Same Old Boring Design. Any tips?

1

You know my site Designers’ Hub. I thinks its pretty plain. Do you have any suggestions to spice up the site? I want a full remake over. Try to make it look more 3D, round and smooth etc.

I would like a site such as http://www.sony.com/beinspired/, http://www.digitalabstracts.com/ and http://www.k10k.net/… i like that kinda theme…

It would really help if you give me some suggestions.

pixelmorder: About that unflux thing, get over it. He dropped it so I don’t see why you can’t. If you have a problem with him then ignore him, but don’t slander his name in your posts just because you have a dislike for him.

dreamer: I like your current site although I admit it can be confusing to navigate the first few times visiting. I really don’t know what you should do for the next version, but I do agree with EG that the sites you chose for inspiration are a bit trendy and played out. And I agree with unflux that you should browse the web and get inspired, or take a walk and get inspired :slight_smile: I think you will be more pleased with your site if the idea came to you instead of people giving you ideas. We can always give ideas/critiques and such after the layout is created, but the layout itself is totally up to you.

i like your current design, but I’ve heard a lot of people complain
about the navigation. I agree that you should just surf around
and get inspired.

At some point, you will be and knock it out real quick.

dreamer, how about coming up with something new instead of following trends. Those sites you posted are nice, but they’re played out.

I don’t like the sony site, and especially not ‘be inspired’ Because that is the Siemens slogan since at least 2 years. And this is really lame… :slight_smile:

Well, whatever you do, dont be “inspired” by unflux’s site… he’ll take ur head off!

Anyways, I like the design, I am very minimalistic myself. As far as navigation goes, people expect the nav to have big signs pointing “NAV IS HERE!”. hehe, look at my site, people complain about my nav and it’s right in the open.

Inspiration is great, but total originality and craziness is even better.

That’s just my two cents.

Hey, what happened to the laptop and the fly ? :slight_smile: I’d say, browse around, be inspired, personalize it, …

You like minimalistic style of design… Well, let me tell you something; those kind of sites are sooooooooooo hard to navigate.
