Hey guys, now that summer holiday is here i have had time to sit down and do my layout for my site. The purpose of the site is a review site, i will review software, hardware (well what i can), websites, and games. I really like the first one (the orange one) but i did the second one (grey) just as another choice. Nothing really working yet, just this cause i dont want to spend time on something that might not work. Look for usablilty style everything. I want you to tear this apart, find everyfault, if you dont like it let me know, i wont take offense to any comments, i need this to be the best it can be. Reply with changes and please vote for the better one.

-Mike

Orange looks better. I like the simplicity of both designs though.

Also, what font are you using in the top of the orange design?

well, depending on how much work you want to do, you could create a logo in photoshop with the site name and some kind of tagline, and then alternate the logo backgroudn according to what game you’ve most recently reviewed, or a particularly good game that month or something that way, you have a nice logo and title and tagline, but the background changes every-so-often.

orange one, but imo both of them are too simple. I like more grey colors, but orange looks better.
