I did this on my own a while back. I'm not a graphic designer and my programming is limited to VB so the site is very weak. I welcome all comments good and bad. Don't worry, you can't hurt my feelings, I already know the site is less than it should be. www.boutiquemusicinc.com Thanks for your help!
Looks pretty good,,but the fonts looks a liitle bit large and can you center it? too much space.. But Nice work pal! you did very well
Great site; maybe you could work a little on resolution of your content, a little sharpness. These are only minor adjustments, overall you got yourself a great website running. Best of Luck.
menu on the left is not 100% sharp ( maybe due to my monitor ) Follow the advise from the others ;-) need some minnor improvements but almost perfect to me
Which large fonts? The header image was created by a graphic designer. I just used parts of it to add more graphics but I feel as if I might have gone too far. The menu on the left seems to be a function of the font and possibly how Yahoo Sitebuilder turns it into an image.
Replace other images(without logo) with good color and use smaller font. It will looks cool. Good lucks.
overall i'd say good site.. the menu and header may be a little busy but that just may be me (not a big fan of red) also on a few pages it seemed to bog when loading images. be sure you have clean images that are not big in size (especially if you have a lot on the page)
Hi Initial reactions in list form: Couple of seconds plus delay to load the site (maybe image heavy?) Colour scheme is OK perhaps one more contrasting colour may crispen things up Really importantly you interface is a littl busy and the font is not clear. Negative points out off the way (sorry) There is a good straight forward simplicity of your content, not overly verbose and easy to know where you are what you want and whats on offer. There is almost something to the graphic design that makes me think you guys spend your time with and love music rather than website design, which is after all what your selling. I wouldn't want you to lose that and look to corporate and uncaring and cold. regards Maurice
Thanks Mozzer. Actually the negative stuff is the most important to me. If something is good there is no point in changing it. If something is bad (legitimately) then it needs to be changed. I really want to make it crisper and the idea of a contrasting color is an excellent one. Thanks for that. Yes I am into music as opposed to website design but the internet is important to me.
The YouTube is probably not that relevant but the mySpace is. The links page are some friends of mine that make music products. Relevant from an industry point of view, I guess. I could probably make the ones on the front page blend a little more into the theme. Thank You.
Honestly, the website layout makes me think of how websites looked when people started making them. I'd suggest finding a free template somewhere and use that.
SageStone bad idea free templets will cause problems down the line I say build your own better" go with Dream Weaver best
Nicely done as you're not a graphic designer.. Text in left menu is not sharp.. I agree with Aaron111, build something yourself with dreamweaver!
Too much to list down, I'll suggest you give the site to some professional designer for redesigning and development.
