Just looking for people thoughts on my design
i like the layout and only have few remarks : - The "All our bathroom include" div needs to be aligned - The over use of gradient (grey gradient) and shadow make the site look quite old to me. This may be personal though -The title overlapping the logo makes it a bit difficult to read -there seem to be too many different fonts

How to spice up my header ?
Thanks again for your replies Following your advice I placed my logo on the left I like Weedy's idea and tried few alternatives. I'm not so sure though for the text does not align on the right Is one of those more readable ?

How to spice up my header ?
hello, thanks again for you replies. I tried several things those past few days like going for something all white with the same layout but I always come back to this greyscale design despite its slightly "boxy" look. Also I defaulted to a shorter About page for the homepage. i'm currently wondering about adding a graphic element, either : - placing a logo on the left and right-aligning my name or - blending a logo within my name, all centered. But that would kill the h1 tag Will take me some times though, i'm really not a graphic illustrator Also, if I previously did not place my logo on all pages it's because I feel weird using a logo for my own name... I feel it look pompous in some way

Review my design : am I on the right track ?
Thanks for your replies, I do appreciate @Jane B : sorry for the typos. yeh by Cursus i meant "courses" what do you suggest for the clicking icon revealing photos and information at the top right of each page ? The idea was to make it subtle just not plain obvious @ Mantis: yeh i'm really far from being done with that project. now I'm wondering where you read "Updates" I'm actually submitting >>> http://guillaumeb.com/prototype/ The term "Update" is used here http://guillaumeb.com/

Review my design : am I on the right track ?
Hello, I'm currently working on a new design for my personal website. >>> http://guillaumeb.com/prototype/ I'm not finished at all but I need to get some feedbacks though for I'm going to something i'm not too familiar with : constrasting colors. Overall I want something rather simple, even minimalist, but I'm thinking I could also end up with something a bit colorful. What do you think ? Is the website readable enough for you ? FYI I'm coming from this grey scale design : http://guillaumeb.com/

How to spice up my header ?
Thanks for your replies, I do appreciate @Sash : It's a nice idea. When coding the website i purposely went with grey tones after being tired to observed so many different in color shade on different screen calibration. However subtle touches of colors like this seems like a good idea. I like the ribbon approach @DanielWLand : it's not the first time I'm told the landing page is useless. I guess you're right. i have to get rid of it and default to the About page. Thanks again

How to spice up my header ?
Hello, I find my website a bit dull. When coding it, I mainly focused on its responsive layout and did want to keep a minimalist approach. Yet, i feel something may be missing, maybe in the header part of each pages. Not sure What do you think? =>http://guillaumeb.com Thanks

Which of those 2 domain names should I go with ?
Hi all, I bought 2 domain names streamlog.net poprock.co I have been using streamlog.net for quite a long time but SEO left aside I was wondering which of those two you find more appealing. I should add that this is for a small personal Tumblr, so nothing really "important" in terms of meaning. Is the .co more confusing ? Does the first one even mean something ? Which would you go with ? Thank you very much.

Skeuomorphism : your thoughts on my design
Hello I have been reading lots of articles lately about skeuomorphism, why people like it and why other hate is. I have a dilemna. I have a personal website which some might consider as being skeuomorphic. I spent lots of time on it and thoughout what I read I get the feeling it could be perceived as outdated. http://guillaumeb.com On the other hand i like minimalism (i'm a Windows Phone user) and so I came up with a new design: http://guillaumeb.com/beta/a/ But then are there way too many graphics in the first (current) version of my personal website ? Is that a problem ? After all, it is a relatively small and readable website so should I care ? I guess my problem is that I like both designs but I need some external point of view. Would you be likely to tell me what you think Thank you very much

Small Styleswitch hiccups
Hello, I'm doing a small linkblog for myself and i'm encountering a weird behavior. I based the blog on Tumblr. It will mainly be used to bookmark links and annotate them. There are two stylesheets and a small JS to switch between the two. By default, notes are hidden, clicking on "Expanded" will reveal them. > See it in action here Now it works as it should on webkit-based browser (ie Chrome, Safari, PlayBook). Yet in Firefox and Opera, switching the CSS to reveal the notes create a small hiccup to the left and I don't know why. I checked the code, the div width and all but I can't seem to find where this comes from. Do you have any ideas ? Thank you

Review my work in progress
thanks for coming back to me I do appreciate Iniially I was looking from something rather small and simple. At first I concentrated on a floating left sidebar which is 300px wide with the main content 550px. This gives us a total width of 850px. I thought this would be pretty standard and fit for many people. I could have made the main area fluid indeed but again I was looking for something small. I dunno, on my 13' MBP the font is not that small

Review my work in progress
OK thanks for your replies i do appreciate. i see what you mean with the logo, i'll try other options. BTW do you guys know a good way to have a floating div on the bottom-right but with smooth transitions to have a floating search engine. I tried this one : http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/floatbar.htm but I have jerky results and nothing smooth

Review my work in progress
hey I'm currently working on a new minimalist/retro design for my small Tumblr lifestream. It's still a work in progress though Streamlog.net BTW are there any safe color that would more or like display alike in any monitor calibration. My website, made on a Mac, is supposed to be beige but it can turn grey in one Dell screen... Anyway thank you very much
