Critic This New Site Please
I just started work on this new site (Hosted On My Domain) for someone and would like to hear what you think about it.
I only charged the guy $150.00 but just the same, I think it looks pretty cool. What do you think? http://www.adultxplus.com/blackvelvet/index.html Please keep in mind that I just started to work on it. Regards NastyJack |

With respect, someone actually paid $150 for that?
If so, good for you! |

It's horrible. But then again, I'm drunk now. So it could be even worse when I wake up and I'm sober.

You have to keep in mind that I just started to work on it - it's by no means finish.
But just the same, what didn't you like about it? It's not very helpful if you just tell me that you don't like it - at least tell me what I should do to improve it. Regards NastyJack |

Have you looked at the site in a few browsers? Or, um, even one? Sorry, but it doesn't look good.

Okay, just looked at it with a screen resolution of 800x600 and it did look like shit - what resolution are you guys using and is anyone still using 800x600 and should I care about those that still do?
I'm using a resolution of 1024x768 and it looks fine on my end. So what resolution are you using? Regards NastyJack |

I don't like to just tell someone that something is bad without trying to help. So, here are some more specific points...
The marbled bits aren't consistent. Some of the bars don't connect/overlap properly. It just doesn't look clean. This is probably your biggest problem, at least in my browser. Your fonts (text, not logo) aren't consistent. Also, the white text on red looks poor. This would help. Your logo isn't easy to read, and is placed akwardly. Could use some work to be more ideal. No page should require such high resolution. No page should resize the window. Bad use of empty space and placement proportion.

There's loads to pick up on but I'm only gonna pick one. It uses frames *shudder* and makes a bad job of them too.
Personal opinion would be to totally scrap it and start again. I'm not saying that because it's your site. If anyone had designed that site I'd say the same. An edit just to add - If you really can't see what's wrong with it you shouldn't be charging anyone anything to build sites. |

it's a good thing I asked for you to take a look at it cause from my end it was looking okay. But needless to say I made a few changes so it should look a little better now.
I'm going to change the logo and work on it a little more before turning for the night but please have another look at it and once again let me know what else I should work on. I should also thank everyone for they're help so thanks gang! http://www.adultxplus.com/blackvelvet/index.html Regards NastyJack |

Jees!
Nastyjack you acctually found someone who paid 150$ for that? Another proof that you still try and fuck new guys in this industry over just like you did when you tried to make all the new guys sign up with your freehost ref code to make you 100$ per signup or whatever it was. Still a scam artist?

Well do your "Client" a faviour and send him to http://www.galleryguy.com/
So he can get a good design made up for all his hard earned money....if you knew what you where doing when it comes to design you would not even had to ask... So save this guy his 150$ and tell him you dont have the skill for designing sites.

The alignment of the text to the background is not set dynamically so the top links flow over a repeat of the background gra[hic at higher resolutions. You need to test your designs in various resolutions and learn to make them dynamically relevant. Big design 101 kinda thing. =]
Best of luck dude...

Well like I said, I just started to work on it and I even asked you to keep that in mind but I guess that was to much to ask from most of you guys.
I also checked out the site that MetaformX is selling for $200.00 http://www.everclearproductions.com/clients/open2/ and I didn't see anything special about it. I'm confident that by the time I'm finish working on http://www.adultxplus.com/blackvelvet/index.html that it's going to have allot more to offer then what he posted. But then again, it's like what Driven said, "you get what you paid for". While I'll post again in a few days and see what you think about it then - hope you'll have seen some improvements by them.

AWW wasn't the only place to ban you, yet you keep mentioning my site every chance you get ! if you miss us soooo much signup under a different username and try posting with a different attitude ! or else get over it already back to the topic at hand, i think you've been around long enough to know the design wasn't worth $150, having said that atleast you're trying to improve the design and give the webmaster his monies worth....for his sake i hope you achieve ! |
