Garethp Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hey, I just got a friend to design a website for me, and I've entered all the text for my website and it's ready to go, I just wanted to know what you guys though of it http://parkercodes.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatfishy Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm not really feeling the banner background and thought it could use a better one. That's just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Not a great deal to say really. It's quite simple, does it's job. As eatfishy said, the banner doesn't look particularly good though. There's a spelling mistake on the home page: ..HTML, Javasript and Ajax.. I'd expect to see a contact form from a web developer! There's also a couple of validation errors you should sort out.

ILMV Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 +1 The banner is pretty poor, it's so distracting from the content, I can barely read the title. you might want to consider displaying a larger thumbnail of the sites you have done... also consider linking it to a larger image using a lightbox (Google it).

Asgaroth Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I dont like the banner either, and Ill also agree with ILMV on the porfolio, actually I think that should be your main site focus, because when clients are looking for someone to hire the most telling part is what they have done before, so I relaly think you should include son fancy gallery for easy browsing throug your porfolio, that will really help to (what I think) is the purpose of the site.

svgmx5 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 not feeling the banner either. Design seems a little plain and like the others have pointed out, you could use lightbox or something to add interactivity to the portfolio part. Other than that its a pretty simple website, and it gets to the point --Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFilmGod Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Hey, I just got a friend to design a website for me, and I've entered all the text... I know you're just a php coder. But I just don't see how someone can program in php without grasping the rudiments of html/css. Especially when your website is extremely simple. What exactly is there so hard about the template that you can't code? That of in itself, screams unprofessionalism and lack of experience. I guess you get what you asked for. A cheap template that looks unprofessional and cheaply done. Learn how to do it and make it looking great. Or better yet, pay someone to do a really nice portfolio page for you.

ILMV Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 +1 TheFilmGod I constantly see websites in the critique forum that claim to offer web dev / design services with poor websites, and yes it does scream unprofessionalism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
