    Love the User Experience, it works really well!

    A couple notes about your design.

    1) Tone down the glossiness of the logo, try using different color combinations, the light blue is not working at all next to the black header

    2) Your Call To Action for the blog is a little off, it doesn't really feel like a link / button.. Maybe use a less angled, less blurry screen capture of your blog

    3) Tone down those buttons for upload and download, I literally have to focus to tell what they are.. There is a lot going on in that background gradient for such a small button, take a look at a new font-type .. I would suggest Neutra-Text Book.. Or Lucida Grande..

    4) I know lots of image hosting sites get away with not using text to sell their product, but you may want to explain what it is you are doing, why you dec4ded to do it, what you plan to do in the future? Or even better.. just explain some of the auto-share features that you have etc.. The page is definitely lacking content, I had to scratch my head for about 4 seconds before I realized what it was that I had landed on


    Mad props on the User Experience side of things, you definitely made a good site!

    That's great to see another image host. Specially I am pleased to see your Server specification. Good Specs for image hosting. I hope you will provide a beneficial service to consumers.

    Besides what Shimurai wrote, your RCuploadBlog image link is too big that it is extending your page to right. Making your footnote uncentered and pulling your Register buttons with it as well. Besides that, great site.

    This website looks great :) If I were you I would reduce the size of "browse" and "start upload" buttons, also improve their colors: "make them less bright. I think you should tell people the maximum size of pictures people can upload. You may also point out the advantages that people would have by signing up in your website. If you have any advantage in comparison with imageshack or another know website, make it clear on the homepage. I like your header and logo, no changes needed there. Keep up the great work!

    good hosting server ...light design , it may be better to change the css colour for the sign up form and to put a small link under it (for registration )
