    Too green

    Posted on Jan 21, 2010 at 7:57 AM

    This site looks a bit too green and slightly boring. Here a few things you can do to liven things up:

    1. I would either add some more color, or add a nice large colorful image to this design.
    2. Lose the small arrows in the corner of each box, they are too overpowering.
    3. Your footer feels a bit odd. I think it's mostly due to the navigation being repeated at the bottom exactly as the top. Try formatting the bottom nav differently.
    4. Things are looking pretty segmented. Try dropping the white background in the bottom three squares, I don't think you need to have it there.
    5. Think about adding some gradients to the top and bottom green bars. Give it some more dimension and make this come alive.
    6. The most important thing to do to this site is bring some excitement to an otherwise fairly boring subject.

    These are just my thoughts, I hope they help.
