Paysite critique....
 

working on the design for http://www.jamiepeterson.com
I have come up with
http://www.hqbang.com/dm/jp/index.php

just the main page and tour page done for now.
still need to make a couple changes.

what do you think?

Looks pretty good.

hey bro, i like the style, looks good for the kind of site

just a few points:

.less bevel on the fonts would make 'em "more readable" and more pleasant to the eye

.also white on that very light blue makes the text kinda hard to read

.the top picture of the girl, maybe sharpen it a bit, and it looks it has another layer overlayed or something like that, kinda saturated and with too much contrast

:2 cents:

overall it looks quite good :thumbsup

Thanks for the advice :thumbsup
I have noticed the ehite text is hard to read, but really no other text color looks good/is readable with that background, so I'm going to be changing the bg colors pretty soon.

The bevel on the logo looks ok I think, but I think because the same effects we're applied to a smaller font, the problem arose with it being over-beveled, so I will be chnaging that soon :)

I'm pretty knew to 'optimizing' i.e. 'glamourizing' photos so that is the best I could come up with for that girl. All I use is noise > median and blurred overlays and soft lights, so I need to work on that. I changed the pic already though :)
Let me upload it to see what you think of it..

Thanks again
:thumbsup

what about
http://www.hqbang.com/dm/jp/images/top2.html
?

The picture on the left isn't all that flattering. She looked hotter on the first link. :2 cents:

Looks cool mate! :thumbsup

i agree with ya man

zdwebber,

check here bro: http://www.good-tutorials.com/tutori...list=1&view=50

:)

Thanks :)
Been there over and over again though, pretty much every site withen the first couple pages of the SERPS for "photoshop tutorials". :thumbsup
Appreciate the help though

very nice design, and loads quick - I like it!

:thumbsup

very nice...only thing i dont like is the face on the top left side :2 cents:

Looks nice and clean. My only comment would again, be the text legibility. Reduce the bevel, and consider scratching the script font.

Looks really nice, ZD. I will join the club who doesn't like that top left face pic though.

It's not the retouching, I think you just need to find a better pic of her to use in that spot .... she's a gorgeous girl, shouldn't be to difficult.

Besides that, underneath "take my free tour" on the right, you have "mebers" instead of "members".

Good work man.

:thumbsup

Really nice design... I like the colors, but they are right; that white text is hard to read... especially the non-bold letters...

Excellent overall though... :2 cents: :winkwink:

Good site... But instead of so many face shots you should showcase her other strong points... Show something to the ass lovers, the leg lovers, the boob lovers... Tempt them ALL and you'll be making good use of your real estate and see better conversions.
