Evaluation/Ideas wanted
Posted by James Chambers on February 17th, 2004

Hi all,

For about two years, I have run a dating site. It is not linked to any
affiliate sites, just something I threw together with my own scripts.
Well, it has been getting more hits lately and I want to do something to it
but I don't know what. I am going to redo the backend scripts to optimize
them so the time is right. I know the current site sucks but I am looking
for advice such as color combination or recomended template or tecnique.
If you want to check it out, just put a www in front of the domain in my
email.

TIA

jc

If you don't know...

It would have been so much easier just to give the URL.

First impression of your site, I like the *look* of it, quite clean and
bright.

First thing I would do as a matter of urgency would be to move the
navigation links to the top of the page! I'm viewing in 1024x768, I'm
guessing that in 800x600 the user would have to scroll just to visit another
page!

If you're getting busier, you must be doing something right!

Sell it to Charles!
Before you do you could make your font size larger.

Yeah it seems to be a new policy It only started happening two days ago
when responding to a news article I pointed to a script that obfuscated
email address's

next thing I know I can't login, they changed my password to "password-
spamblock"

an article I sent an hour earlier went through fine complete with url.

I just tried adding my homepage as a custom header and that was allowed
through
