    Too Early + Type

    Posted on Jul 18, 2010 at 10:24 AM

    I feel as this design is only about 5 stages from a wire-frame ?

    the white on white about looks od

    The glow on the background i feel makes the edges too soft

    Type doesn't appear to have had any treatment.

    padding seems a little wide on the left and right

    1>2>3 i presume you haven't done anything on yet ?

    Gradients on body bg maybe just try with a solid colour not transparent

    I think this could really improve if with more consideration to the type

    Hope this helps

    Cheers

      Nick,

      wireframe >> Yeah pretty good guess there. I'm new at designing (I prefer coding) but this is for a friend of mine and she needs the whole package. I'm trying to learn as much as I can so I put it up early to see if I was on a good track or not.

      white>> I put the shadows around it to stand it out, but since I'm going to check out the color scheme a little more, I'll see if I can change it.

      type>> It's for layout, more 'does it work being placed here', this is the first version

      padding>> I think I trusted the 960 grid a little too much. I'm going to widen out and go by 'feel'

      gradient>> Gonna try that out

      Thanks, got my vote!
