Topic: kewlster.com (Page 1 of 1)

ok so the site isn't open to the public yet, as you'll see by going to http://www.kewlster.com, but here's the finished version: http://kewlster.com/index.php It still needs oodles of content, but just tell me what you hate about the design. Oh yes, and what you like would be nice too.

It probably looks great in newer browsers

Here we go...
I checked in IE6, I don't have other browsers on the computer I'm on, so lets talk design...

Ok I like the navigation's appearance. I think you should put the actual navigation part of it (ie. Homes, games...) on the left. People read left to right generally, so it's a wee bit more natural than looking in the center. That's just my preference though... hell, I shouldn't really talk... my navigation on my site is aligned right ( http://www27.brinkster.com/fallasee ).

I don't care much for your logo. When I hear the word "kewlster", I think of something a little more modern... perhaps if you could get a cartoon of some dude just sittin' there lookin' all hip and shit with the word "kewlster" on it. That'd be pretty keen

VG talked about illegibility. He's very right. I can't read some of the green text in that dragging job. You might want to make a less contrasting background, or one that contrasts in a way that isn't terribly eye grabbing.

Actually, like someone said in your tag box... "down with blue" use a wee bit less or something.

FYI: the ftp link seems broken.

Hope this helps a bit.

I really think you should try match everything with the gradient, that looks good, but not with the rest, it just doesnt match the white navbar at the top. Also , the logo doesnt suit.

Also .. Is there any point in having a dragable navbar ?

Thanks, I think I'll do that,
Also about the dragable nav bar, there is no point whatsoever, it's just a fun little thing that I just learned so I put it on there.
