Site Feedback

[JR]

As i am remaking my website i shall post things in this thread for critique. Here are 2 titles i have made so far using my favourite font in the poll i posted in the graphics forum. I am keeping to the colour scheme i used in my old site, but changing it and using metal also because i like using it at the moment (points to avatar :classic If i us this font i will probably go for a sharp style on my page to match it... what do you guys think?

Too trendwh**ish

I would go with #3, but make "design" black, or use #1 the way it is. Also, to avoid being trendwh**ish, it'd have to be a unique design using this style.

[JR]

yeah thats what i am trying to do but i am stuck on ideas for making it unique, i have tried adding various glows etc. but they don't look too good

[JR]

here is the same effect as #3 with the black text

[splufdaddy]

I was also talking about the whole design in general, if you use this logo, make the overall design and structure of your site unique.

[JR]

yes i will try and do that, i will avoid pixel fonts like the bubonic plague, i will see what other people think before i decide to use that logo

[JR]

I have done a quick banner/nav - i am fairly happy with it so far because it is readable this time but i am afraid it is too trendwhorish

what do you guys think?



thanks :classic:

Looks good!

right i sorted out my nav, i am going for tabs like hotmail or amazon. I will have to right a load of javascript to sort out my onclicks, mouseovers etc. because i am keeping it in 1 file and using a php include so you will probably see alot of me in the Javascript and other languages forum. The nav is not finished yet, i will add mouseovers and make it so only one tab is highlighted in black at a time.

Any feedback appreciated


edit: also i forgot to put any preloaders on so it will probably be slow
