I don't like the design, the effect you've used on the header and "logo" has been used on millions of other designs and i'm so sick of seeing it. Yeah, it lets you upload images but why would someone visit this site over one of the more established websites?

Some of the features are also totally pointless. Random image? What on earth is the point of that. Very average, doesn't really do anything new. 3/10.

Ok, there is the promote dimension, and about the random - many users like just to browse them

The site is too simple and easy to use ...
So good Luck

I actually like the site. I like the logo and love the layout, and your cool little glossy button. I just learned how to make those

I think that it's great that you don't have to have an account to upload a photo and yet have the option to. It's very fast, that's a plus. I think you have a great thing going but a lot of heavy competition out there. Now that all of the basics are there it would be cool to have the options like photobucket and others do with slides and shows.

Good work.

Great idea! I got some suggestions to make it nicer in the design point of view:

1. U need to customize the form with css make it more attractive. Define the tag for input etc. from the css style sheet. Use shades of blue mixed with grey.

2. Soften or remove the footer (up) shadow.

3. Don't use lines in the header and the background. I suggest to remove it from the background to get better definition.

4. Last suggestion change the "Community" font to helvetica.

From the development view it is great. Quick and easy upload.

If u decide of making the changes i would happy to review it again.

Best of luck!

John Efstathiou,
You seems to be a pretty much design expert i think i will check your advise

thanks alot !

Nice site. clean and simple i like it. My suggestion put the labels for text input boxes containing various links shown after the image upload either above text input box or below text input box

**metros** · 10-05-2007, 08:32 PM

dman_2007 - can it really help you think?

You can add a unique design for $150-$200 different from other free image hosts.

**John Efstathiou** · 10-06-2007, 08:05 PM

Don't pay for your design. Give it a try I am sure you will make something nice.

what do you mean by that.

**metros** · 10-11-2007, 05:25 AM

template?

**Galaxian** · 07:53 AM

I'd rate it 6/10

**metros** · 10-11-2007, 10:34 AM

galaxian - it's very low

any suggestions to make it better?

**Gx3 Grafix** · 10-11-2007, 11:22 AM

That's actually not that bad.
6.0 Average - see the rating guide

Like I said it's a good concept but you have to stand out from the competition and the competition is good.

Your logo banner could use some work. Getting rid of the artifacts would help make a cleaner looking image.

When you click on 'links' it takes you to a totally different layout, was this on purpose?

I think Template was saying that you should buy a unique 'template' for your site but I've never seen one that low that was 'unique'. They are expensive for good reason. That doesn't mean that you can't find a good one that is less expensive or even free and change it up to your liking.

Personally I don't see a problem with the layout. It just needs tweeks and adjustments here and there.

A graphic image or picture would look nice on the home page. I don't like blank white spaces but maybe that's more preference.

Good luck!

Gx3 Grafix, thanks for the info

competition is fine for me since i am good with promote/seo
and the links, yeah in purpose - part of the seo

)

I wish some one could tell me which kind of logo i should put in there

**Gx3 Grafix** · 10-12-2007, 08:59 AM

There's nothing wrong with the logo you have, it just needs a few adjustments to improve the 'quality'. What program did you use to make it?
