Need some gallery criticism. - GoFuckYourself.com

Dirty F · 05-10-2002, 02:51 PM

Check this gallery

To be honest i dont know shit about galleries, its not my thing. But im about to buy some gallery spots for 30 days and i want to be sure my galleries are worth it.

So far im told:
To use another font (more readable)
To match the bg color with the promoted paysite one.

Anything else?

It's a nice gallery but you might not get many ctrs.

You don't have anything screaming at the surfer to 'CLICK HERE' OR 'JOIN' etc...other than the purple "check them out now" gif at the bottom.

Also the story text is difficult to read...almost illegible.

Instead of making a gif for that use text and then make it stand out with some color and link it...giving it some mouseover effects like making the text change color etc.

Good luck

Good points, thanks!

hmmm...... not sure about them fuckin' flowers man.....

a1ka1ine · 05-10-2002, 03:11 PM

also the pics are all over the place, it doesnt look very uniform, the font is unreadable, the roses make me sick, and your not gonna sell anything from it.

but then im a newbie and dont know shit, but hey....

oh, use a few text links, the guy that said use color rollovers in ur text knows his stuff, he should write a book and maybe open up a school dedicated to martial arts. or marital arts =/

arggh im so drunk

a1ka1ine · 05-10-2002, 03:11 PM

ps. holland rocks!

Tipsy · 05-10-2002, 03:15 PM

It's been said really. Drop the flowers, make the text readable and the text boxes don't really work. Like has been said there's no real incentive to click on anything other than the pics.
You don't get too many shots on a TGP gallery to get the surfer to click so screaming at them to do so is a good idea.

DarkJedi · 05-10-2002, 03:17 PM

dude admitt it, the gallery totally sucks goat balls - better start from scratch

never understood text scroll boxes on galleries.... there's only one thing i want the use to click on... that is the link to the sponsor... dont want to waste the surfers knee-jerk urge to click on a scroll box button....

Dirty F · 05-10-2002, 03:29 PM

Goddamnit!

Im confused

Dirty F · 05-10-2002, 03:34 PM

Maybe i should continue building some paysites instead of this tgp shit.

Mogul · 05-10-2002, 04:11 PM

For what it is worth,

I thought it was a gay gallery and clicked the back button.

Many of the top spots on the hun will give you an indication of what works as those guys are usually paying to be there as well as the bandwidth bill.

Let me get this straight.... you dont know shit about building galleries that make money but you're gonna buy some spots for them?? Why don't you spend some time learning how to convert galleries before you throw money down the drain? Or just give the money to some people here on GFY... I'm sure you can find some takers!

Dirty F · 05-10-2002, 06:53 PM

Altho i dont know shit about galleries i do know shit about how to spend my money. And if i wasnt sure i can get at least get equal on the profit i wouldnt do it.

Va2k · 05-10-2002, 06:58 PM

well its a pretty site It almsot takes the surffer from your graphics to your text I personaly would get rid of the scroll boxs place a banner with some hot text under it make it a flashing banner and make damn sure to say CLICK HERE you have to hold these surfers hands and guide them. also only use 12 graphics ie the thumbs and main pic and all ways go with ya gut. If you like the way it looks then DO NOT listen to what others may say about it. Stick with it and keep everything as it is try it on one site like the hun then you can look at your stats and see where you may want to change something... Just my opioion good luck

Va2k · 05-10-2002, 07:00 PM

I just relize something I think me and you talked today. if so that is kewl

just remember bat ya may not know YET how to do it but its really simple. For me the uglier the gallery and the chicks the more signups I get. That is me though

redshift · 05-10-2002, 07:02 PM

Don't quit your day job

jimmyf · 05-10-2002, 07:06 PM

Battuss, I think the page is nice or pretty...

But also like everyone has said..... I do not think your going to sell anything with it.....

But again I think the page looks very good... just not for a gallery's.

That page, I think would be good with big dick's (for women), Liz or maybe gay..... I don't like doing gay pages myself but use to do them.... when I was doing gallery's..... made very good money also.... on gay gallery's.......

I'd change the text,,,get rid of the text box's and leave the rest....
because if you don't....you'll never know..... Yip I'd leave the rose's... Try it..... after all one of the things thehun like's (if I remember correct is things that are Diff...)

Dirty F · 05-10-2002, 07:13 PM

va2k, ok...i might once again contact you tomorrow when im sober

Redshift, dont worry about it, i quit it LONG time ago.

Jimmy, thanks for the input.
