This has good structure and colors. some minor change can improve this. see my notes. Hope this helps, good luck!
Hey, " Modern sleek design " is the objective as far as I can tell this is not a modern or sleek design. 1. - Logo (not a big fan of the text effect on the ball) 2.The picture with the guy holding his hand out it's one of the most used pictures in business design since 5 years ago also the rest of the pictures , it's not a problem that you use them but you could somehow make them stand out from the rest of 10000000 sites that use them (be creative) 3.Over all design says nothing to me about sleek
Anyway, just trying to help , if you want to know more about specific issues let me know.
Regards,
MEster
Overall the theme looks bland. The white space isn't particularly well balanced and the typography is also unbalanced. I could go into more detail but your reviews for others are all three line affairs so I'm not going to spend my time pointing out all the problems with it.
Your main reason for rejection though would be copyright. The pics you have look like stock images and you won't have the license to redistribute these. The main one is definitely stock but you've retouched it slightly which will also result in rejection.
Yeah I agree with Emma, your reviews are poor, hence why I haven't bothered with reviewing your stuff... Not to mention this is by far the dullest and blandest looking template... Typography -5 Whitespace -5 Logo -10 Copyright -25
Maybe spend a bit more time doing something like wire framing before submitting an average template to ThemeForest, I believe they do give you feedback, might be best to spend more time reading their feedback and researching a little bit more on what it is that might actually work.
Thank you for your review !
The reason my reviews for others are all three line is because I'm a beginner in web design and I don't think I'm able to tell others what they should do with their designs.
However, I tried to help them with what I considered I could and others didn't already told them.
And the images are all free to use in commercial projects. When I sent the template to TF I sent the links with all the images and icons used.
And their feedback was "This File Did Not Meet Our Criteria" and a few links to where I can get help, including ConcetFeedback.
Hi Adri Adri, A lot of people feel like that at first with writing reviews. It's not a case though that you're telling others what to do but merely offering your opinion which is valid whether you're a beginner or not. We all use websites all the time and we all are affected by how they work and how they strike us visually.
I accept that some people find it harder to find things to say than others and it shouldn't stop you from putting your work up but please feel free to put more about what you think about other peoples work in your reviews. All thoughts and feedback is helpful.
They do say to try to do themes which don't exist already and there are a lot of business type themes which already offer what your theme does. It's important to try to do a theme which is much more unique in feel.
Maybe try to do a theme for a more niche area rather than business which is such a broad area. Maybe look at doing a theme for a PR company or a local government organization. It's easy to get a bland template if you're targeting too wide an audience.

| Critical Problem on 1.home_page.jpg | |

| 1 | Try any borders for images |
I think it have more work to do, before it will be approved on themeforest. They have high standards, higher than this.
Good luck.
| Minor Problem on 1.home_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Looks out of place style wise with the rest of the time. Move to footer? |
| 2 | I wouldn't have this here in the navigation - at the end if really required but for a business is it? |
| 3 | I think the images are too big. |
| Minor Problem on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | What are these required for? |
| 2 | big empty space |
| Minor Problem on 3.about_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Too much. Maybe have 1 or 2 at the end/bottom. |
| 2 | I feel this is the wrong icon. Maybe a " mark instead? |
| Minor Problem on 4.portfolio_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Empty waster space. |
Now I've bought templates before from TF for a business site and I wouldn't buy this. There is nothing visually stand-out on the home page. Empty waster space. Colour scheme I do like and I think it works well.
| Minor Problem | |
Use of the blueI realy liked the way you use the color blue. | |
| Minor Problem on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | These 2 icons, dont fit with the context of this page, for me it looks like the register form is secure and the login form is not secure.
|
| Critical Problem on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | In one form you used the label at the left of the input and in the other form you used on the top. I think you should choose one of those 2.

try to minimize the header section that contains the logo and contacts and you can make call to action more visible and have nice visual appearance because you need to catch the user eyes to this. Try to enhance the text above the banner, give its title a more big and attractive font. Put the 3 titles of the 3 boxes in background strip to make a contrast and also you can make a nice and simple backgrounds for every "read more" buttons and you can colorize them with the light blue of the logo. I hope my comments will help you to enhance.
This design looks VERY similar many other business themes on ThemeForest. I would say the layout is OK, but work on the typography, and definitely change the nav bar.
Hope this helps. :)
Thank you for your review !
nice layout but i think theres missing a bit of punch thats all
| Minor Problem on 1.home_page.jpg | |
| 1 | To much empty space. |
| 2 | With only few menu items like here, making menu so wide and big is not good. |
| Minor Problem on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | No consistency in buttons. One bigger than other Both are main buttons. |
| 2 | No consistency in labeling form. Put label above field or to the left , but keep it consistent. |
| 3 | What those icons means here? If i register, i will enter this site, so this icon is misleading user. Dont use icons like this if they dont have real meaning |
| Minor Problem on 5.blog_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Only 2 post on blog? Main feature of blogs are many post on one page, and scrolling instead of clicking "next page" every 2..3 posts |
| Serious Problem on 1.home_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Check this space, also space below menu and in many other palces. You're loosing to much space to make page longer. |
| Serious Problem on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | remove "your" , even "Enter" is not necessary. Check login form on right, there you have Username: label. No consistency, to much unnecessary text |
| 2 | again white space |
| 3 | again to much space |
| New Idea on 2.register_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Why not put here 2 fields "username" and "password" like on facebook? You have a lot of space in header for that |
| 2 | This menu is so fake...Register, About, Blog and Contact should be in top menu (where we have login, signup now) becouse those are secondary meaning links. On main menu we should have sth like "What we do" "Who we are" "Job offers" "Partners" and so on...More business links. Remember who visit this business site. |
| New Idea on 3.about_page.jpg | |
| 1 | You can say much more about people in team. Expierience, jobs, about member part, what he/she do in company etc. |
| 2 | This should be separate menu link or at least it should be on landing page. |
| 3 | You're not putting big photos and light one. Many business sites uses a lot of photos (becouse they nmormaly dont have much text to put ;) |
| New Idea on 5.blog_page.jpg | |
| 1 | Put this on top, |
| Other on 1.home_page.jpg | |
| 1 | This is just to typical, nothing fresh, nothing different. |
To boring, to grey, to typical. Ask yourself if you would have a business - would you buy this? My advice - google and look for some business sites...at least try to see 100:)
