waynew Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Brilliant. Should be a sticky in the Website Critique section. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/172102-eye-candy-matters/#findComment-907393 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 That was a pretty good slide show. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/172102-eye-candy-matters/#findComment-907486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zq29 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I get the feeling that it was used as part of a talk, as I didn't find it immediately obvious what the point of some of the slides were. Was ok though, some of it is common sense, some of it I didn't really agree with. Thanks for sharing.

nrg_alpha Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I agree with what the slides. Indeed, asthetics do matter. I have been to many sites only to walk away upon seeing crappy guis, layouts and cramped content for instance, or walked past a book on the shelf without even giving thought to picking it up because of an atrocious cover (kind of really lends to the expression "Don't judge a book by it's cover", doesn't it?). But we do just that.. judge on appreances on a daily basis. While not so much business related, how about Ms.butherface over there? Nice body. But her face? Yep, we (as a whole) make snap judgements on appearances, which I suppose costs us on two sides of the coin; we miss out on something potentially good (let's face it, not all good quality is packaged nicely - sadly, sometimes the inverse is true.. crap can actually look good on the surface), and businesses lose out in sales as a result. In any case, I echo jcomb and waynewex's opinions. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/172102-eye-candy-matters/#findComment-907651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
