Hi Trasher, I like the colored footer bars, but I feel the footer should be a different color. Not sure what wold look good there. Links in the top navigation should be first initial capitalization, and the background outside the boxed area should be the bg image currently in use here. Other elements of the design have a more "techie" or "progressive" feel than I want. We are going for "conservative."
I would start by removing the Solutions About Blog Contact from the center-left part of the header. I would remove the PC screens. The size of the color bars appear to convey a strong, brutish image. I would prefer a more refined, elegant image. The footer appears too white. Not sure what color should be there. I prefer the way Trasher did the logo in the header - v, seven and inc being the same size.
Hi xTreme, The boxes in the header do not appeal to me. I like the overall direction you went with the footer, but it seems a bit, well, I don't know the English word but in Japan we say "味が濃い”。Which translated means "strong flavor." And that doesn't make sense. The best I can put it is this. I think the elements of the design should not draw attention to themselves. More mild, more conservative, perhaps.
Alright sir it's feel "aji ga koi" cause i try not to put other color themes, only your themes, but let me try to do the other color for footer and make something smoother as you want that will be more conservative... will be back with revision soon sir...
Hi John! I just corected the BG outside the wepage design (the texture) and the footer i think now realy looks better. Now everthing is "conservative." ?
I like the top navigation here. The grey in the header and the grey in the 2 boxes under the office photo, and the grey in the bg of tab titles 2 and 3 - this grey is not appealing. The bg under the logo in "our happy clients" area is nice. I like that. Grey in the footer not so much, and the blue in the footer widgets area has a strong aftertaste.
I think you hit on something really good here. I'll try to get some feedback together tonight, but it might end up being tomorrow.
Allright John, let me know if you need some more changes. I wait to choose the winner. All my best Trasher.
A few people told me via PM that they would be entering the contest. Just FYI for everybody: Contest closes on the 21st, no reason to extend beyond that date. I like the footer bg color, and pretty much every other bg color other than the header. There is a warmth to the other colors that is lacking in the header. Top nav should be first letter caps, not all caps. Diagonal body image does not fit the brand. It's not a youthful or techie-centred target audience. We don't do hosting. The basis for layout of the page was live at the time the contest was announced, since been removed. xTreme used the correct layout. I have given a lot of feedback here and via PM. I refer participants to the first post in this thread. I know it's long, because I spent a good deal of time writing it.
