hi,

i'm in the process of redesigning my site, and i would love to get some input on the design and the colours i used. it's a webcomic site, and it's not in English, hope that's ok. here is a picture of the site, since the design is still on a local installation:

Hi, I took a look at the picture of your site. The colors are kind of subtle. For a comic site I think I'd go with something more vivid, and brighter.

the colors are subtle, i know, but since the comic is somewhat morbid, i thought they would work well.

Very nice, I agree with Leslie with maybe the colors being a bit brighter, as the graphic stands now, not bad though. Here's one thing I would change, I love the dogs on the background, they show up real nice on the left side of the graphic, I would have them showing up same way on the right side.

hi, i like your combination. In the background you use the dog image is good but my point of view if you use some shadow with this color it looks pretty. But it all depends up on you dear.

Looks nice, would be careful about pushing the navigation so far down the page on the right hand side though as you want people to venture further into the site.

It's an okay design..

Maybe a bit to big, crunch it up.. to much space.

Looks good tho. Thumbs up..

You need to find a server first and see what programs it allows.. if you just want to practice use front page it is easy to learn.

The colour choice is all over the place and despite previous opinions, do not match. Too many tints and hues that don't sit well next to eachother. I like the saturated blue/red of the logo area, and the stack of rectangular thumbnails on the lower left, that's about it.

Loose the dog shape in the background and use a saturated colour for the background, that should offset the tints used in the content areas.

There are still big websites using textured backgrounds which seem to be very successful. Matan811 mentioned it's a morbid comic site and thought the colors would work well and set the mood, which could be a unique idea, something different.

Standards for designing websites are fine, but I see a lot of websites using something different, shake things up a bit!

I just had a look at your site image. The colour needs improving--it's bland for a comic site and the top image is too small for the space provided. Might as well make the images on the right side evenly placed on the space provided to balance with the left side infos.

I think the navigation is too far down the page. You have space to work with so you might want to consider moving the buttons up and shifting the main comic to the right.
