    Ok, this is sort of a game that'll help DPers to improve their website.
    This is how it works:
    First person(that is me) will post a website URL. Then the next poster will post one thing that he/she HATES about the website. And also, he/she will post his/her own website URL so that the next poster can comment on it. This will continue.

    Good posts will gain reps.(at least, i'll try my best to read through all posts)

    Only constructive criticism please!
    @mods:If it's in the wrong section, please move it. I was not sure about where to place it...

    My website:

    I hate it when people use incorrect wording on their website

    Your artice say "Precisely about 10 minutess" - either it's precise or it isn't

    Hope that's constructive enough for you!

    My site next - 1st site in my sig

    hate is such a negative word, I would prefer to say what I love about a design, though perhaps for another time and place. Here goes!

    I dislike the line-height spacing in your paragraph text, too gappy.

    here's my newly launched site, please be gentle: :) http://creativeherb.com

    The logo. Not exactly the whole logo, but the part where it says: Image Hosting. I don't like the blue-gray coordination.

    The java script or certain script at www.imght.com does crate a bit problem.

    Gives me an error saying "your browser is not supported please continue at your own risk." I am using IE.

    Ok, I really don't like the scrolling text - looks unprofessional. At first blsuh it's unclear what the site is selling. When you do figure it out the bland, generic layout makes me unsure I'd trust the company with hosting my site.

    Ok...i don't really like the logo,header and the layout.It needs to remake.
    Your web layout is too plain.And the position of the content is not quite right.It needs to reposition again.

    Ok, I think we all (myself included) need to be more specific when we reply. Telling people 'it needs to be remade' or ' I don't like the layout' doesn't really give us much to work with.

    If we give each other specific reasons why we don't like fundamental elements of the page (i.e: the logo is hard to read, the colors clash, etc.) we will all benefit.

    For example:

    On the website http://freshe.st/ what jumps out at me:

    The text: 'adj., fresh-est Novel; different: a fresh slant on the problem." gets lost in the background. Also saying 'THIS BLOWS' on your website isn't really a message you want to convey to your customers (I don't know if this is a language thing, but as an American when you say something 'blows' it means it is the opposite of something good.) Unless you are being ironic - which I doubt - this is the last thing you want your website to say.

    Also a good idea. Here's a pretty straightforward one:

    http://www.wildlife-magnets.com/

    Site description: illustrations of wildlife on collectible magnets.

    IMO simply telling someone you don't like the header doesn't give the person any direction to change.

    What don't you like about the header?
    How can it be improved?

    If you aren't specific this really is of no use to anyone.

    I dont like the fact that you have 3 different body font sizes looks very unprofessional. I would recommened keeping everything at verdana 12 point. JMO

    Your site looks good! I don't know whether it's meant to be like that, but your header kind of gets cut off in the extreme right hand side. And the Chat Life button on the extreme right is on plain white background, so doesn't look good. Otherwise, it looks awesome!
