks for reading,
Adrian

Well, although I like clean designs, there is something that it's bothering me in this one, and I could only describe that as absence of some element (but I don't know which element, unfortunatly). Maybe other background will do the trick, but you should try it. Anyway, add FB and Twitter buttons to the home page, and don't keep them only in your support page (make sidebar with Support header and put there FB and Twitter), that's all from me.

Small screenshots in small home page spoil fantastic site. Fast, neat, professional looking.

Looks good. Agree with Brazda that you should put a twitter and facebook icon on the homepage. I would probably also swap out the "?" picture and replace with something that portrays support. The "?" portrays more of an FAQ part of the site...

i wont comment on design... but you loading 485Kb of JS (16! files not counting GA and Google fonts) on a simple home page with 9.5Kb html..
take a look at your top right popup menu - maybe my firefox is buggy or i dont have enough ram but they are not supposed to open that slow and with such a suffering look.. i think its because of your tryin to implement simple menu/slider with 5-6 different jquery plugins - while all it requires maybe 1-2K of pure javascript..

..and 1.2Mb background png.. if i were to buy your product my first question about it would be - have you optimised it better than your website?

ps. sharethis is evil - it tracks everything, its slow and buggy, why not use olgood plain tweet/fb/etc lightweight buttons with no js involved beyond window.open i dont get it

of course i can be wrong on everything..

...i think i like your design (after killing wooden background)

I love the overall design, it looks professional and there is plenty of information. I do have an issue with the background image like 4pm though, it REALLY needs to be cut down as that will hit your load times massively (this is a SEO factor in google webmaster tools). Perhaps do some optimisation?

You might find it helpful to download an addon like page speed, which I use a firebug extension in firefox.
