    Want a treat?

    Well, do you? Treatie.com is basically a project of mine that I want to keep and develop. The intent is to post a new "babe" or model everyday with a short paragraph and a few pictures. Right now, I only have two. But, please tell me what you think and bookmark us if you like!

    I am not showing porn, or nudity. So, it should stay in terms with adsense.

    Thanks,

    Damien

    Here're some tips for you :)

    • Make the buttons smaller and change their color so it matches the pink background.
    • That grey color (Blog Archive, Blog Roll etc) doesn't match either. I'd make them the same bright pink color as your header.
    • Put the picture in a row, so it's easier for your visitors to view them.

    Other that that I can't see any problems with your theme. :) I like the shiny effects you used and the colors are easy to my eyes.

    Thanks Katy.

    I will probably make them smaller, the reason I used grey was to match the text.

    now were the colors easy on your eyes, or the pictures ;) lol

    thanks,

    The design has potential but there are some things that are awkward about it. For one, your logo: the top of the logo fades to white which blends into the background, so it doesn't pop out. Either don't fade all the way to white, or put the logo on a nonwhite background. Maybe put a drop shadow on it. Then I would make the logo bigger, and remove everything above it in the header -- that gradient at the very top and the block of color under it. It's unnecessary IMO, just put the logo right at the top, bam.

    Similar critique with the month "buttons". Actually, there is some confusion between the look/feel of buttons and other components of your site. I would take the post dates out of the gradient "button" look as well as the "blog archive", "blog roll", "adverts", etc. headers. Actually why is a lot of that stuff even there. Just remove blog roll, remove both adverts headers. Make adsense background blend into site background.

    Footer is hideous IMO, just make it seem like the site drops right to the bottom of the browser, doesn't even need to look different.

    SEO - there is a lot to do. Fix your Title tags, here is the order: Post Title - A few keywords describing your site - Blog Title. Google Wordpress robots.txt, yours needs a major overhaul.

    Ping me for help if need be, I do Wordpress professionally.

    The images open in a new window but the links are broken. Proof read your text... and add more - do your research on these girls and let it show.

    Do you have the rights to these images?

    I'm surprised you want pink on a blokes site. I wouldn't want to visit a site that pink... do guys?

    sarahk is right about the pink theme. You should change it something else. Maybe purple can be used. Don't use blue though :p

    Also, the buttons and navigation that you are using, remove the styling that you've added to them. It looks a bit awkward rather than adding to the beauty of the website.

    Also as already mentioned above, some buttons are grey, others are pink. You'll need to correct them. And add a proper footer to the site.

    Also, try and fill the blank space you have in the left and right columns when you scroll down. Add interesting things there, that will interest the users, like you can add polls to the site, popular babe of the month, (have the users vote for their fav babe), get alerts by email etc.

    The domain name is really great and you can do much with the site.

    Also, I don't think there is any need to add the links to Google, Yahoo and MSN in the left navigation column. You should remove them. They will just make the user go away from your site.

    Hello,

    Its not bad, suits the purpose well. As has been said, great domain. Nice chicks too. :D

    I don't like the purple bars which surround the content frame (in the negative space). I think you ought to replace those with a background of some variety, even if its just stripes.

    I'm not crazy about the nav either, but it works. I don't like left navs that don't touch the left side of the page - either make the site expand or do top nav.

    Cheers
    George

    An attempty at web 2.0 eh? Here are a few suggestions
    - Add a light background color (light pink perhaps) for your table on the right
    - Use a darker pink for your adsense font colors so it's easier to read
    - For your content area, add either a 1 pixel black border around the links or none.. don't keep it blue. Space the photographs a bit from each other so the edges aren't touching and center them

    the color is good. for a woman'swebsite and from a woman's point of view, your color combination is fine.

    i suggest to make your font a little smaller.
    remove the borders on every picture...
    make the pictures a little smaller and put it in a row since its an image pop for more neat look of your site.

    just my thoughts..

    My impressions...

    Style

    Color Schema
    I have to agree with the questions about the color scheme. The pink doesn't appeal to me in the least bit, on the other hand I don't frequent too many actress/model galleries either, so I may not be the best jusdge of such things.

    Images
    I agree also that you should tag on a style for your .img border so that you don't get those blue/purple borders - that just looks lazy - and space between the images would add some professionalism as well.

    I suggest using an Image gallery script that will piggyback on the WordPress platform you're using. I like Gallery2, it allows you to integrate the galleryinto the existing template AND makes it super simple to link thumbnails from your posts.


    Content
    Again I agree with an earlier poster - more content + unique content. Sure you might get some hits doing just like you are, but if you have unique content you'll do a lot better. You don't have to really write that much either.

    The information is out there all over the place, take a few minutes to pull up some pages, news stories, fansites etc for inspiration & raw data - then rework pieces of the existing content to fit your sites style and tone.

    Links
    If you're collecting images and information from around the net why not share your research with visitors in the form of related links. Sure you'll leak some traffic, but you'll benefit from being more relevant to engines and being seen as more of a resource for actress fans.

    Again - Just my $0.02

    - make the main section wider
    - Add more text to your posts
    - Get an actual header. Yours is too empty right now
    - I like the colors
    - Add a gallery

    The content is good but it seems your keywords are targetting Irish advertisements instead you want to target celebrity ads, try using the competitive ad filter and filter those irish ads and you'll gain better CTR.

    As for design, the header could do a remake.

    Try keeping the images all the same width and get rid of the img border. It's coming along nicely though.

    I like the colors, but i dont like the aligment and border of the pictures

    Try different aligments and the pictures all the same size.
