[...] Finally, the colour palette consists of appropriate shades. Blue, Navy, Maroon, Grey, etc. Here is a simple drop selection from the blurred image. Here is an image I was saving until the end; Its the before version, as you can see. It’s a good change. A huge improvement from the previous site, which looked like a news site. Hopefully this will be a reflection on the presidency.

I agree, capturing the attention of the viewer is important, but with too much information you risk confusing them. I know I was slightly confused with what I was actually being sold.

Overall, I think the site works and hopefully with some of the suggestions mentioned it will continue to advance.

I’ll be sure to keep an eye on it!

Thanks a lot for this critique and de-constructing my work. Yes, I agree with you on many part of this post but we have been able to get the success with this one which was our aim.

As per the standard practice, your points are valid but at times, breaking the rules work you know :).

For example, your suggestion on header is good and better but when one goes to inner pages, I wanted them to focus on the content more than the header. So, the less space it take, the better it will be.

The large red banner was kept that way because I wanted to grasp their attention in first 3 seconds and wanted to tell them what this site is all about.

The bottom half of the page is busy but was not sure what other way, I could have been able to place it.

Anyways, I really appreciate this post of yours and will try to implement the suggestions you mentioned in this post.

thanks again.

I just found your blog today because of the photo editing tutorials. I’m a hobbyist photographer and I enjoy web design so I think your blog is great.

The design changes you’ve suggested for the WP Remix template are spot on, this is evident by the clean look on the after photo. Your after shot clearly highlights the action items intended for the viewer where as the original design I find my eyes jumping back and fourth looking for a place to land.

Well done, I’m enjoying your site!

I enjoyed reading this deconstruction, like I do many of your articles. It’s always nice to get someone’s insight into a design.

Thats an angry response, that makes very little sense. You should try and control yourself.

Moving on…

BULLSHIT!, Its just YOUR opinion. This website is a pitiful attempt for you to gather attention to yourself. Get a life. and stop wasting my reading time with your nonsense, its almost like that pepsi rationale. RUBBISH
