Original content, photo gallery, news page and I am planning to add a blog and forum at a later date What do you think? Any suggestions to make it better? http://www.discoverthailand.biz/
Thanks for your reply and directness , which part do you think makes it look like its from the 90s? The design, header, footer, content etc? What would you do to make it look like its from the 10s?
indeed it needs changes. i think the navigation might just look good if it were on top horizontally. so forum link will be noticed right away.
Thanks for the feed back and suggestions so far Anything is possible but what changes would you suggest? What colour do you suggest?
I don't like .biz extensiosn but I can overlook that. The header graphic is nice. The one at the bottom is badly cut, you should use the features of a png file with alpha channel transparence, make it glows, easy with photoshop, I can do it for you if you'd like. I don't mind the green as it is my favorite color with blue, and this green theme is good looking to me. You should clearly modify the colors of the adsense to match the theme (more green, hooray!) In your article page, as well on your homepage, use text-align:justify I think it looks better if the text takes all width, other might disagree, but newspapers do that. There is nothing to learn content-wise about thailand on your site. I know because I lived in thailand for a significant amount of time and I'm returning to live there in a few months, so over the years I've read quite a bit, and the information presented in your site is really poor, but I hope it is only because it's new.
Cool excellent suggestions, thank you. I will work thro all of them. In regards to the content I used Indian Writers Company for it but I had to quickly rewrite most of it as it was very poor quality and a lot didn't even make sense. Congrats on your planned return to TH country, Im sure that you are looking forward to that. I too lived in TH for over 10 years, first running a fast food company and then running a Prawn Farm, so I have lots of good content that I will be adding as I write it. The main focus of the site will be the forum once its added. I hope one day to build it like Thai Visa which would be a massive job to achieve but I think if presented professionally it could take off as an alternative In regards to the footer, yes I noticed that it was cut a little badly, how much would it cost for you to do it with the glow?
I'd do it for free, in exchange you could register on my new site in my sig and post a top x something only if you want, otherwise i do it for nothing, up to you, but it's an opportunity for you to try it.
Please send me an email via the contact form on my site, so I can give you the updated graphic, I don't know if it will works better, if not I can do small fixes to it, just ask.
the concept looks less attractive. However, the info is complete. but it makes me want to visit thailand. hehe
Thanks for all the feed back. I have changed the domain name from BIZ to ASIA as was suggested and will move all the content across shortly http://www.discoverthailand.biz/ to http://www.discoverthailand.asia/ The new site has a completely new design http://www.discoverthailand.asia/ And the forum has a matching design as well http://www.discoverthailand.asia/forum/ What do you think of the new design? and how does the forum look on your computer / screen resolution / browser? (the reason that I ask is that the forum header is made up of 3 separate images)
Just got a promo video made up for the forum [video=youtube;li0H1b7gwuI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=li0H1b7gwuI[/video]
