Anyone would like to comment on my new Drupal based website?

    I built this new dating website datemyride using Drupal. Sometimes I am wondering if I should have chosen different platform because the look and feel of the site is kind of “edgy”. When you look at other dating sites they look kind of polished and smooth.

    Should switch to another platform? Or do I need to work on design side and polish the look of it?

    This is not even a drupal site it is just a affiliate link.

    Stop wasting people time with trash. that's my comment for your site.

    @averyz what are you talking about? Link is in his signature.

    @oneyearauction Some points...
    - No need to switch to other platform. Just work on your design.
    - If you don't know much theming, get someone to do it for you.
    - Some more features would be nice.
    - The header has an empty space, you could put the search box there instead.
    - CHANGE your theme base color. It's kind of boring. You know how colors affect the look of the site?
    - Use gradient and shadowed images. Just don't overdo. Stay simple and professional.
    - Get inspiration from other dating sites.
    - What's up with that static image on the front? Use jquery to put some life on it!
    - CSS and Javascript are not optimized. Site performance could hurt.
    - I could go on and on and on...

    Hope you appreciate my honest input... Good luck on your site!

    Design has nothing to do whether you're using drupal or not.

    Sorry I clicked on the "dating" link in the post. Wrong site.

    My bad.

    I agree with TrafficRider the design has nothing to do with Drupal you can make a Drupal site look how ever you want you just need to theme it.

    I said sorry I clicked on the wrong link. But what ever I'm sure you know what a theme is and you just want a Backlink.. you are still wasting peoples time.
