Hi guys and gals,

 

I was wondering if I could get a bit of feedback on this site.

http://www.jevonz.co.uk

 

I've still got a little bit more to do; reduce loading times, wait for the actual text content to be sent to me, add some social media buttons. But so far, what do you think? Yay or nay?

 

Any feedback / advice would be more than appreciated.

 

Cheers

 

Sam

Hi Sam, I'll provide some feedback for you.

 

I don't mean to shoot a hole in what was probably a very well-considered choice, but the huge 'Jevonz' logo is really, really in-your-face. Obviously it was designed to be and I appreciate these kind of approaches (they're somewhat trendy and modern), but your attempt kind of hurts! Could just be me, who knows.

 

The white navigation link hover effect doesn't work with the rest of the design. Instead of a simple on-hover colour change, perhaps try another effect such as a CSS3 animation, to liven things up.

 

I really think your gridContainer would work better if you eliminated the tiny amount of padding to the left and right (thus getting rid of the white space either side) and perhaps insert discreet borders and a box-shadow. Try this effect (play with the colours, of course):

.gridContainer {
box-shadow: 0px 0px 15px #373737;
width: 90.1071%;
max-width: 1300px;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
margin: auto;
clear: none;
float: none;
border-left: 1px solid #262a2f;
border-right: 1px solid #262a2f;
}

With the footer, I don't think having a white bar underneath the backBottom.jpg image works well. Instead, like with your header image, the backBottom image should touch the bottom of the page and not be interupted by a bland white footer bar. I would suggest positioning the footer over the bottom-half of this image and changing the footer text colour. Try it out, see what you think.

 

Hope this helps.

I echo what throzen said...

 

Also the general body copy ( your Lorem ipsum) is very small in comparison to the other page elements and it gets "lost" on large screens, it's fine however on small screens.

Your website looks very simple. Hence set menu properly, Design attractive logo, and add some eye-catching graphic in background.

Hi Sam,

 

Have you thought about rotating the logo 90deg and have down the left hand side? It might balance the page out a bit better.

 

Cheers

It will be better if you decrease the font size of the page title which almost captures whole page and for the content we need to scroll down...
