Hey all,

I'm offering 5 NP$ to the first 5 reviews of the site: www.iLookup.info

It's supposed to be a search interface - please don't review the portal as I don't have it done yet. However, the searches on the Dictionary, Encyclopedia, and web search are pretty much finished.

I'm working on adding a news, product, discussion boards, blogs, and image searches as well. Perhaps weather & maps if a zip code or city name is found as the query.

What do you think? ^_^ Firefox users will notice 100% compatability, Opera too perhaps, IE will notice a small problem with the green "execute" button ... it doesn't have any rollover effects. (It should light up and the mouse should turn to the hand pointer.)

Please post at LEAST 1 positive and 1 negative thing about the design/function for the NP$.

Thanks!
-Matt

I used IE the execute button was a bit tricky but thats minor details, can be adjusted. There are tags in the wikipedia that are not being converted they are jsut printed like <br> <small>.

I do like the color scheme and the quad seperation.

Good luck with the site.

positives- good domain(fits site), looks professional, concept is great

negatives- search the word dog. notice that the wikipedia results take up most of the page. i would make it so if the results are longer than x amount of lines, an expand links or something will expand to the full result.

First page. The portal layout looks ok but if the execute button can be rolled over, it will be nice.

Main site layout. Make the site layout centered. Less colored, put some colors and some graphics to brighten the site. Furthermore, the boxes are white and the background is gray. That's not good. Make the page shorter by making the font size smaller.

You probably need a header.

Proxycom: Thanks, I'll work on it. Not sure why it's displaying the tags when I have a strip_tags() function going...

ApocComputing: Yeah, I have it print the first full paragraph. Usually they're pretty short but I guess I need to make a limit.

JustNewbie: Sorry, but the layout IS centered...? What do you mean gray background? It's white... sorry but I can't send NP$ when I don't understand your review.

Thanks everyone - NEXT 3 REVIEWS CAN STILL GET NP$!

Very nice, the front page is well designed and the colours of the whole site work well. I like the domain, it fits the site well.

Although, i dont like the 'Execute' Button, it has no rollover so im not sure, its kind of like a 'Click And Hope'? No real problem, just a bit of cosmetics.

Also, the mirror effect on the front page, looks a bit too mirrored? Maybe cut it down by a few pixels.

Ta-ra.

I love it's simplicity of design, very innovative, but it is a bit confusing, I was sitting there just looking at the execute button before I realized I needed to type into the gray thing that was actually a textbox! Anyway, besides that, it's really good, and very useful, tell me when you have it all finished!

Thanks to both! ^_^ NP$ sent. The autofocus thing to the textbox is supposed to make it easy to search.

I dunno... I really like the mirror effect?

I'll be sure to update you when it's finished.

One more review gets 5 NP$ :)

Alright, I suppose...

The logo is pretty good, simple and effective, but below that is quite an awkward design. If one was not to click on the little white space, it is nearly impossible to know it's a search engine.

Because I have seen this site before, i knew there was a text feild there, but the first time I saw this, I thought it was a static page, and was unsure what to do. I would encourage you to add an auto-focus to the textbox so that users know they can imput text into those feilds.

The mirror effect - I don't like it. Maybe lower the opacity, or something.

Very unique idea though.

Dunno if you actually PAID ATTENTION... there IS an autofocus, also as I mentioned in my last reply.

Thanks though, NP$ sent. I'll work off of these suggestions ^_^

sbongo: Thanks but a bit late to get NP$. Rep + anyway ;)

I know you posted that there was (is) an autofocus, but I suppose it didn't work when I went into the page...

I mean the "search results", put it in center, not left. Difficult to read. By the way, set the background to white, not automatic, my theme make it looked gray.
