Hello everyone, a few months ago i ran a social networking site called facevault, its been closed and in redevelopment for a few months now, and yesterday i decided the layout needed a bit of a revamp, so i've made a start and wanted to get some early opinions on it. Heres a screenshot copyright Facevault.com 2006 please remember this is a very early in development screenshot Thanks in advance
Not bad at all! Very nice design! Clean and easy on the eyes. Just one comment: the multi-colored "vault" word somehow ruins the overall look. Or maybe it's just me.
yea im still playing around withj the logo, and still lots to do on the layout, very pleased you like it so far though, thats a good sign!
Very web 2.0! I like the text part of the logo (the colors are great) for the person icon I would add something else to it.. maybe hair? It looks too plain.
Yea i was thinking that, i need to play around with the logo alot. The polaroid picture will have our "member of the week" in so that should brighten things up a little also
Wow, that's really awesome! Not AT ALL what I would have expected here, this looks really professional.
Thanks, when the site opens it wont be what youd expect at all ether, its going to be a realy great website. Tom
Tomp - are you keeping a list of people to notify? If so add me ... anitab83. That's at gmail. Thanks!
Getting a little further now, heres a screnshot of the general pages, the previous screenshot was of the homepage. I would also appriciate feedback on advert placement Tom
First one looks best. Ad placement is good on the last one. Though I dont think you should place the login at the very bottom. It should be where you can immediatly see it.
Both of them will be used. the first one is just the homepage.....the other one is what all other pages wil be like as we dont want huge header on all pages .... the login at the bottom is more of a quck login and wont even display to most users, as they will allready be logged in when they are viewing pages.

Firstly, hi! I'm new to this site, my name's Phil! I couldn't help noticing the reflection effect which seems to be quite modern now. I'm using it pretty much myself for logos and sites and although many people (already) consider it cliché I think you've used it pretty well (as in in place). What I think you could improve is set a slightly darker border on the inside frame 'cause it merges with the white section now and seems (to me) a little... erm ... not finished Everything else is lovely! Good job!
facevault is too much like facebook.. add something other sites dont have.. pictures and people is everywhere.. what can you give me that other sites dont?
a hell of alot, but im not going to tell you, you'll have to wait and see, cant go giving away our unique features now can we Tom
Very nice so far man! Its looking good... However, it may look a little to plain.. add some content and it will be very nice indeed.. Keep it simple though dont over do it, I like your start! good luck!
It will all be very simple, and extreamly easy to use.....quite alot of ajax being used in the actual devleopment of the site to spice it up a bit like you said it will be the content that makes it look better realy Tom
