Topic: Need Feedback on this site please (Page 1 of 1)

Hello guys,

Long time no see .. i've been missing this asylum home Hope you all are doing good n stuff.

Here we made a new site for hosting company. please let me know what you think of it.
http://askhosting.net/v1/

any detailed feedback and suggestions to improve it will be appreciated .

I didn't add flash banner or anything relating to it for a reason but if therez a need, do let me know about it too.

Thanks all

It needs some other color than blue to give my eyes someplace to look.

As is they just kind of float in the window not focusing on any particular thing.

Yeah, a highlight color wouldn't be bad.

Also, the page alignment is a bit weird. You have no left margin, yet there's a ton of empty space on the right. I know that you're working with a fixed width here (mainly because of the top graphic and menu tabs), but you need to space things out a little better. At the very least, give us a margin on the left. Either that or center the lower section.

Wow, I just looked at the source... tables and spacer .gifs... ugh. I can understand making it want to work in every browser, but there must be some way to get a CSS layout that won't break in older browsers. Ah, well, I guess sticking with tables is safer in some situations.

Definately need some more colors, and something a little stronger than all the soft blues and greys going on.

Overall, it has a nice feel, but I think some things are really way to 'soft'. Too much blurring and all...

I would also very strongly suggest trying to do this without the tables. Most of the layout could be done extremely easily without them (and would save you some bandwidth/maintence time). Some parts may be a little truckier, but I don't see anything that *requires* tables.

I despise 'spacer' gifs as well...even when tables were about the only way to go, it never made sense to me to use them in such a way.

my 2 cents...

Hi.....


Im the designer of that site, thanks for the feedback. Anyway I was wondering if you can explain to me about :

"I would also very strongly suggest trying to do this without the tables. Most of the layout could be done extremely easily without them (and would save you some bandwidth/maintence time). Some parts may be a little truckier, but I don't see anything that *requires* tables."

Cheers,

Welcome masboy

Don't know anything about DW, but one idea (shocking as it might seem) is to code the site by hand. It might be more work, but at least you get total/more control over how the page looks and works.
