Hi,

Not too far away from launching Unsigned.FM

This is still a few thinks to do to the site. Activate some links, add the store, a few more pages etc. But I think the design on the main site is finished.

Any comments (good or bad) or features people think could be an improvment?

Many Thanks

Rob :)

Well, i hate the javascript prompt that comes up when i try to access the website. Also, the website takes a while to load.

Other than that, the website is pretty nice. Good job.

I only put that javascript popup there to let people know that the website isnt officially launched yet and that it isnt finished.

I thought that if I didnt put that there then ppl might think that that is what the site will always be like and won't come back.

its only temporary

EDIT - Decided to take your advice and take down the popup. people probably dont read it anyway.

Anyone know how to get a nicer popup? thats silient?

Nice site, but why use flash? Almost everything you have done can be done in HTML, and the things that can't can be replaced by smaller flash objects. Search engines don't look for keywords in flash files, and some users still don't have flash. Personally, I disable flash to speed up browsing and cut down on annoyances. I had to re-enable flash to view this site.

I think it would be more work to add all the flash files into an html page than just to do it all in flash.
I think most people have flash installed nowadays.
Im not too bothered about search engines picking up keywords as it is advertisied locally as it is a North East (UK) website. Advertisied via MySpace (www.myspace.com/unsigned_fm) and at local gigs.

Loading time - I think it could help to be a bit faster but its not too bad at the mo. Once youve been on once it loads instantly after that anyway, unless there has been updates.

Thanks for your comments.

Anyone else please?

I like the idea of the site, and the design is nice too- the colours mostly work well. The flash on the menu items, and on the little animation (accompanying the audio) in the top right has been well done.

There are a few spelling mistakes:
Listen-
powerful > powerfull
Promotion-
appearance > apperance
Download-
month > moth
stripey > stripy
trolley > trolly
Gigs-
Photography > Photogaphy

The light grey bold font (eg bottom of the promotion page) looks quite blurry (on my Mac at least) so is hard to read, as is the italic font just below it.

Also, on the gigs page where the items increase in size and change colour as you hover over them- I do not like this at all, especially as the items on the right enlarge & move outside of the box- I would keep the text at the same size and in the same place when hovering at the very least.

I think the forum could do with a little work- the logo is grainy and the handwriting font is hard-to-read.

I've had another look today, and this seems to be a Mac colour issue as it looks fine on Firefox on my Windows machine- although it still might be something to consider changing- especially if your stats are showing any Mac OS users...

I can't say anything good about flash intro's.. who wants to waite a while for a site to load when they've never been there. I'm on high speed dsl and the site took about 15 sec. to load. that was the flash intro. the sound I said oh my gah not again. The font color I would change. I'm sorry I can't really say much for the site.
