ok done - I think.
Ex-janitor. Might pop in from time to time, otherwise you can grab all my information from http://jamesy.me.uk/
I've just tested the site on Safari, Firefox, Opera and Chrome across 2 computers (PC + Mac). The only one causing problems was Opera.. so if you have any other browsers i'd probably use that for the meantime.
I think you should reduce the amount of topics, a user should never have to scroll though a navigation bar. Why have things like sports and celebrities right at the end? Surely they'll among the most popular categories and should be moved to the beginning of the nav?
Things like gadgets and internet can be put under the technology topic for now, they can always be moved if they get popular.
If you have fewer topics, then the site won't look as empty when people select the individual topics.
I also don't like that you're using iframes. I like middle-clicking links on sites so I can open up pages in new tabs, ready for when I've finished reading the current page. With iframes, it just opens up the separate content page (http://www.teenuz.com/competitions/)
Oh, and the 'get started page'. Lost and confused? Here, turn your head awkwardly to the side and struggle to read these links. Not very user friendly. I think you should improve that and add a 'back' link onto the pages linked to from the 'get started page', to make it a bit more obvious how to get back to it.
Sorry if this comes across as too harsh, I just know that if it was the other way around, I would prefer to be told how my site needs improving
The design is nice and I like the idea of the site. It has a good chance of taking off if you can fix the issues and promote it well enough![]()
Okay, thank you for the advice. Highly appreciated!
I'll look into everything you think I should change and you should hopefully see most of it done by tomorrow. As for the iFrames, i've already received a lot of feedback about people having problems with it. That's something we'll be working on over the weekend![]()
A really good improvement over the last design, only change I would make would be to replace the ShareThis with a Retweet button: http://tweetmeme.com/about/retweet_button - I tried ShareThis for ages on a blog but it wasn't really driving any traffic back. Just a suggestion anyway.
Good luck with the new version!
Really good idea and it looks good too!
