aQ Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Hello out there! I want critique on this page. Simple, yes, that's what I wanted it to be. I am kind of minimalistic, and don't like big fancy überphotoshopped websites. (By the way, all graphics on my site is done in Gimp.) Thank you, I hope you like it. -- aQ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ober Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Looks great... but if this is just a skin for a blog someone else created... I'm not all that impressed. If you built this from the ground up, then I'd be impressed. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-302740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aQ Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 I've made it all myself, I have used a blog-script though, but that is just for the back-end, not the layout / design. Thank you ober! More critique would be great, there is always something that I could have done better.

ober Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 You could use a "visited" link color... maybe hide the ad header if there are no ads... I'm not sure what else to say... colors are good, layout is blog-like... everything looks proportional... eh?

aQ Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 Haha, you're using an adblocker, eh? Well, there is a google-ad there, check the source. Thank you for critique, I'll have a look at my links. Edited: I've added a "visited-change". The menu-links will turn a darker color, and the blog-post links will turn darker, and get an underline. Looks better? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-302761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Its broken in IE6. http://www.burkesys.com/~sburke/phpfreaks/aq.jpg Your header could do with a title. Or, perhaps you could stick the post "Welcome to...." at the top of the blog, so it will be seen first. The right menu is a bit wide, but thats just been picky! Also, you might want to require people to register before they comment. Or install akismet or a captcha or something. Looks good though. -steve Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-303184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aQ Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 Oh, thank you, I'm running Linux, and haven't seen my site in IE. I'll check that out. Thank you for comments!

aQ Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 It now works pretty good in IE 6, not as in Firefox and Opera, but good enough. A lot of the IE6 users will start using IE7 soon anyway. I've also added a note at the top. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-303229 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss32 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 the colors... clash. your section headers on the right side also look misplaced, and need some rethinking on color/design. other than that, good job, it looks very well done.

moberemk Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 It's basic, but well done overall. Just one thing though: you might want to lighten up the section headers on the side a tad. As it is now, they seem too dark. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-306240 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aQ Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks guys! I'll have a look at it. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60833-blog-critique/#findComment-307062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
