    Hey Everybody,

    So the site is really mine but I work closely with them and a lot of my success will be directly related to how well the site does so....Please let me know what you think, we are trying to become the "facebook of fantasy sports".

    http://www.fantasycrowd.com

    Thanks in advance for your time and feedback.

    I agree.. although the main layout seems ok, I don't like the big image "join the crowd"/"we want you"). it doesn't invite to reading it at all, and it puts the actual content of the site down, which people have to scroll, and most people won't. I suggest you remove or replace one, so at least most important content is at the top (latest files/latest groups or whatever is most important)
    site is not bad at all but needs improvement


    hope it helped

    I suggest that you move all the blog content,latest file and group going up will be better.

    It all looks a bit crowded and busy to me, I find that people are drawn in by simplistic sites that do not have too much going on, there is some rule that people only read a low percentage of a websites home page, particularly belowe the fold, but as they delve deeper they read more!

    Try to keep the homepage less cluttered and grab people into the site by teasing them with what they might see if they explore further.

    your domain name is good. i am ok with the background design, it looks fresh and not complicated. overall is good. but site not enough traffic also you need to update your site always.

    It's great.
    Fix your image placement, think about proportional layout
    Improve your header
    The rest is OK

    Hi,

    Firstly, I personally don't like the color scheme chosen, the reason being, it looks more like a baby care website than what your actually trying to promote.

    Its good point is that it provides a good room for common sports lovers to interact and share what so ever they wish to.

    Also, people loving common things about sports or a sportsperson can join related groups. That's really nice. Overall a good website..

    God bless, Viji!!

    You might want to put a background to the buttons, like Home, etc, to they stand out a bit more.

    "About us" higher in the page, though I did find it and clicked through. More content on the about page, before putting a link, as I've not figured out what the site is, yet i am expected to click something first. Otherwise, good site!

    Your site is colorfull, this can be one thing that can attract visitors to stay longer in your site.
    Placement of objects is very good, I like the way you do the layout. I think you should resize the two big pictures.

    Looks like you have a great community/ability...but I think where you might fall down is in the size of some of the images vs. the content. Ie the login box is not as wide as the image on top so it looks "unprofessional". Same with the size of the other content boxes...would be "cleaner" if they lined up.
    Good luck

    Looks like we took some of everybody's feedback into consideration. I think the site is much cleaner and easier to use now.

    Check out the new New FantasyCrowd 2.0 http://www.fantasycrowd.com
