Minor Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 unreadable so tiny, increase the font size ! 2 love this , but on load the wait icon have other color than the bg 3 why the corners are different , ,make theme bot rounded or sharp !? Serious Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 get red of this glass reflect style cause it's not seems to be good anymore New Idea on italica-home.jpg 1 use this dark gray color for the links at the top navigation & for the icons "professional , modern & works everywhere" it'll be much better than the black ! Summary:
Nice work, love your choose for the colors & love the grid in the bg ..
two main problems for me:
- tiny font size in the footer and the sections under the slider ..
- so empty spaces in general .. specially in the footer
that's all , Thanks. Good Luck
Serious Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 This looks weird, leave it! and do it better Positive Feature on italica-home.jpg 1 I like this! New Idea on italica-home.jpg 1 It would take some space for description and arrows. Summary:
Overall it looks good, but I can not imagine a good use. Maybe he wanted to add a normal blog posts.
Anyway wish you luck in this and future designs.
Minor Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 I do not known, but to me this it`s a little strange the rounded corner of the box to the right corner of the image Minor Problem on italica-showcase.jpg 1 I think it better to stay at the bottom of the page. 2 I liked the button " Go Up"... Serious Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 Try using the same value for the rounded corners of the blue box to the field and login 2 ... but is better only if your page is very long vertically Critical Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 I think better to use rounded corners on every corner. 2 Much blank space, maybe a little more work on the logo, without overdoing it. Positive Feature on italica-home.jpg 1 In my opinion the pictures used are not passing the real message that should be passed. Try to look for other images. Something like this: http://portugues.istockphoto.com/stock-illustration-5225749-professional-network.php http://www.proclipart.com/preview/3d-clip-art/ca-2596.html Positive Feature on italica-showcase.jpg 1 I really enjoyed this background, works well with white. Summary:
In the whole is good, just some observations according to my notes.
Minor Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 Why not use standard icons for Facebook Tweeter and Youtube? Their colors, shapes and general look are well know. Im always looking for tweeter logo or facebook color scheme with "F" letter when checking site for social links. Serious Problem on italica-showcase.jpg 1 Align right (as in most forums, lists etc). Best put it in top and on bottom of list. New Idea on italica-home.jpg 1 Dont use this static. Try to use dynamic one - http://davidwalsh.name/dw-content/top-of-page-jquery.php.Remember that some blog post are long with comments. So only those who will be at the bottom of the page, will be able to use this button if you keep it static Summary:
I know its called Italic, but i really dont like those italic headers. Also font family is illegible when entering blog view (i checked on website). Latest news should be on top of categories not on bottom of right column 2 colums for blogs are to wide, its not good read so many characters in 1 line Hover over 3 main colums on landing moves bottom part little down - anoying. On blog page you mixing Text - Archive small height Popular post - pictures with a lot of height Comments - text with small height Flickr - photos no text with normal height Chaos :) Keep similar functionalities together - Popular post on top (no need for such a big photo), then flickr photos, than categories and archives and tags (tags are to big right now)
Not keeping consisteny in those italic header. We have some with italic , some without. To many different font families , use popular ones for readable parts of service
Link text color afer hover is white - cant see link text.
In Popular posts, clicking on whole grey area (showed after hover) should redirect to post view - better usability
Archives got + before month name. Cant click it expand it. So if user cant, he shouldnt see "+"
In general, to many different styles, different typography, in general i see potential, but to many differences, and to wide column for post part make it not usable for now. Keep working on it, background and some graphic parts are very nice.
Minor Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 You cannot read the copy because of the background Serious Problem on italica-home.jpg 1 Alignment issue try using a grid Positive Feature on italica-home.jpg 1 NIce 2 cool image New Idea on italica-home.jpg 1 try to decrease the opacity of the pattern . I think it might attact too much focus and you want you visitors to look at the content more than background :) 2 I understand you want to use icons but these icons are too strong in my opinnion 3 I like the rounded corners idea but I think the corner radius is too large 4 try to add some blue in the logo as well Summary:
