Hi I have had an idea to create a website around house deposits and the recession, mainly because I am trying to save for one and finding it difficult! its in its early stages so want some initial thoughts on the design and ideas of what people would want to see from the site? www.ourhousedeposit.co.uk
I think the layout does not match with the topic you are up to....cause you are dealing with a serious issue but the style is based on Cartoon. Dnt think that it is a better idea. Also you should be very clear about what you like to deliver through your site. Hope it is not clear at all.
I love the idea. Getting the deposit is what stops most people. I disagree with free_mockups. It does not bother me. It is a dream for most people to get a house and this Cartoon fits into that.
content is good and the site has potential, but it's very bright for a text heavy site. after a while it's like staring at a lightbulb. consider a theme change with white/light text on a dark background.
