Review Design

Page seems blank. Is it under construction or you just decided to take it off.

Wordpress is not bad at all, easy to set-up and tons of very useful application that could help you save lots and lots of hours!

Oh thanks... yes I was tweaking it at one point.
Now its back to the usual look.

The site was very attractive and looks like your add content. Great work!

Thanks...thats some good feedback.

How do I create that gloss effect?

hi dhanasekar.

i agree with alexcercel, just simply google gloss or glass effect with photoshop... and see how it works.... good luck!!!!

I love your logo! The overall header, I'm lukewarm about. (But that's personal preference...)

If it were my site, I would want to make the design even more dramatic by making the following changes:

I would drop the .com from the header image and put "Passion for" on one line and "Dancing" on next, indented somewhat and moved to the right to put some space between the text and the logo. For the capital letters on Passion and Dancing, I'd use a font with flowing lines to compliment the dancers in the logo. And I'd remove the three photos from the header altogether. (On a large screen like mine, the images are about the size of a postage stamp.)

Whether or not Passion4Dancing.com is the legal name of the business, I would put it on one line in smaller text, along with the tagline, like this:

Dancing Made Easy... Passion4Dancing.com

For the body background, I'd use a gradient that fades from Black at the top to very dark gray. The image need only be one or two pixels wide and just the height of the gradient. Then set to the image to repeat horizontally ( css attribute--background-repeat:repeat-x; ) I'd then make the body background color the same as the dark gray in the gradient. (the blackish background will make a very dramatic presentation. After all, passion is a dramatic emotion.)

That's all I'd change if it were my site. But remember, it's all subjective. What appeals to me, isn't going to appeal to everybody else. So follow your gut instinct. It's your site, it needs to reflect you.

As for the width, font size of the menu and so on, I'd recommend you sign up for Google Analytics and put the code in your footer (if you haven't already.) After a couple of weeks, go check out screen sizes under Visitors. The longer the sample time, the better representation you'll get, but before you make changes based on one person having trouble with the sizes, find out what your visitors are seeing.

If the majority of your visitors have wide screens and high resolutions, you won't want to change your fixed width, or menu font sizes. My monitor is "true hd" (1920x1080) and the menu is perfect for me.

On the other hand, if the majority of your visitors are using smaller resolutions, you may want to rethink the menu font size. As for the width, I wouldn't go with a smaller width unless most of you visitors have screens widths of less than 1152. (I tried 1024 but it cuts off slightly on the right.) And then you should consider using a fluid width that can accommodate both the smaller and higher resolution screens.

Overall, the site looks really good. Clean, easy to navigate, lots of good information. The red and white on black is very dramatic, and the logo is evocative of both dance and passion. If you don't change anything from the way it is today, it's still a good-looking site.

Respectfully,
