| 1 | There is no obvious separation between these widgets. Maybe try making the buttons same height with the textboxes and align them horizontally, so you will have only 4 rows and also a clearer indication of what social network each button belongs to. Also you might wanna move these widget sidebar just next to where the content starts. |
| 2 | If this is the full size image (zoomed in of course), the font size is too small and hardly readable. |
| 3 | This menu doesn't look good. It's not aligned with the banner,
it's not aligned horizontally, the shadow has nothing to do with the rest of the layout and the spacing between the menu items and their container is too big. Also I don't like the rounded corners and the color scheme. |
| 4 | I don't understand the purpose of these blue and gray bars. I know it's for artistic look but they just don't work. Try removing them and enlarging the white container instead. Also, the corner radius for all the site elements is too big. |

| 1 | This quote takes way too much space. Try to keep only the owner's name and put it smaller as it is to the right of the quote. |

| 1 | These two buttons are the main way of getting your customers to use the product. The one on the very right side of the site will never be used from this page as it's not too obvious and also for most of the people will make their heads turn 90 degrees to read what it does. On the other pages, though it's the only button to do its thing, the same principles apply. You want it to be the first thing a visitor sees. The positioning and the orientation are very bad for its purpose. |

| 1 | This page looks a lot different than the others. Also, there's no highlighting of which page I'm on. |

| 1 | This white space could be used for placing your social networking widgets sidebar. |

| 1 | This is hardly readable. If you enlarge your white container, as earlier mentioned, you could put this in it and align it with the rest of the main content. |
Hello Flavio. The design you're presenting is a good start, but you need to work more on it if you want to make it look professional. Try letting the colors of it to be given mostly by the pictures and maybe the background. Don't insist that much on making everything look round, and don't add so many colors on the main content container (blue and gray bars on a orange background). All the best mate.

| 1 | One example of an alignment issue which doesn't help your design stand out and look more polished. |

| 1 | The graphics used could of a different style or just smaller. |

| 1 | Size reflects value and importance. Is 'We're handy' the most important thing on the header? |
All in all the design looks really interesting. The right things seem to catch the eye of the user, but there are some basic design mistakes, which if avoided, could produce a much more polished and professional looking result.
Check your paddings/margins, make sure the alignment of all your elements on the page is air tight and every element has a synergy with one or more of the rest of them.
Check your whitespace usage - there's a fine line between too much and too little white space, which I think sometime s you're crossing. One example could be the menu on the left side. Think about if it should be there by itself or if you could include some more elements to make it part of the general layout, rather than it seemingly standing there by itself.
Try to use appropriately sized and styled buttons/graphics. The ones used at the moment reflect a more childish and non-professional nature.
I like how it's simplified from earlier, but the problem now is that it seems a bit... cheap. The pictures need to be upgraded, especially the header with the pen.
I would also get rid of that side-scrolling like button. I hate those things.
Hello,
Best Marcin

Clean Deaign and BrandingI really like the branding and the logo in the background on the pages. Also, one of my favorite elements is the "We're Handy" that is large at the top. Almost has an Apple feel without looking like a rip off. | |
