flemingmike Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Hi all, i just did a redesign on a clients website. can i get some opinions? http://www.vgbetting.com thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Here are my thoughts: - Your site doesn't validate - I would find a way to integrate the very top menu 'Home Contact Us F.A.Q. Chat Rooms' into the main menu or side menu somewhere.. feels very out of place where it is. - I can't say I am a fan of header. The font used in it is slightly awkward to read..(speaking about the middle portion.. the 'Don't get schooled' part). Overall, your header feels more like a banner ad than anything else.. I would consider making one unified look that matches the rest of the page. - Text items within buttons, divs and whatnot feel slightly cramped. Perhaps adding some css padding or margins to give the elements more 'breathing room'. - The site's purpose seems 'hidden', in that there is no clear description of what the site is for. Perhaps a nicely written paragraph describing what it is all about? Since it is geared towards the gaming public, a little info wouldn't hurt. - In the footer, you suggest Firefox of IE 7. I would consider axing those and ensure your site works across all major up-to-date browsers instead. - The 'Powered by VGBetting.com' link within the footer is redundant, as it simply links to the home page. Instead, perhaps a simple '© 2008-2009 VGBetting.com' would suffice. - The location of account register and login is redundant.. You already have a login panel on the right hand side. As a result, I would axe the My Account section in the left menu system. - Contact is probably a link that should definitely be in the top menu (no, not the very very top menu [which I still think should be integrated elsewhere]). - ditch the tables you have in your layout.. they are not needed.

DarkSuperHero Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Not Bad! I agree that the top menu seems not to go with the rest of the site...make it a nice similar san-serif font and you will be ok i think...make the top bar a bit more stand out ish....like a gradient bg maybe ? Right hand menu, maybe making links contrast with background might make me not so lazy to try and find something i (a user) might be looking for... :-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
