Critiques

[craigg.]

Hello there dear members of the website design forum, I would like your views and critiques on the following website design. I will listen to your replys, so please be detailed as possible as changes will be carried out if I know what you are talking about.

The reason I am asking you for your views is that my design is not to everyones taste, so I would like a vast amount of input so it is basically "user friendly".

Thank you,

- Craig.

Too complicated, do you know how hard that would be to code?

[Webhamster]

Well if you get the correct people, easy.


I like it, well done.

[craigg.]

It isn't too complex. Its easy as pie, I've been told that it is too basic before, so I dont know what standard you expect, but thank you for your input Brod, I really appreciate it.

I know about that, I may be changing the design again since I dont have the PSD format, Ill change it within a couple of days; I've known since Monday, and I havn't had time to change it.

I think its very good, but next time try an diff style you are always going pixely :P but it is excellent just that i dont like the parts on the banner

[Splinter]

Perfect really its not dull but yet not over the top and really colourful and eyecathching.!!

[craigg.]

Thanks sygon, I tried to something unique with the navigation on this design as I'm begining to get bored of just text links in a expandable box.

Also, I am dorry for pixelating it, But I am a pixel artist, so its quite naturall to do so.

Thank you also Splinter (I've forgot your name), The design brief I got off the guy was;

Blue and/or green,
Easy to update (Ill be making a CMS)

And that was it, it was basically up to my imagination to come up with something unique in itself and something thats looks quite professional.

Thanks for the input guys,

- Craig.

I quite like it, its orgnal, somthing diffent, a breath of freash air. it aint just another one of the standard layouts the majorty of sites use, i cant realy say about useablty unless i saw a working copy, but it does look nice, esplay the top, the bottom content box parts reverts back to boring repeative overdone styles and doesnt seem as nice as the top part "/

[Sygon.]

It is really special thought I love how clean it is and if you dont mind I will be making an design like it.

Why are you being so immature 'MrCool' it's not 'cool'

And to Craigg.

The layout is really good I love the idea of the navigation it's totally unique and shouldn't be copied by anyone. How much would you actually be selling this to your Client for?

[craigg.]

I'm not sure, It all depends down to the client, and I will be changing it around once again. I cant help people copying the navigation style, because people always have to take little idea's off people to move further in their lives -cough- Bill Gates. I would think the finished product will determine how much the client is willing to pay for it.

Its not that unique ive seen it before "/ but its still very good.

[craigg.]

I haven't seen that navigation before, I seen a navigation where they had bars along the top of the banner, I thought I would put the bars on a 45 degree angle, straighten it off, going over the banner.

The best way to design is take what you like from designs and combine it to make one good piece of work.
