Music Lyrics Database Site - Lyric Cat

Discussion in 'Websites' started by twistedspikes, May 1, 2009.

    Hi,

    I have just started a lyrics database site called Lyric Cat.

    I designed and coded it all myself and some feedback on it would be great!

    I also made this mascot/logo for it (after I designed the layout sadly). It doesn't fit in with this layout, but if I ever change the design I will make sure it does look good on there, cause I think this wee cat is great!

    Feedback on that would be nice too :)

    Any feedback is appreciated,
    Thanks,
    TS

    Adsense placement could be improved - the adsense block in the middle could be moved to the left menu I think.

    The hover effects on the menus look nice.

    Looks nice so far, keep on adding content. Good Luck :)

    P.S. and I expected to see a cat when I opened the site :D The logo you designed looks cute, try to add it if possible. I'm sure that it will attract your visitors (girls especially).

    The design looks nice. Clean and simple.

    I agree with blichev. Improve your adsense placement.

    I also expected to see a cat on the website.

    good luck!

    Yeah, I designed the cat after I made the website, and it doesn't really look like it should be there if I put it in the design that is there at the moment.
    I will more than likely re-design it at some point to incorporate her into the design.

    I know the adsense placement needs a bit of work. I'd rather work on that once I have constant traffic (so I can test out different placements/sizes easily)

    Thanks!

    Looks pretty good. I hope you can work in the cat graphic, because it is excellent in my opinion!

    Thanks!

    I really do want to work in the cat mascot as part of the design, but really that would be best done through a whole re-design which I really can't be bothered with at the moment :rolleyes: I have ideas of what i'd do with it, but its getting round to doing them thats the problem.

    its clean & simple design, it would be great if you can integrate the cat design to your current site layout

    notes: TS, dont forget to add more resources/content on your left sidebar (under search/affiliates) box :D

    Yeah I probably will add something there. An advert probably once the site is going. Might add statistics (so the amount of songs/albums/artists that are in the site). Can't really think of anything else that would be useful to have there. Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    advert can be good also, or you can display most viewed lyrics/top rated lyrics

    Hmm, maybe. I'd have to implement a rating system for top rated though :rolleyes:, maybe in the future. For now this will do.

    What further steps?

    Actually, I should really fix that "advanced search" part of the site sometime soon...
