Concept: New Website for The Random Lines
LogoIt does what you want it to do, the only bad point is that the logo is on the top right, i would always place it top left.

Concept: Website making website
MenuOther than the menu, there isn't much i would change to be honest.
I love the banner and the footer.

Concept: Supplier of broadcasting supplies - Webdesign
KeywordsYou have stated the keywords on the right will be elastic, whatever that means, but if this is made in Flash, keywords won't really make much difference will it not, as search engines can't read text on flash.
I like the design though, and really don't see much need for the use of flash myself.
Its clean the way the client wanted.
-
Thanks for the review. The elastic means: "when the mouse comes near the keyword it attaches to the mouse like a magnet".

Concept: Web Designer Portfolio
Move content upI would move your content up.
As Nate has said the slider isn't as wide as the rest of the site, so maybe a suggestion from me would be to make the slider a little smaller, right align it, and bring your welcome text to the left of it, as i like the text :P
Other than that, its really nice.

Concept: Ultimate Gaming
ContentLooks great until the content.
The content on the right, i would put along a small row on the bottom, there is no real need to have other companies logos so large on the site.
I would use that right hand side for more things, like, 'latest reviews, 'latest news' etc.

Concept: Pubforce: Landing Page
images behind the mainI would get rid of the images that are behind the main image, no real need for them.
Other than that the design is good. Personally im not a fan of Olive Green used that much, but thats just me, not a bad thing for the site.

Concept: portfolio website
Show off some workFor a web company i think you need to showcase at least one peice of work.
I would also work on your footer, try and get more into it.

Concept: Le Roo Creative
Menu?Your going to need a menu are you not?
I would also have some text explaining what you do, even if it just one simple sentence.
I would also have a big call to action button, maybe saying 'fix picture now' or something.

Concept: portfolio website
ContentMy thoughts on this are as follows :
Move the welcome text up to the top where the big 1,2,3,4 is.
Do more with the logo, doesn't work for me.
More emphasis on your work than your quotes, have a small section below your work, maybe include a twitter feed etc there too.
Make the arrow point out your work, its what catches the eye first on the site.
I like the background, the denim feel is deifnately in. The layout isn't too bad, just some small changes and more emphasis on your work is needed.
-
if the quote is something I feel like I live by why not have it on the home page? The self portrait is my work that is why I feel like it is my work and introduces me. I would have more work on the home page but that is the point of my two pages dedicated to the work. Thanks for your input though guys! More feedback is definitely welcome :)

oh and the meaning behind the numbers I wanted to number them like pages of a book and I really though they look visually interesting. are they that bad?
Dena Bushnaq 49 -
I have no problem with the quote, i had something similar in my first ever portfolio too. You just don't want people's eyes taken to that before anything else.
There is nothing majorly wrong with the numbers, they just kind of look out of place that was all.

Concept: Bodhi Snowboards
reflectionI would lose the reflection.
I thought the first B was a D at first too, probably because the bottom corner is cut off.
I don't know what it is but this doesn't say snowboard to me, more for a well being centre or something.

Concept: Logo for pub, bar or after-ski
snowflake and fontthe font and snow flake imeddiately make me think of some sort of femine product, rather than a bar.
To be fair to you, its a fairly girly name for a bar/pub :P
-
haha, I guess you're right.. :) could it perhaps suit better for skis made especially for children?
Magnus Fossum 160 -
yeah probably.
Alan Horne 2051 -
thanks, I'll change the concept a bit. though it would have been a lot of girls on that pub :)

Concept: Website Design for Window Cleaning Service
videoThere is no real need for the video on the site, are people really going to want to watch a video of people washing a window?
I would keep the top as it is, and bring in 2 more similar prargraphs likes the 'do-it-yourself'

Concept: Pizza Site Design
header and menuI would look at changing the header, the little thumbnails aren't working for me, and the grey on the menu isn't for me neither.
The rest i like.

Concept: Theme Force v1
textYou got way too much text on there.
Bigger writing on the header, saying exactly what you do as quickyl as possible. At the moment people will look at that then stop reading.
The main content, needs to be a little less wordy, of have less text with 'more' buttons. I would also look at the padding on the text on that area, make it a little more.
I like the images on the header and how you done them, very nice work..
-
Thank you Alan, all valid points and I've worked on them, update coming :)
Cheers

Concept: Website redesign for Sports Framing company
FontsFar too many fonts, you should try sticking to 2 fonts, 3 at the very most.
The layout isn't too bad, i just think you need to work on the header and the background.
-
Agreed. Still looking for the 'right' font(s).

Concept: Website redesign for cippodesign.com
contentI would look at showcasing some of your work, no point in having a web design company and not showing off your work. You want people to instantly want to work with you, and the best way is to showcase your best/latest work.
The search box blends too much for me, if it wasn't for the magnifying glass, i wouldn't have known that was a search box.
I would give the main content a little gradient on the sides to tie in with the footer and header too.
Integreat your social stuff to the footer instead of a button too it. Having a blog or twitter ect on your homepage would also be good for SEO.
Sorry if this seems like im picking apart your design, as in the whole its good, just needs a little treatment to really work.
-
- Yes I have to work on the content part to show my stuff. I'm thinking about it and I'll come-up with an adjusted version.
- I'm not sure about the search box.. I might take that out and put something else there
- As for gradients, I was thinking about something. You'll see the adjusted version.
- Yes well in my hurry I forgot to add buttons to my most used social media websites :D
Thank you very much for your comment. It really helps!

Concept: Restaurant Wordpress Theme / Template
footer textThe text on the footer needs to be more visible, it blends too much with the wood at the moment.
I would maybe look at making the image on the header larger, as the area for the logo is large at the moment.
Nice design though and i really like the reservations on the right.
-
Thank you Alan, on it ! :)

Concept: Grassy Blog Design
menuI would look at making the menu more visible, at the moment the menu items blend in a little with the background.
I would also keep your padding the same all round. On your content items, the padding on your read on button has to be the same as given to the image and text at the top of the item.
If you look at the padding top and left of the parrot, you will see that its no where near the same for the button.
I like the desing though, very clean with the focus on the content.
-
Hi Alan, thanks for the review!
Yes, I agree with you, I think I didn't pay enough attention there. Also the read on text is not aligned center, lazy me!
Good call on the image and read on padding, thank you!

Concept: logo design concept service ..... what area can be change?
LogoFor a logo design company i feel the weakest part of your design is the logo.
Other than that, i wouldn't change a thing.
-
Agreed, the logo is really weak.

Concept: Logo design for Markov Studio
concept 2 for meI would choose V2, i like V1 but it looks to much like a super hero symbol for an art studio, lol.
It owuld be good to see you work from 2 and add some colour and design to it.

Concept: The Porkers Website Design
You need to emphasise what they doIt took me to read the event packages before i knew what the company done.
I would work on making the banner illustrate what they do more.
Other than that you have a nice working design.
-
I like the illustration idea. I did a new concept with a little smoke in the header. What do you think about it?
