Re: Software free-Softee.net

Your header image is just weird.

The black background is oppressive. The scrolling stuff is annoying. The "peeling page" effect in the top-right corner is silly (and hard to read). The search box doesn't work.

Your XHTML is invalid.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

The header is certainly ... different

It's a good start, despite the XHTML errors.

BUT it is, as already mentioned, on the 'busy' side. Perhaps drop the scrolling text and pad the *actual* content away from the banners and adverts.

Everything seems to sort of merge into one currently. Try to make the listings appear more separate of each other. And try adding a lighter / different background to each alternate listing to make them stand out a bit more.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

Code aside. It just looks way to busy.

I hate scrolling, and this site hasn't changed my mind on that, I'm afriad.

The "blackground" makes your content look lost. Once again, I don't know where to focus my attention, I am unable to differenciate between your content and the adverts. Seperate these out.

I don't know what the point fo your site is. I had to search for why I was there, underneath your silly page peeler thing. get rid of that, or at least hide your ads under it.

You need a better colour scheme and some space. Nothing to drastic to fix.

You will also need to fix your coding errors.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

I must say that these are the worsted reviews of the site from all review forums. But I am not disappointed. I now I have XHTML errors but much larger sites have them, this forum too maybe not so much but have them. I create this site in the different XHTML editors and every one creates some mistake in the code. You may not believe me but I even corrected some of that errors. The difference of the heeder is what I was counting on someone like it someone not and about scrolling text this thing will be corrected in the near future, but for now it stays.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

Dude.... what?

Let me get this straight. You wanted to know what we thought of the work you've done.

It would appear the general concensus is that we think the design is wierd and your code is naff. If you want your ego stroking, you've come to the wrong place.

Sorry your site has proven to be unpopular here but that's the way it is. Deal with it.

No I think you did not read my previous post well or maybe I did not use the right words. I just sad that it’s good to hear different opinions of people who don’t like my design. Because of this I will certainly try to do something to improve your opinions. Maybe not now but later centairly.

If I mis understood you, I'm sorry. It's clearly your English that's not so good but you're obviously doing the best you can so no worries.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

Yes my English is little rusty, as a matter a fact it was never really good but I am trying my best and some day it will be perfect.
And believe me you don’t now how hart to involve is in the forum when you don’t now to spell correctly.
In my country talking and spelling is the same thing.

Re: Software free-Softee.net

I really do not want the comment some of the posts here.
Yes I live in Serbia!
And about the speech I don’t think you can understand that it’s a little complicated from your point of view. Because your language is totally different.

LAST OFF TOPIC POST.

It scares me. People have such a narrow angled view of things - and terrible spelling.

Speach - Speech.
irish - Irish
anyones - anyone's

Bad Grammer:

This sentence would translate to this without the apostrophes.

Written Way: You lot don't so much speak the language as chew on it a little and gob it out

What it means: You lot do not so much speak the language as chew on it a little and gob it out

I'm sure it would have been a pretty pathetic come back, even if I could make any sense of it. I suggest reading over what you write and then decide if it makes sense.



Minute 44...I suggest these: http://www.ucalgary.ca/UofC/eduweb/grammar/
and

Re: Software free-Softee.net

Think it is still far too busy. It takes the user several minutes to actually figure out what exactly the site is about, where you logo is there is a picture of a rising sun for some unknown reason?

Separating the ads from the actual content would also be a good idea, they are a bit too mixed together for my liking.

Try and fix those errors as well, people don't realise how important having validating code is.

Don't get put off by these comments though , every comment is a chance to improve your site, i would listen to these people, believe it or not they know what there talking about
