    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?

    Please keep in mind that I just started to work on it.

    Regards

      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.

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

                      I'm sorry to hear that because I'm using IE at screen resolution 1024x768 and it looks okay on my end.

                      Someone said that it changed the size of they're screen - is that what you mean?

                      Guess I better have a look at it with a lower resolution huh!

                      Thanks for the feedback.

                      Regards

                          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?

                              Nah, it's only like 40 or 50% of all surfers. Not worth the effort, really.

                                Why do you say that - is it because you have a low resolution and everything was fucked up or is it because you just don't like the format?

                                Like I just said, I had a look at it with a low resolution 800x600 and it was fucked up - guess I'll have to fix that.

                                        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.

                                          yeah i also had to look twice at your logo before i could tell what it said. maybe try making the red outline of the logo stand out a bit more

                                            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.
                                            Ignorance is never bliss.

                                                I only charged the guy $150.00 but just the same, I think it looks pretty cool. What do you think?

                                                Please keep in mind that I just started to work on it.

                                                    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!

                                                      Still not worth a $1.50 let alone $150.... bust out the photoshop book or search google for some tutorials... sorry to be so harsh but that is just not a good design....

                                                        Agreed, looks like a newbie just done his first page and that was the result. But you get what you pay for I guess

                                                        Try the New XMovies.com and make more $$$ with your Traffic

                                                            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?

                                                                                  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.
