Website Review and Suggestions

**tatrasim** · 01-04-2011, 07:00 PM

I finished the site a while ago and have been slowly adding new avatars in the download section - create avatar (http://www.createavatar.org) . Now I need the ideas for improvement and general feedback.
I now have a few hundred users, however, people don't seem to comment or rate the avatars. What do you think can be done to improve the user interaction? How is the design? If it was your site, what would you change and why?

Any feedback is welcome, but looking forward for some criticism.

Thank you.

I really like the layout and color. Only thing I would fix is the front page. All I see this two white boxes on front page which is just white and doesn't load.

good site and good opinion for this website.

as for me, I could only see two white boxes beside each others.
after that there are some ads (or images with links that lead to other websites)
using firefox version 3.6

I was able to see the site ok, Obviously it isn't displaying right in other browsers. I use Firefox. I also like the colors and it is a fun site. I would however suggest using a darker background and a brighter font. It seems your target demographic would find the white background boring.

Thanks, yeah, two white boxes were adsense. For some reason it did not show any ads on index page, so I removed it from the main page. There are other menu options such as create avatar from photo and download avatar with more functionality there...

Yeah, I fixed it, removed the adsense that doesnt show ads for some reason on index page. I am redesigning it a bit more, I think I will remove huge ad boxes from content and just place them on the side...

Yeah, good suggestion. I fixed it and sit should be the same in all browsers now. I am thinking to try a new design on a new site, just so I can compare user interaction on 2 different designs.

pretty good design and layout

**ssalinks** · 01-13-2011, 11:22 AM

i liked the color but not the navigation bit.

**louis91** · 01-14-2011, 04:38 PM

generally good design although i think your logo could be a bit better and more relevant to avatar creation.

**LeoJames** · 01-17-2011, 08:52 AM

Site is good and looks like a professional website . keep it up .

Ok, thank you. I will try redesigning the logo and see if I can come up with something better.

tatrasim i really like your website. I like you clean design too .

**Whathadiv** · 02-01-2011, 06:32 PM

Site looks great and it's your fault i was playing with it for an hour lol

**saveursocks123** · 02-01-2011, 07:21 PM

I like your idea for the website. I would suggest making the download avatars larger and more eye catching because it took me 10 seconds to figure it out but those may be the most crucial 10 seconds. Also, when I clicked on download avatars, I immediately saw a large text advertisement which I didn't like too much. However, everything else is FANTASTIC. Good luck with the website

fantastic website and overall is ok..
i just fall from your ads twice.. it thought it is your site.
awesome!

**ElmanF** · 02-03-2011, 08:39 AM

Humm.. I'm just clicked on "create cartoon avatar" button and get pop-up window with ads and title "We're sorry, that offer is not available in your area. You may be interested in one of the offers below:"

Where is action?? What I'm doing wrong?
