Hi, guys! I am done redesigning my website. What are your thoughts about it? How are colors, animation, navigation, etc? Please give me your suggestions. I really appreciate your opinion. https://under-the-open-sky.com
I haven't seen stats like this since my dial up days. The page is still loading It's up to 2.7 minutes now. The site took 5 seconds to even respond to my request main_animation_atlas_.png took 1.6 minutes to load fire_animation_atlas_.png took 11 seconds to load I don't know what you're getting from that russian site but it's not helping your load speeds either.
Still took 45 seconds to load. That is way too slow. My main index page, though hopelessly dated, with nearly 3000 links on it, ONLY TAKES TWO(2) SECONDS to load on this computer. Your page, essentially with NOTHING on it, should load so fast that I could not measure the loading speed. Next, there is NOTHING above the fold to even SUGGEST that one should scroll down for content. All that is above the fold is a menu, a blue square to the left, and a child's drawing to the right. THERE IS NO CALL-TO-ACTION ANYWHERE ABOVE THE FOLD! That is a HUGE NO-NO. If what I see above the fold is indicative of your site, I see no point in scrolling down for confirmation. Considering the loading speed (SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW) I seriously doubt that whatever is below the fold is even worth looking at. I am not a coding expert like @deathshadow is, but if I were to look under the hood I would probably see OODLES of Javascript files for NOTHING, OODLES of CSS files for NOTHING, OODLES of BLOATED image files, and so on. Just the HANDSHAKING time would probably cause my brain to explode.
Thank you for your suggestions! And sorry, for not a pleasant experience with our site. We're gonna change it now
