Website Review and Suggestions

**RapidSubmit** · 09-28-2007, 10:08 PM

This is only one of my handful designs, and I am NOT a designer. I actually managed to slice/code the template myself as well. Just wanted to get some comments on the design.

I like the design of the site. Nice curves, with a great use of blue and white together. It would be nice if there would be something happen when you hover over the menu items. It makes it easier to see that something is happening when you're about to click on the link.

Looks nice and I like the color scheme. However, the page header doesn't load correctly in firefox. You might want to fix that since there are a ton of firefox users these days. Works fine in IE though

Also, your main banner that has the "The best Hosting..." is optimized in gif which causes the gradient banding on the globes. I'd choose to use jpeg for that one to maintain a smoother gradient.

I've noticed the same thing with opening this website in FF and IE. Despite of it the website looks quite nice. There is nothing annoying on it, the color scheme is good, however, it looks a little bit too plain. Some Flash elements in the navigation would make it more attractive for sure.

I think the header needs some more life in it and the buttons could also use a gradation i would study some web 2.0 style websites to see how they look

I like your colors, and looks professional. The only things I don't like is the weirdly curves on the "Order Now" box and the 120° shadow you have on the outside of the site.

I agree with Design Vault on not using gif. Since jpeg does not support transparency I have found the best quality with using .png

I like your colour scheme.

I think your pricing is outrageous and the company I use beats you by far but hey, you're not here to try and get customers and I'm only here to offer a friendly review.

Good luck.

You should really add something to your 'about us' page.
