My First Site for Djing

[LuuQ]

Hi Mark

My opinion about your site is approximately the same as Argos.

I never like when there's music on a site when I'm entering. If it doesn't start automatically, there's no problem. You should allow the freedom to your visitors, if they want to hear your music or not.

I like your menu buttons as they appear, but not the hover effect, which doesn't stop and irritates. The same with the line-inverting-effect when changing content

For me the font size is too big (for example in "Bio").

But as a whole, it's really not bad for your first try. I like the opacity-effects and the background.


Regards,
Lugae

Hi Mark,

I can give you my thoughts about it. It works fine with me, by the way. I use pretty standard WinXp/IE7 config.

First of all, I don't see the need for an intro page. It has no interesting or relevant information and serves no purpose. It also has a major spelling error: "MarkNickolas.com uses the falloing technologies and systems'. "

Then the music that starts to play when entering your (true) homepage: very annoying! Never ever have music start to play automatically, not even if you're a DJ. So after two irritations, my first reaction was to go away. Only for the sake of this little review I stayed.

Then from a design point of view: I don't like the different font sizes in the menu, just to make sure the titles fit in the button space. Just make different button sizes instead.

I also don't like your picture. Here I am at your site, and it feels like you turn your back on me, looking out of the website. Rather uninviting and not very "open".

I think you should improve some CSS as well, for example the HR and A tags. The corners of your design are a bit sloppy and can be better.

From a usability standpoint: content boxes with inner scroll bars are not so user friendly. You'd better let the site stretch as a whole.


So, do I like your site? Hm, to be honest not really. On the other hand, if it's your first site and you're not that experienced in webdesign and creation yet, you did a very decent job. Much better than my first site back in the day LOL.

I hope you don't feel offended by my remarks, just keep improving little by little!

Hi all

After 66 views and no responces makes me start to wonder if evey one is having this prolbem.

Or Is it just no one knows what to say?
Good? Bad? Just down right ugly?

Anything?
