Not feeling the light grey splatters on the background. I like the text though.

[manny-the-dino]

^Agreed. It seems a bit too much.

[emberfly]

I think it's too big....

I mean mean, if it was an image it would be totally cool if it was big a beautiful like that, but yours is just text :/

I would like to be able to see the text and the content all at once.

I also think the text is way too big. It looks like the layout is going to stay kind of simple... so I think you should just make the top image smaller so that it doesn't seem so disproportionate.

[lucasnotreally]

So somethings telling me the top logo is too big haha...


is that the only thing you think is too big, or the text links (add, message, etc...)

and im doing the background for the bottom mike, i just hadnt put it on their yet when i uploaded the mockup.


here is the second update: http://profile.myspace.com/lukeredeemer

but ill probably be changing alot since so many of you dont like it,
thanks for the critique.

[lucasnotreally]

i would make it go down further, but its already taking for ever for the background to load, and making it bigger would make that worse.


and i see where you coming from about the texture, the top is staying like that, thats how they want it, and i dont think it looks bad.

the bottom darker part i might change though, the texture for that part currently is the same thing i used at the top just way darker.

also, im thinking about changing the headers and top bar with the links from gray to a brown color, think that would look better?

I agree about the texture stopping midway. You should make it cover the whole page, imo. If the header image is the way they want it and they are happy with it, then that's what's important... when you're doing work for other people and they don't have great taste you sometimes have to compromise.

The comments are way off for me. The videos scroll box ends and then there's a gap before the friends start, but the comments are wayyyy below the friends and to the left. Otherwise I like the setup of it. And I'm not in support of you making the headers brown.

[lucasnotreally]

i dont have the background repeat is because part of the header is connected to the background too, so it doesnt stretch the page out.


also, dont pay attention to the friends and comments, i know theyre effed up, thats because i dont align them until i put it up on the clients page so it will fit their number of top friends and comments.

Putting the background on repeat won't stretch the page out You should be able to get the texture you used to seamless repeat as your background.

Oh, sorry, I didn't know about the comments. Just thought I'd mentioned it lol

Just cut a chunk off the black part and call it a day. But then it wouldn't be perfect. Nevermind.
