faviconYou should try to use your favicon image somewhere on your website so they can associate that icon with your website. For instance, in my bookmarks bar I use icons only. But, if I put your site in my bookmarks, I won't know which one is you by association. | |

| 1 | I'm afraid the color scheme is a little off putting. There are some great sites that help you choose a color palette. I like http://kuler.adobe.com more than http://www.colourlovers.com/ but they are both great.
Use sites that talk about the psychology of colors such as http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/design/color-psychology-website-design/ to figure out the appropriate color scheme for a torrent site. |

| 1 | This is an overuse of effects. Keep it simple. The best way to design is to look at other websites and draw inspiration from what works best. I doubt there is a website out there that you saw and decided that the drop-shadow, stroke, bevel text looked good.
Also, when using effects, make sure to tweak them to be more subtle. I suggest increasing opacity for some of those effects you really want to use.
If you want to ask for support, you should do it more modestly. Like at the bottom perhaps. Or on the about us page.
This font is too big. When some visitors come to this site they read this first. But, it isn't the message you wanted them to come to the site and receive.. it's only supposed to be a modest request for advice. |
| 2 | I'm sure you are still working on a logo. This really isn't a logo that demands respect anyway. Before you go any farther though, I'd recommend visiting dafont.com for some font ideas. If you want to go with a text based logo, then try to find a font that stands out. |

Too much too bigI think it would look better if you keep the "Welcome to Movie Zilla!" as large font, but then drop the size of "Movies!! ..." | |
| New Idea | |
New videos.Sites like Demonoid and EZTV are huge in the torrent community. Take some inspiration from them. What works best for them is they put the most recent uploads and newest additions right in the visitors face right away. As a regular user, it's easy for me to visit the site daily and be able to tell if there is something new I don't have yet. I suggest loosing the image and using that real estate for keeping track of the newest video files. I'd also steer away from adding too much information. Usually when visitors come to a torrent site they already know what they are looking for. So, keep the overflow of information on separate pages if you want to include summaries or reviews. | |
To make this site I'd suggest to take a full day off of development and surf the web. For at least this one day, take a big notepad and write down all the stuff you like (and don't like) about the competitions websites. What colors they used, the fonts (sizes, effects), check out their GUI structure, what they have in their footers, every last detail can help you build something that works for you.
Good luck and come back with the second mock-up for more help.

| 1 | Not sure what this has to do with Movies? |
| Serious Problem on http://moviezilla.ucoz.com | |
| 1 | That is a lot of information that makes the website look more intimidating. 95% of people on the site is not going to look any further than Categories. I would remove the rest or make them a drop down option. |

| 1 | To me this looks like a template that anyone could of threw up. I would try and make it more personal. |
The site design doesn't really look like it could be a movie review site.
The curvy interface elements can be nice on sites but it doesn't really quite work here. The angles are wrong. The rounded buttons on the left don't really fit.
The design needs a lot more whitespace between elements; it seems a little crowded in some areas. For example, the line height on alot of the text. Also the list links in the sidebar.
The site needs to be branded better with a better logo and header area.
The grey/blue glowing text in the content really doesnt work well; makes it hard to read, and just doesn't fit.
Make the "Download Unlimited Movies for Free" text link more like it's a link....maybe a button. You could move this up to the top green bar in the upper right.
Needs a lot of work, I think. The graphics and black background are turnoffs.
Site is detected as malware and browser does not allow me to display it - yes, I could override it, but I do not want take this risk ... bye
the reviews he left so he could post his concept are BS. So I suggest others not post reviews on anything from Tista Roy.
Agree
awe shucks... i read this too late... oi
