Website Review and Suggestions

**karnetics** · 01-02-2007, 03:17 PM

Please let me know what you think about my site.. http://www.logoauction.net

I like the idea of your site but have a few reservations about it.
I assume you hope to sell your logos. Well first off I would think you would come up with a better logo for your banner.
I have looked at several of your logos and none of them seem to have nice clean edges, suggest you get help from the graphics forum to clean them up.
You also need to proof read your logo descriptions, there are too many typos which don't give a very professional image.
Why have you disabled right click, it hasn't acheived anything you can still check the HTML through the view option on the menu bar.

Looks good but you need to work on traffic so you wont get low bids and work hard for pennies.

I agree with Aldor -- especially about the right-click being disabled; even though you got the "copy/paste" script from Dynamic Drive it took me all of 5 seconds to locate your images, so that I could save them on my PC if I wanted to.

Thanks guys for all your help...

**Mystic Rose** · 07:27 PM

I like the concept but I think there are a few issues you need to work on.

When the page 1st loads the time the auction finishes bleeds into the blue before it converts to the count down - which by the way I love.

I think your preview pics of the logo's need to be brighter & clearer & I find the yellow/green menu bar hard to read.

Good luck & I hope it works for you

Since you’ve locked your HTML so it can’t be quickly edited in e.g. Dreamwaver, I can’t be bothered to try and fix your problem with the logo and images. If you look at it properly, you’ll see they don’t display right. My guess would be your ‘ cellpadding="2" ’. It shrinks the images by 2 pixels from each side and makes them look shaky.

About the edit lock: Just like disabling the right click, these things are completely useless, unnecessary and very easy to work around. When you’re looking for suggestions or help, you shouldn’t make it awkward for others to play with the code.

**raise** · 01-04-2007, 08:37 PM

Actually, the problem isn't cellpadding. It is your width=100%. Make your images correct size for the table cells.

**lunchbox170** · 01-04-2007, 09:28 PM

Looks pretty good, and I like that it is real time.

Only thing is that logo is bad, and the yellow bar under the logo is bad.

**webagogo** · 12:25 PM

I think it might look better with a liquid layout and with the logo placed a little higher..

I am pming you about your site. I have some info for you that I dont think would be right to share with the world.
