Website Review and Suggestions

Please look at my website and give me some input. I have tried to build the site so that I can add pages later. Eventually I will have forms, resources, etc. I have still got to get more photos I know. And some of the text on the commercial page needs to be finished up but please let me have it. Good, bad and the UGLY.

thanks for any review or suggestion in advance.

Overall, I think the website is pleasant to browse. The color scheme is non-offensive (to the eyes), the text is readable & overall I wouldn't mind spending some time on it. I also like the navigation menu; nice use of css.

Some suggestions, The header graphic - I don't like the way it looks "blocky", maybe the font could be smoothed out some? Maybe it wouldn't look right "smooth", but I think it could be improved over what it is.

On the contact page, the header graphic looks to be inside some boxes with borders: maybe put a little bit of padding between the image & the border walls - it seems a bit "squished".

Things look pretty good; I'm comfortable with the color scheme because I love earth tones, some might see it as drab or boring, I personally like it though.

Goginski hello, I have seen your site and it's nice, why not putting a darker color in the header and in the main content not to dark, I mean that you can invert the way it's now. Also you can use some gradients in the site to soft more the separations in the different sections.

Hope you improve it, but now it's nice anyway

Thank you Pulah,

I tried inverting the colors and it just didn't look right. I guess I like the color scheme. Some people hate it and some really like it.

I liked the idea of using some gradient. And when I tested it out it looks cool. I havn't gotten it on the web yet, going to work on it. I also found something else I wanted to change in order to make the gradient look right top and bottom.

Thanks for the input.

Ok, I put a Gradient around the content areas. See what you think. I thought it looked nice.

I don't know if I didn't notice it before or something changed in that respect, in Firefox using 1024x768 screen resolution I am getting a horizontal scroll bar for your pages; i.e. your page is too wide to fit in my browser window.

Hello there. I'm not designer at all, but I like something beautiful. Your website looks beautiful fr me. I think that everything is fine.

**Goginski** · 06-27-2007, 09:17 PM

whooligan do you care to look at my site again to see if the width problem has been resolved. I made a few minor adjustments. If that doesn't fix it I will work on it somemore.
Thanks

Brown and red is a good color choice. That's about the only good thing I see in the site. The navigation seems like you stuck some code from another site in there and the logo, dear god, was that made in Paint? Sorry for the pounding of critique but I felt I had to tell you. The layout isn't as bad as the logo, but I've seen much better. Just put some time and effort into your work and you should be pleased as well as your visitors.
