New Idea for Layout! Please rate it + rep for comments.

Do you ever have anything nice about anybody or their layouts etc?

Lets take your signature image for example:


Where do i start? - No design, slight gradient (not noticable) and horrible colours.

Anyway I like the layout its simple and I love simple but its got a nice colour scheme and I like the fading type shadow thingy on it

Good work (Linux Penguin WOO)

[+rep] if i can

That is noticeable..

Err.. Its an ad.. Find me an ad with a design like a layout?

You sir, have no taste in colours.

At least your sig actually looks cool. His, well it does not.

[Energizer]

I like it, and I agree that the nav buttons are too big.

Thanks

Edit: pressed enter to early..

Anyway, good try, try to stick to one colour palette with lighter colours and a base for the template

Let's face facts, it's very poor.

There's no real sense of `design` really, it's just 2 poorly executed bright red boxes and some white text.

The contrast between the black and red make my retina's go boom really.

OK I'm totally fine with the fact it isn't all that great, it was meant to be simple but if you dislike it fine, I will retry it and rethink the whole thing. I just try to make things a bit different but obviously allot of people dislike it. OK some people said its alright and thats fine and some people said its really bad and thats fine but I don't see much to construct on from your comment apart from to change the colours and you could maybe say it in a slightly nicer way? Its totally up to you and I'd like to thank you for pointing out it isn't all that great as I am currently redoing it.

Yay, someone with sence not to play uno stacko.

Totally agree there.

You seem to give out quite a bit of criticism, which I like but could you make it a little bit more constructive next time, I like you guys for sayings its bad as I want truthful comments but some times I think you might need to make the way you say these comments a little less "its rubbish and your rubbish, it horrible, I hate that and that..." and a little more "OK, it isn't that good nice try but next time do these things..".

However thank you for pointing out that it isn't that good and needs working on + rep to both of you.

I'd also like to thank everyone else for their comments, sorry it was bad I'll try to improve it when I redo it. I no my layouts are not amazing but I try to make them different, it doesn't always work as I only started doing quite a bit of designing in the last year and only started to improve in the last 6 months but with most of your comments I should improve + rep to all who replied.

[Sygon..]

Potential of your site is good.
crappy Remake below

You took the principal of 3 base colours, well done.

But you over used the shadow effect to make it look tacky

[Mr.OSH]

Thank you Sygon, I took your advice about the colours last time and I'll refrain from using the glow effect int he future and try to make it look much cleaner. + rep if I can, I'd just like to say your help is helping my designing improve and its much appreciated. Thank You.
