Title: Web site - main page comments
Post by: Rico on September 01, 2008, 01:30:52 PM
Hey gang.  Now that I have changed the main page around some, I'd love to get some comments going on the posts there too.  Especially a few on each podcast.  I know you all comment here about the shows too, but some new people might only view the main page.  You could even just copy and paste your comments from here to there!  Also, feel free to comment on any of the other stories I post there too!

Here's a quick link to the main page post about yesterday's live podcast.  Comments away!

I love the new main page, it has a modern smooth feel to it. For some reason as well the colors look more bright and sleek. I wish i had a bigger monitor (like a 17 or 21 inch (oooooooo) as i reckon it would look even better. Really like the way all the seperate feeds are laid out and. Great work Rico.

*Puts on web developer hat*

Ok I like the content layout, I like the colors. My only two points of criticism are with the site header.

1. The 'subtitle' (where it says "the longest running star trek & sci fi podcast online") looks kind of 'aliased' a little, for example, the "O" in online looks like it's getting eaten by the background color. Maybe making that text one or two point sizes bigger would solve that issue.

2. The header image (that changes): Very cool, however if possible, I would increase the height of those images to match the height of the blue part of the title bar (looks about 100px high). Right now it looks like it's lost and floating in the middle.

Those are my only two very small nitpicks. Aside from that it's very well laid out.

Thanks for the comments.  The header with the name and subtitle was done quickly and I will fix it up soon.  As far as the header image on the right, I prefer it centered like that.  It's a standard banner size that way.  But I'll think about your idea.

P.S.  But this thread was actually to encourage comments actually on the main page under posts I put there.  ;)
