npsari Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hello there, I changed the design of my website, please tell me your first impression, if you like it or not And is it easy to understand? Here is the link: http://www.yavrim.com Thank you much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetanu Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Two things happened when I loaded the site...1) Hey, this is a good idea. 2) Um....whoa look at it all. I dunno WHY. XD I sort of felt like the colors, maybe detracted a little, and perhaps the gigantic ads that seemed to clutter the page for me. Also, I don't see how religion relates to advertising someone's site, and I feel that religion just makes everyone testy...so when I saw that in the profiles I was like, "Hmmm...what if there's a Sunni and a Shi'ite?" But that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I agree, too much going on - mainly due to the adverts. Why if you have an 'effective' advertising service would you use Google's adwords? Doesn't look good on your service if you see what I mean? I agree with Centanu about the colors, pale yellow and blue don't seem to wash well together. Also the fonts are little off putting; too much bold. Looking at the source it's really messy. The opening HTML tag isn't until line 98, with lots of DIVs and scripts above it. There's no DOCTYPE. Obviously it doesn't validate. There's no compliance to it at all really. I think it could be made a lot better with some wiser layout decisions and color choice, and by re-doing the (X)HTML.

JonnoTheDev Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Sorry. Ive got to say that this is the worst HTML I have ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetanu Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I ought to start looking at page source when I critique a site. When I looked at that (just now) I was like :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npsari Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Thank you friends, I came to realize that... As more silly & crowded a site looks, as more people will register! However, I am trying to make my website easy to use and understand anyway. Ohh, to be honest, I dont care much about that validation service from w3.org. Is that wrong? Because when I type famous sites like ebay.com or Google.com, I still get loads of errors there In fact, my website gives me less errors compared to them famous sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Asking a community of web developers & designers? Yes. In some circumstances, maybe not. However Facebook doesn't exactly need to create the most search-engine friendly, accessible website. And Google.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npsari Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Yes, you are right MrAdam, I know what you mean, because the other sites are already famous, so no need to spend time on fixing. Got you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetanu Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Another thing, the forums were cluttered beyond belief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npsari Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Another thing, the forums were cluttered beyond belief. hmm, I feel that the forums are nice and tidy Where is the cluttered bit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Actually I agree with Centanu, the stats along the bottom aren't in-line which makes it hard to spot the information you're looking for, and with it being so compressed makes it look cluttered.

Cetanu Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 The box with the categorized breakdown of topics is good. BUT then you have all the boxes and the categories are meshed together in a concoction of deadliness. There is no division between subjects, you have all the info about a thread in a single line which makes it confusing, and having multiple images on both sides of a topic confuses me. Um what else... ...oh you've got odd topics, like the one titled "Do Me". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npsari Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 haha, 'Do me' wow, thanks for the info about the forums I will work to make it more clean I will also remove the bad topics Thank you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
