Hi

 

First, I am no designer and therefore even at my best attempts to try to create a professional and fresh looking website would not turn out the way i hope. So, i would really appreciate your help if you guys and girls could suggest me things that i should change on my current template. Its still incomplete though. I suggest not to pay attention to content right now, lets focus on general design for starters.

 

My goal is to make clean, fresh and colorful design to a page created for pregnant women and moms.

 

I'll attach my design by screenshot.

I understand you're going for fresh but that doesnt have to mean quite so bright and vibrant

 

comic sans is best left to comics

 

how about something like this?

It somehow looks better, thanks, but i dont know about grey background. I think it also needs some vector graphics

grey background? you're monitor must be getting old it's light brown

 

and a background should be just that: in the background - not so bright that it takes attention away from important content

 

well good luck

Thank you!

 

I was looking it at bright laptop screen and i didnt even notice the brown, it looked like grey.

 

How did you manage to tweak it like that anyway, it was screenshot and you tweaked it like it was a full css, lol.

just edited the screen shot in adobe fireworks

Thank you all for your views and comments, i have decided to go for a free downloadable website template that i am tweaking right now. Will be posting my tweaked one when im finished. Until that. Good luck to you all!

 

Heres the link to that template:

vector graphics? On websites?...I mean, I know its do-able...

What you mean? You dont like it?

 

I myself like it a lot when website has vector graphics... i guess its a matter of taste

I think you are confusing vector designed graphics, with bitmap graphics.

 

Vector graphics are just maths, whereas non vector graphics (bitmap graphics) are pixels. Its ok, we was all new once I think for a first attempt its ntb, but I agree with Dap - leave the comic sans to comic books (or comic book type sites at least)

I am total newbie on design... i still dont understand what you didnt like on that template Maybe you could explain it?

its not your design, its your terminology haha. I assume when you made it, you found some vector graphics, that you then imported into photoshop/gimp and saved for web?

 

Nevermind lol.

Yeah, thats exactly what i have done Lol, okay, i guess ill come back in few years and can have a good laugh in my own expence

We all do Best of luck and if you need any help, you know where we are

Thank you!
