A few critiques would be appreciated!

Hi guys,

 

I've re-lauched an old website of mine (go figure - it's called nethnet).  The site is an online reality game based on a few popular reality TV shows (Survivor, Big Brother, Amazing Race, etc.)

 

I've thrown together a few different themes for the layout/colors/etc, but I want to get some outside feedback before I continue developing the rest.  The link to the website is below:

 

http://www.nethnet.com

 

And yes, there are no links to the rest of the site yet.  I've been doing a lot of programming to get the games to work, but I wanted to solidify the theme of the site before actually making the members-only layout.  I was going for a sleek but simple look.

 

Please don't comment saying "links are broken" or "just 1 page?"  As I said, the only page visible to the public right now is this homepage.  I want to get some solid critiques on the layout/theme/feel of the site before making anything else accessible.

 

Thanks!

 

-Theo

It really seems...1995 ish to me. Its not really a "clean" layout and it started to hurt my eyes after a bit.

 

If you like that bold deal, I would perhaps make it apart of your logo or make it apart of a side menu (left or right) or the header, but having it blown up like that...I dunno something off putting about it.

Thanks for the reply.

 

What exactly about the layout makes it seem so outdated to you?  And could you elaborate on the whole 'hurt my eyes' bit?  I'm not exactly sure how to take that as constructive.

 

Keep the target audience in mind - this is an online game, geared towards the 13-20 age range.  The bold typeface was a deliberate choice because of that. 

 

As for side-menus and such, those will follow on the members pages.  The link provided is just for the landing page.  Once I fine tune that, I will develop the actual layout of the members content, which will undoubtedly contain a proper logo, navigation system, etc.  I basically just want a critique on the style and feel of this landing page to use as a springboard for the main content of the site.

 

Thanks again for your comment.
