Anything else I need to improve?

Asher · 02-16-2009, 12:41 PM

Hi Warriors,

I just manually redesigned my whole blog...
Basically, installed the new Flexibility theme and
did an overhaul on the design.

Need to ask what else do you think I can do to
improve the over all look and feel of my blog?

Other than the footer (which I'm still trying to
figure out the codes for that), is there anything
else?

Feel free to make any kind of recommendations
on what I can do to improve it.

Thank you very much~ =)

Hey Asher, your design looks really great,

just one thing tho, the special effect your have on your logo, it makes it a little bit difficult to read.

Regards

Claudio

I agree with Claudio - this is a distraction.

It's a great theme the Flexibility theme which I use all the time.

Good job my friend, although I would recommend getting your root index page up to speed even if it's just transcribing your banner HTML. And I agree, the logo could loose the strike through effect. And the accessibility issues are likely an inherent template carryover. Something to work on in the future. But overall, nice work.

All looks fine except the "moremoneytospend.com". Logo should create an instant visual impact or it gives people a lasting impression.

I think it was a great blog. Thanks for the info. I agree the header logo is a bit hard to read.

Keep up the great work.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback!
I'll work on the strikethrough effect so that
it's easier to read. Will probably work on
the colour too.

Oh yes, I've been trying to get it up to speed
(one of the to-do lists I've got) and have been
trying to incorporate a couple of things.

Since I'm a one-man army for now, I'll be writing
my own copy - that's why it's taking some time =)

With regards to the accessibility, do you mean
the slow loading effect because of the coding
involved?

I'm not very code-y so might probably need to
hire someone to help me out with speeding up
the codes.

Edit:
How does it look now? Does it look too "white"?
Anything else I should work on?

Great site Asher, congrats and best of luck. The only thing that looks (actually 'sounds') strange is your article read with odiogo. I had a very hard time understanding what was being said as the guy read the article as a rather unrelated series of words instead of the meaningful sentences they really were. I don't know if this is important for you, just wanted to point it out. Other than this all looks nice

Great site! Just change the logo... it has to symbolize something...if you're not a big fan of symbols, maybe you can change the effects on the text. It competes with the effects on the background. Maybe you should not use gradient. Just one solid color, bevel it, put a little bit of drop shadow and that's it!
