    Background

    I dont like background - it makes your lite design harder.

      grey or blue gradient for example. Design should content 2-4 colors maximum and tones. If more it will be disorganized and so on. So you can use color of registration or header. more stylish will be grey gradient i think.

    bottom padding and footer

    Posted on Feb 18, 2010 at 2:19 PM

    This is a really good start. It's a fairly clean layout and conservative. Here are a few things that I am suggesting for improvement:

    • I think the site title identifies the purpose of the site, but I'd still like to see a sentence or two in the main section that explains a little more and will grab the attention.

    • I think the profile pictures should be prefaced with a title of some sort. Are these satisfied customers or singles who recently signed up or what?

    • The main text area could use some more spice and some bottom padding.

    • The footer is a little weak. Maybe you could add a testimonial to this section.

    I would only include name and email on the initial sign up. Once they click 'Go' then they would be prompted for the rest of their info.

    1. I agree with andy that the footer needs work. I would add padding around this so the text isn't so close to the content. Maybe add some other content too. Maybe active users, success stories etc.

    2. The copyright in the footer feels very very out of place. Kind of randomly jammed there.

    3. Also as Andy mentioned, the user images need some kind of explanation.

    4. The sections in the main content could use images or icons. Something to spice it up a bit, it feels too static.

    Getting there...

    Posted on Feb 19, 2010 at 8:07 AM

    This is slowly getting better. Here are few things I would do:

    1. Work on the registration bar. Make the blue part come up over the top and add a slight drop shadow.
    2. Choose a different color than the gray charcoal for the background, maybe a very subtle gray?
    3. Take the logo off the picture
    4. Make the picture thumbs smaller
    5. Make your text more interesting.

    Good work so far, just keep tweaking this a bit.

      I'm still not sold on the colors. Too washed out or something, not quite sure what it is. I think the image will look better without the logo (Obviously the rough photoshop job with the water is just temporary). I think the content area is a bit of step back. The bar below the thumbnails of the images is too much, same with the icons to the left of your text blocks. Keep workin' on this.

    Black doesn't look good.

    Posted on Feb 19, 2010 at 11:28 AM

    I think you could try with a gray background instead of the black.

    Also the text columns seems unbalanced to me.
