I need suggestions on how I should re-design this site

    I am planning on re-designing this site completely but can not think of a good layout or design. I really like the sort of layouts like I have put on http://www.mytipper.com and want something similar but not the same.

    basically I want to find a medium ground between being easy to use and professional whilst at the same time being functional.

    Does anyone have any suggestions, samples, templates or in general anything to add for the site

    Hi there!I see you are here as well!Good to see people from e107 community around!Anyway,I too like simple theme!What I would do:
    Take a theme,like Sebes,or Akiras Xbox(xheck it out)and customize it to look like you want it to.
    For example on Sebes,i added a second menu,and made some pages full.
    Well,you can change the CSS to fit the way you want.
    I never like all those complex themes as well.They are just a waste of time.Really.

    agreed I will ook into those. I want to really optimize it for advertising as well, much like on mytipper.com

    just experiement with the font size, i think the site looks fine, put a nice logo for your site and it would do just fine

    I would redesign the header first (it doesn't match the background or work well with it). I would have to agree with jacksmith, a good logo would perfect your site!
