Hi all, Just looking for overall opinions, likes, dislikes, advice, ect for our site. We are somewhat unique in that we promote a community, host our own game servers, support competitive teams, ect as well as try to offer up a daily dose of industry news. The site is very much a member driven experience with customizable profile pages for each member at URL's ala MySpace (www.straferight.com/craig) as well as user submitted content such as forums, blogs and reviews. Thanks for taking a look and for any constructive input you may have www.straferight.com
That;s a really nice gaming layout. The colors/gradients work well. What I would change is your adsense colors.. it clashes with the rest of the site. Why not blend it in by changing the background (light grey) to dark grey and remove the border. Might make your CTR higher
Very slow to load for me. The design looks nice, the colors work well. The Times font used for sponsors doesn't work well with the website. (Unless you're using a font that I don't have installed, either way it needs to be changed.) Also, the light gray box for the sponsors on the right of the home page looks bad, and kind of throws off the design. Change that to dark gray to match the rest of the website. The forums look really nice, and I love the websites logo. Overall, it's a really nice website that really goes what the website does. I like it, good job.
Thanks snake, not sure why it isn't loading for you...its hosted on a beefy cluster and usually zooms unless one of us is working on it. That may have been the case. Anyway, thanks for the input. The things you mentioned are my two biggest peeves, the small font and the grey banner area. Thanks again
