This is my first full template, and I would like to get advice. I'm not looking for an ego boost Any advice? http://www.addressmunger.com/test/CannonsFightClub/sefl/
Firstly try not repeating the same couple of words over and over again for fill in text - it detracts from looking at the design I suggest going to lipsum.com and using some lorem ispum text for a filler. The buttons are a bit too big, look at some other sites and look at the sizes they are. Maybe have a look at adding a footer too But it's good to see you're trying.
Good tip on the lorem ipsum. Just added that. I agree about my buttons. My brother agrees they're too big too. I'll think of what I can put in a footer.
I'm sorry, but what's the point of this post? Of course it can be improved. Take a hint from the above posts to figure out how to post. Can you actually say something helpful?
I changed the buttons and made them smaller. I also changed the background from pure black to #111111 because I think it makes it easier to read. Unfortunately I'm stuck w/ that blue and yellowish letters, because it's the site owner's premade logo color choice. What do people think now? Should I change the buttons more? Change the #111111 to something else? Anything else?
Moving to a whte background. From a usability perspective, colored backgrounds provide a negative contrast for reading and can cause users to leave. Id consider testing an alternative design utilizing white. craig
