I would like to officially request website reviews of my recently launched Blog engage website. I have gotten tons of feedback from Digital Point members and it's all been positive regarding the ideal but now I need help perfecting the script. If you can I request you browse the site with both Internet Explorer 7 and Fire Fox. This is only to ensure what problems are experienced with what browsers. Feel free to mention your opinions regarding the ads placement. I know of a few issues that are happening when using Internet Explorer and I'm already waiting for feed back from the developer regarding this issues. The login box on the left hand side for some reason won't allow users to logging but fortunately it brings them to another screen that allows login to happen! I also noticed in Internet Explorer you have a hard time logging out because the drop down menu is placed incorrectly. Please if you see any more issues I need to address I would like to know about them. Website: www.blogengage.com Thanks bbrian017
so you're doing something like digg and mixx right? i'm not sure it's a good strategy to compete in this segment, but design wise I have a few comments: you need a logo and a title near the top. the taps are way too big, and the font in the tabs is a bit too simple... by the way, how about getting rid of the tabs altogether, and putting "top users" etc on the front page? the look is a little too airy and too light, maybe a darker green for the headlines? also, i think the snippets should be a bit longer, you want to "engage" the reader right? other than that, no major beef, the screenshots are good, the inside pages look good. good job with the engage graphic also.
I 100% agree with the header tabs they are extremely ugly! I'm still waiting on some support regarding the resizing of them. Like you said it would almost be nice to even get rid of them all together! The template was made from another person but I'll be sure to pass your comment on to him regarding the nice engage button! With the amount of fixes I suggested to him he can probably use some sort of thank you or complement! I agree the site is way to light colored. Is it to the point where you're having a hard time navigating the site? Yes I badly need a logo and it's on the it's of things to do this week I just need to get around to starting a competition here at Digital Point! I'm happy you made a comment regarding the amazing screenshot you get of the bloggers blog. Is that not an awesome feature or what. When I first seen that implemented I was extremely impressed! Thanks for the info and it's all taken very seriously as the site is still in the early dev stages. Heck pligg is still beta!
Thanks for all the advice and comments. It's hard to implement them all but I do take all into consideration. Thanks again and keep the ideas coming!
