s0c0 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 This is only the second idea I've come up with for the site. I'm no pro, but I can most likely implement any good suggestions. Might be kind of slow since your going over my cable connection to get to this: http://71.195.254.171/sample.html The application side is in pre-beta and I'm only letting friends and co-workers find all the bugs for right now. Thanks. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39600-please-critique-this-design/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
tippy_102 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Thanks for thinking of us as friends It like it, but it's not centered on the page. Maybe it would have a little more "punch" if the background wasn't plain ol' baby blue.

cmgmyr Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 you should add some shadows to each section. Also your 3 middle sections should be the same height and your bottom section should be as wide as the 3 sections above it. Right now it looks like it's going to topple over Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39600-please-critique-this-design/#findComment-191946 Share on other sites More sharing options...

obsidian Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Very nice, clean design, but it doesn't validate at all. You've got to work on your markup. Also, IMHO, while I like the design, it doesn't really seem to fit the theme of the site. It looks like a tech site or CMS (which, I guess it is sort of one) rather than a music site. Some of that could change simply with the addition of some fitting images, but just my first impressions.

weknowtheworld Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Well my view point is you must have bgcolor as light grey. Else the looks are nice..

steviez Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I think that it looks very well made, is that the general layout for the whole site?

AXiSS Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Would look better if it was centered. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39600-please-critique-this-design/#findComment-193042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0c0 Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Umm... I wasn't expecting people to think this was a good layout cause I know I can do better. I will center it, add borders to the tables, and yes it is the "general" layout of the entire site for right now. Please tell me what I am doing wrong though. I am not a pro web designer so I know I am missing some things. One person mentioned I need better graphics to give users the feel of what the website is about. More stuff like that is helpful to me and thanks for all the great feedback.

AXiSS Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 The baby blue background should either be the same as the blue in your logo text, or a grey.

jcombs_31 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Very "Web 2.0" wow, great response!!! It is a little boring, and the light blue almost makes it depressing. You have an issue with the gap space on the bottom container being more than the others. Since none of the links work, I can't see how you plan to integrate the other pages. I think a 3 pixel border around each section with a different shade of blue would look nice. Maybe even a slight drop shadow. I would spice up those sign up buttons too. Make them look like buttons. I also think the bottom container should stretch to the full width of the other boxes and also center everything. You can also drop the tables.

esgarrouth19 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Result: Failed validation, 48 errors http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2F71.195.254.171%2Fsample.html Well, that is one thing you're doing wrong. Get that page validated! lol Also, as jcombs said, drop those tables. Switch over to divs and more CSS. The colors need a little work, but I'm sure you'll figure it out. A silver/grey background would do fine in my opinion, but it's up to you. Also, switch the textual menu over to an unordered list. Other than that, I like it. Have fun fixing it up!
