    Very nice application. I like the simple design.

    The only problem is the invalid URL notice. It sucks ;D

    It's clean, crisp, functional.

    Two thumbs up in my opinion.

    The invalid url page needs to be included in the layout though. Also there is perhaps a bit too much whitespace at the top. Try to center-align the content vertically.

    I agree.

    Also, maybe 'un bold' the dot points under the button, and make the logo bigger.

    Otherwise, very nice! :)

    I like it! It's very clean and the logo is fantastic.

    If it's possible, the only thing I suggest you do is to change the font of "Your New Short Link:" to the main font you use on the front page.

    All the best,
    Liam

    Much better! :)

    Sorry to be a pain but I thought I'd just offer one more suggestion -- I think it'll be a whole lot better if the URL was surrounded in a little red border or something that'll bring attention to the shortened URL.

    Nah, the shaking is a little annoying. Unique idea though. :)

    Hello PowerExtreme

    I had a look at your URL shortening website. I always love these useful tools that people make available. I think I'll be looking at one for myself in the future.

    My Thoughts

    Domain Name
    Excellent and easy to remember domain name!

    Logo
    Nice, clean and simple. Good for this site.

    Slogan
    I think you should do a slogan contest for your site. Right now, the slogan doesn't quite give you an idea about what your site does..... hmmmm....

    Ideas:
    • URL shortening
    • Cut your URL with CutURL
    • Shorten your link with CutURL
    • Cut the extra link text with CutURL

    Template
    Your site template is nice and simple. I did find that it left a lot of space at the top. See image below for sample of what I am refering to:

    [​IMG]

    Also, it seems that there is quite a bit of space between the logo and search bar. Please see image below to see what I am referring to:

    [​IMG]

    Navigation
    I realize that it is URL shortening website... but I still think that a contact page would be useful. Especially for people that may have troubles or wish to purchase links from you.

    Conclusion
    Excellent web tool website. I'll have to keep this flagged for myself.

    This review was done using IE6.02 on Windows XP SP2.

    I do hope this helps you.
    Respectfully,
    Lhlalyam

    I don't particularly think this is a bad thing though. It gives the site a lot of character and defines the cleanliness and simplicity of it. From what I could tell by resizing my browser window, the whole page floats so that the user never has to scroll down to see the site's content, regardless of their resolution. I could be wrong though.

    As I said before, a red border around the URL will attract attention it without looking too messy.
