Hi rjabonline, i thing it won't be that place, where i will buy anything.

I thing this design is not enough convincing and clarified. The images have a very poor quality.

I'm sure that You can do much better than this

rjbonline · 10-20-2006, 01:57 PM

Thanks. I'll try again.

Yup, crappy images.

The layout isn't bad, but like they said, the graphics are grainy, very pixelated. It looks very unprofessional, and your viewers may be hesitant to purchase anything from a site that looks unprofessional.

Your background images on both of your pages look like speckled easter eggs, a plain white background would suffice, and even look much better.

Also, the menu bar is filled with useless buttons, the only 2 live buttons are the Home and Ebooks buttons, the rest are just going to confuse some less than intelligent users, and believe that there are alot of those. You should have those buttons link to a page, or get rid of them.

I have revised the design and color scheme somewhat. Is it any better?

Some of the buttons haven't been activated because the site is now being developed. The other buttons will be soon functional

I think the logo is still not right ... somewhat hard to read, and not bold enough. You also need text on your home page for lots of reasons: search engines, telling people what the site is about, etc.

Looks like you have quite a few E-books ... so keep working on the site... and good luck.

Hi

Here are my first quick impressions of the site:

1) Loads fast
2) Logo needs to be a little bigger/more crisp
3) Too much blue
4) Images don't need to be that huge
5) Need to improve image quality

Good luck, I'd like it if you could let me know when you're finished, maybe it will become my favorite ebook place : )

Thanks for the advice, guys.
