    Hi all,

    Thanks for all the critical feedback you provide in this forum. Based on the feedback I received for my website http://www.SitesOnNet.com (the feedback was that the site was totally cluttered up and had information overload), I have totally revamped the site layout.

    Now the site is lean, fresh and has a new look. I have separated out the Directory and News sections, there by providing more real estate space for each of them.

    Kindly take a look at the site and provide your comments/feedback. Appreciate that very much.

    Hi,

    Maybe it's a bit too simple, You should attach a CSS to it and it will look much nicer!

    Good luck

    Thanks. It was too cluttered before. So now you are saying it is too simple ? ...hmmm..ok. I kida like it..but you may be right...

    BTW I am using all CSS in the site...at least for the fonts. May be you mean use complete CSS for the page layout and navigation bars?

    Sorry I wasn't really clear.
    I meant it in the way of adding more colors.
    You could manage all the layout by CSS aswell, it would be a good idea :)

    My personal opinion about your site is NOT TOO BAD... Looks very good efforts.

    My Suggestions are
    1. A good Logo
    2. Some Catchy Punch/Tag Line
    3. Some cool header background.
    4. Some kinda mouse over effect for links, Different colors for links and headers, categories so that user can distinguish between them easily.

    All the best mate...

    By the way which script you have used for this site? Can you please do me a favor and drop me a PM with URL :) thanks in advance

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I want to reply to some of the comments...but I am too tiered now.. need to get some sleep. I will take a fresh look at the messages afterwards and respond.

    But I do very much appreciate your critical comments and feedback. Thanks a lot. It is a nice team out here.

    OK, I am back :)


    Thanks. That sounds encouraging (better than the feedback I got for the earlier version).

    Those are very thoughtful and useful suggestions. I will put some efforts towards that. The site is still in its infancy and I think it will have to go through many round of improvements before it settles down. Suggestions from users like you and others definitely helps for that.

    Initially when I started working on the site, I wanted to try to make the site bakend kind of transparant to the end user. i.e. which language etc. is being used. But I am sure anyone who is web saavy can figure out. Can you give it a shot and see if you can figure it out? I am just curious. Thats all. Otherwise I will reveal it.

    Oh, BTW what does PM stand for? Not sure what exactly you mean when you say "drop me a PM".

    Appreciate the feedback from you and all others. Thanks much.

    I think the site is too 'text heavy' and basic. What I would add is a colored gradient background on the header. It'll make the site 100x more appealing ;)

    not bad, but it seems like it needs some life, maybe color some yellow or something. Maybe green? I don't know just needs some life. But other then thats GJ.
