Gaming Reviews Blog

[Basement]

I just started up Gamer Guru which is a blog where I review the latest games.

Whatcha' think?

That's a very nice design

The only thing I don't like is the logo, it's too pixely and old-school

 

[Basement]

Thanks for the feedback. I did a quickie logo myself by using a graffiti type font in photoshop. I'll be looking at getting one made by a logo designer soon enough though.

Rep added.

Any more feedback/constructive criticism?

you need something like graphics on the right column panel where when clicked will show some game previews aside from the reviews.

I like this alot! I agree with the other two.

I have also started a review site (for school) and if you would like to put your reviews on there, with advertising to your site, just PM me.

Lonely Designs: Sure, that'd be awesome Shane. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
I don't think I have you on my MSN, could you PM me your ID? I'll add you ASAP.

weblord: Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of design/coding knowledge. the current site is just based off a wordpress theme.

Rep added for the both of you

It's not bad, I like the design of it. Some things I don't like but that's in regards to it's coding and I'm a perfectionist so I just ignore that stuff for others designs lol. It does look really good though.

Nice I like the design of it, but the images load fast except the ones in the news updates, it has images posted on image shack and they load extremely slow, aswell as that theres no link in the navigation that tells you were you can read the reviews, I was looking for a WoW review and couldn't find any reviews at all well except for the ones on the front page

The reviews on the frontpage are the only ones on the blog, at least at the moment. I'm writing along with a friend of mine, so we're going slow right now. it isn't some scrapped content but it's handwritten 100 % original content.

I'll try switching the images to my own server later on.

I really like it. Did you write the content yourself? My only criticism is that its a little dark to read for a long period of time. Good job.

 

[leusmith]

I liked the design very much. Black is good for a gaming site.

And as Shaunkgb said, Reading the content gets tougher when a user spends more time on the page. But don't change the black background. Increase the font size of the post body and also change the kind of font used. Use sans-serif fonts for huge chunk of texts. What you are using now is a serif font.

Hey there, I love the grunge design and the colour scheme - it works really well.

I think the logo is pretty much fine, except get rid of the splotches, because they are pretty distracting. Perhaps swap it with your menu, so it'll be in the top left corner instead of the top right.

Also, I would add a screenshot to your GTA IV post, so it is consistent with the other postings.

Other than that, really good job - nice one!

Thanks a lot bobby and Stunt Penguin.
