This is a work in progress, so i will update on a regular basis.

I am redesigning the landing/front- page of my website,
as its extremely outdated and need input from you guys.

Let me know what you think of this new concept.
Every input is welcome.

Note: The text and heading are just placeholders and the wording
sounds like crap, please ignore that for now!

You can find the very empty old version here: [link]

Nothing to say about footer now ofc will see that in next version. I think that spacing is now alright. I would however edit the top part (that "about you" paragraph) the content typo could use some more breathing there and the featured work font could be same as menu and headings one. These are just minimal changes that I think normal user (who doesnt visit your site 25 times a day) wouldnt pay much attention to. Awesome job till now!

Hmm. Maybe for the bottom (where the reflection is) add a small line of opaque black to no fill to enhance the reflection. Otherwise, it's looking nice and clean! Aweshum.

No itΒ΄s even better, the new background gives another style to the site, more closer to yours. Well done

Looks better. Maybe using smaller spacing between objects so it wouldnt look that empty and youre done I think

Thanks mate, spacing is horrible between some elements.
Should be fixed with 2.3 though, take a look!

I think it's great, especially compared to the old one.

Along with some of what others have said, I think ribbon titles aren't totally working, specifically, the terminals. They appear to be arrows, in the body it appears to be be pointing towards the sidebar, and in the sidebar appear to be pointing toward the body. I think I good solution might simply be to reverse the ends, so it looks like a more classic ribbon - with the arrows pointing inward, toward the titles. Or, just a plain diagonal cut, which would keep the overall "forward-moving" feel of the design.

I think you should either stay with much gradients and more dark look like in the header or make it whole minimal and clean. Right now it is something between and I am not sure which way you wanna go. But I am sure you will find the way out of it.

code2 In reply to LukasKokoska [2011-12-28 19:07:08 +0000 UTC]

Yeah same stuff like BBT pointed out. Its kind of a mix right now.
I guess i will get rid of the "glossy" look on the header and also redesign it.

EnzuDes1gn [2011-12-28 07:22:34 +0000 UTC]

Don't like the use of the web 2.0 style gradient highlight ( used in the main header ) .. other than that looks insane

code2 In reply to EnzuDes1gn [2011-12-28 19:06:17 +0000 UTC]

Hey thanks man. Do you think i should take out the gloss totally ?
I guess it would look better to stick with a flat style like you pointed out.

Will try how i can redesign the header to look more unique.

Good, I like the whole style of it, however, I donΒ΄t see that the brown background you choose fits very well with the theme... Otherwise, the full site looks very clear without missing any detail, like a personal webpage should look if you want to tell future clients that you are a pro.

code2 In reply to emey87 [2011-12-27 19:44:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks man, there have been quite a few people "hating" that BG and they are right about it ^^
One of the things that's going to be changed for sure once i get to redesign of the "nocontent" area.

Great to hear some valuable constructive criticism. Exactly what i need.

Take care and have a great year 2012!
