Preserved Topic: new pages... critic needed! (Page 1 of 1)

Hey I made new snowboarding pages for me could you guy's check them out and let me know what you think!? http://www.mbnet.fi/~powder

The front page would have been better if you showed more of the snow boarding, also the jaggedness of the ?NT designs? logo really doesn?t look very good.

I like the layout and for the main page although there isn?t much content.

I agree with eskimo. The splash is a bit messy, but the rest looks good.

hey I put some more graphics to my page could you guy's check them, give some critique and advices?! http://www.mbnet.fi/~powder

The only problem with the actual site is that on IE5 on my Mac here the text links are too tall to fit in their box and I think the last one is wrapping to the next line. Other than that I think its well done.

The splash graphic has a few nice subtleties to it, but the harshness of the jagged lines suck all the attention to themselves for no reason. When using harsh diagonal lines like that it's best if they serve some purpose. For example, if you had a picture of someone dropping into a large half-pipe at a stark angle, you could use diagonal lines to frame the subject and emphasize the movement of the photo. Here all you've done is cut off the head of the subject. Heck, u might even be able to use that head chopping effect for a good purpose if you really had something that you wanted to see when they looked for his head, but as it stands that splash has no focus or message...

it all looks nice to me but you have two enter pages. theres really no need for the first in the first place, get rid of them both is my advice...

splash pages need a purpose...

Actual site looks good, but first page...I don't know I just don't like the effect.

Good luck with the boarding!
