I made this skin for a client. It's a sports theme. The client is a very member of Name Pros. His username is GFX^^

I want to get a little feedback on it. I'm a 3-4 month designer

Skin review

Hi. First of all, the template has nice colours and borders. Second, the banner is really nice. Third, the fonts are my favourite.

Good luck with your site!

It is decent but there are a lot of things that look off. I mean first off can you use all the logos legally? Secondly, the banner looks so, fake. Kobes one hand looks like it was edited or something. Is anyone else seeing this?

Here are other things I noticed:

The Bad
  • Default Favicon!
  • Looks like the gradient backgrounds have xoxo but I don't like the pattern.
  • The SD for the images should be redone to something more creative.
  • The dark blue on the site is too dark to go with the light blue.
  • The title on the banner looks intrusive, like it isn't in a good place.

The Good
  • You use IPB.
  • The site is quite clean.
  • The banner is very catchy (besides Koby) (I like the watermark items).
  • The NBA and MLB/type items at the bottom are very cool.

Try and make some kind of sports related new/not new images. That would look good.

Thanks for all the tips, I was trying to be more creative by putting the title/slogan somewhere else. Cause alot of people usually put it in the same areas.

I really don't do favicons because I just make the skins. That's a past client. They were very pleased with it. I'm not going to go back because that is all done already. I'll take your advice.

Well if you skin then you design. You shouldn't leave it up to the user to have to make a favicon. It is a simple 16x16 image that a user will be glad you add. I mean that might give you the edge against competitors...free favicon included. I know I use ff and HATE when sites do not have favicons. It drives me nutz and I tend not to become/stay a member. That one small thing is ridiculous, but amazing.
