http://www.thesis-design.com/ Well I need to add several more pages to the portfolio, and the services page is still under construction, but the design is very intact and functional. Truth is I'm much more of a graphic designer than web designer. It's just recently I've been getting into web design, there's a lot I still have to learn. I used to just offer graphic design services, but I'm just starting to offer web design. Feedback for ONE of my first designs appreciated. (Posted this in the wrong place earlier, moved it)
Wow. Great logo. Nice look. I would say that it is too dark and that you need to get something that loads right away to hook people into staying while the rest of the site loads. While your logo is beautiful, I think you could really make it smaller so that your menu was more readily available.
Theme of your site is good and fits your niche logo of your site is pretty cool too according to me no need to change anything.
Nice, very unique design. Color scheme and images are good. Just make that hand logo your favicon as well and you should be in tip top shape for business.
Thanks! I actually did that, in fact I finished just about all of the site, EVERY page is different now. It's a lot better. Thanks for your feedback everyone, you can check out the improved version of the site now.
honest advise - I like your graphics, not webdesign. Front page too dark and for people who have no idea about graphics will look a bit dark and depressing, may scare them off from navigating further. In my life used graphic designers few times, searched trough many sites to find right one who will be able to represent in his work what we need, our style - I would not contacted you, reason - I would look for more diversity in style on website - it would give me confidence that you able to make that logo or print in our taste/style. So definitely add more works, like logos, cards and so on - things that you could get orders for easy. I like that you entered prices straight forward, I hate "contact for quote". Add something about yourself, passion for design, bla-bla - customers do look for that kind of things. Now important - you need content! lots of text enriched with keywords that people would normally type to search engine to find graphics/web designer, otherwise no one ever will find your site (of course unless you planning other advertising options)
You seem to know what you're talking about. I know I really need to add more to the portfolio! But about the front page being too dark... You know that rollover effect graphic on the front page? It only gets all colorful once you roll over it, maybe I should just make it so it's always colorful and maybe add a different rollover effect? That way one of the first things people would see is that cool, colorful, bright graphic. Is that enough to counter this "dark" feeling my homepage has?
