I am just about done with a christian social site, will have dating and directories plus a bunch more, but need someone elses eyes as an opinion. The site is christian zest The main page is a little slow loading the first time but it caches well. Please give your opinion.
the loading time is tooo slow for me, which in really acceptable. As far as the design, it looks really good.
The loading ok. The color scheme for header and content didn't look well maybe.. Just like sparcky say..
I agree with the previous comment that the loading time is too slow. Not sure if it's a server or site issue. I like the design but I feel there is too much "green" on it. I would choose a different color for the title tabs. Perhaps reuse one of the colors you got in the header?
Nice input everyone, I can't do much about the load time, its more a drupal issue I think they seem to load slow the first time at least for me. (I think it can be sped up some but Ill see as I go) Should maybe the tabs on the menu stay dark like when you hover over them would that help with the color maybe. Thanks any advice is great.
May be the color matching between head section(banner) and the rest other is a little bit contradictory.
I agree with sparckyz. The entire design and layout is well organized, it's just the header and the color scheme after the header. You probably might want to play some of the colors out of the header into the body somewhere. Overall it's good.
As far as speed, don't know if you've already enabled this, but you can enable page caching, CSS file aggregation and block caching. If it's still loading slow you may want to check with your host.
Good Design, Site loads good to me, good design. But i think you must get a good logo for your site. Good Luck
I like the site, loads a little slow, love the header but the black text "Christian Zest" needs to be changed, at least change the color, but what you really need is a logo on that spot, even if you did it with WordArt
Thanks again, I am working on a few design changes with the header, nothing i do quite hits it. I might try to get rid of the header background give the menu a little darker coler and make the book smaller. Opinions as always are great even if bad.
Ok one of the posts i received mentioned the cache and css and javascript speed up functions with drupal, I did have them off which might have slowed the system. The server is mine and its not overloaded so I hope that helped with load times. Ive done so many sites lately that I have forgotten to check the performance area in drupal so ive had to go back on several of my last sites and do that. has that helped some. And I will keep adjusting the header.
I agree with spackyz. The design looks good though. The loading time is good. Like anildewani said, think of a good logo for the site. good luck!
The loading of the site is really slow. A site should show all its homepage content in less than 8 seconds.
Excellent banner image and good colors. I like it. I think you need to move the content into little bit up, to reduce the space on the top.
Nice colour scheme and nice use of columns. You need to put RSS somewhere easy to get located by visitor.
