I gave new look to my Website directory www.zihh.com . Please share your valuable comment on my design. Thanks
Doesn't look very good to be honest mate, in firefox the top image breaks (with whitespace) The black buttons, and dictionary style layout really don't seem to go with the 'cartoony' icons that you have on there!
Whitespace in header needs to go, remedy is a to repeat the header in background for header. Images like submit etc are kinda grainy on the edges. But it looks better than the default phpld theme
The bevelled buttons need to be antialiased. And the overall look, especially with those buttons, is quite retro, as in typical for about 5 years ago.
you need a background to compensate for your header since the top right side floats all the way to the right, leaving white space between the left and right.
seems like u r using one of the free templates of futuristic artists and just building on it ... it would be good to start from scratch... i dont like the buttons
get a nice little logo, in place of the white space and you domain name at top. that will help a lot. getting a custom logo always help, that's why am getting a logo made by a professional!
Needs some work... but I'm proud of you that your going out and trying to make your own template... just keep working on it and you'll get her working right
It looks bad for sure But tell you what....dare not try to sell this template coz i own it as GreenShade template Ask mods to close down your thread in templates section where you are selling this template I mean, what a rip. http://www.allydirectory.com/phpldtemplates/ Go through that and you shud know that this template is a copy of GreenShade Proof: you still have the same footer....Grrr http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=286158 Request the mods to close the above thread!
i mentioned it ... cuz i saw it ... but i didn't say rip off because he had the same footer ... but didn't kno he was selling it
It looked good in my eyes. But a site map could have reallu helped. I'll also change the template of my directory in few days' time. But need lots of $$$ for that as my demands are quite weird to both designers and coders.
Remove the whitespace in header. I dont like the buttons as well. Next time, try to build something of your own.
I am not sure how it looks like greenshade template, looks totally different on my pc... what did i miss?
lol .. he reminds me so much of my early days when i ripped Jamey's template thinking i did a very good job because i changed the images and made the simple template look very 3-D but i used Jamey's CSS and all the stuff He is doing the same thing... i can tell by looking at it... You missed it because he had the same category structure as GreenShade he just removed those borders around but u kno wat he forgot http://www.zihh.com/Computers/ << Ahh thts just like greenshade http://www.xhii.com/Internet/ << look at greenshade one Also take a note of the featured listings ... .He seemed to remove all the images in the background as green shade have here http://www.xhii.com/Internet/Web_Directories/ << u see the title of featured link's background look here http://www.zihh.com/Computers/Web_Directories/ << he just removed the background but didn't realize the fact that the title still stays there like some stupid thing looks completely irrelevant. Also look at his featured listing heading <<< u see the arrow image sayin featured listing in both Search button ... sayin Browse Directory he just removed the mouse and search bar and junk same thing ..... copy to copy and wow look at the regular listing exact same wow didn't he copy (How can u miss this one?) look at the footer he is just changing colors and adding images ... and making it his own but he is ripping GreenShade template which is why i think he deserves a Red Rep from me... and i dont know you personally but Jamey thought me how to make templates because i ripped his once ... so i'll return his favor by doing it to someone else. I will teach you how to code if you promise not to ripp anyone else's template again. let me know if you are ready.
