Hello Fellow Warriors,

Just finished up the look of my new site Shrinkd.it. I plan on adding a FAQ page in the future, but just looking for feedback right now on the look and function of the site. Let me know what you think! Thanks!

    I think it needs more...

    When I first came to the site I thought it loaded funny and hit the refresh button.

    Put more visuals on it.

    Try making the text a little bigger.

    Do something to make the page "pop" and grab peoples attention.

    Just my opinion.

    The same to above commentor, you need more attractive graphics. It's too plain like I walk along the Sahara which has no trees at all. Do add more images is the main point; furthermore, customize your typography abit will be better!

    I just wanna tell you that most of the links in the signature are trash and/or a trap to make you pay!

      I like the nice, clean design. I am not sure if it needs too much of jazzing up. I mean once you place all those ads down below, the place won't look so barren anymore.

      If you do add more design elements, keep it subtle. Maybe you could add a text graphic next to your logo/slogan ("shorter is better") -elaborating on the slogan. That way the visitor will know in a second what the site is about.

      But yes, play around with the typography, it definitely needs some work. The font size has to go up for sure, maybe even choose a darker color. Right now the text is really hard to read.

      Also, perhaps find another way to highlight the current link (Shorten/Browse). Right now a blue line ABOVE the link highlights the current page. To me it appeared as if there's a graphic stuck above the page that I couldn't get to.

      Lastly, consider having an "About" page, to lend credibility to the website. Personally, I wouldn't use a website to shorten my URL unless I was sure it was in safe hands.

    I am sorry to say I have to agree with the others that say it requires more. I think the font should be darker and there should certainly be more graphics.

    It is clean looking but I also feel you should have a few more pages - "about me"and a site agreement.

    What I mean by more visuals is, put your page on a paper background that has a shadow behind it.

    Break up your text, you have 3 sections of text. Put each section on its own 3d paper so the sections look like its popping off the page.

    You can look at my page to see what I mean about the shadow behind the paper.

    Good luck

    I don't like your color combination.
    If you use more color on your site then it'll be more beautiful.

    Nice project but it is missing some images to give life to the website.

    I think the idea of doing it minimal and clean is good, but I would put more emphasis in the logo. It's like the input box section grabs a lot of attention and when you first visit the site, you don't know exactly what it is about.

    If you're going to tell members to check your signature, this is what they'll see.
