New Site Review

[PlayItByBeer]

After my 'wildly funky' first site, please could you crit or comment on site No2 www.addotours.com. This one is closer to the norm and pretty mild in comparison.

Cheers,

Re: New Site Review

Nice site, Beer Dude. I like your images and how well put together the site looks. Great job!

Re: New Site Review

Hi, nice looking site. There’s a nice element of comedy with some of the animal images.
Couple of picky bits to have a look at.
On the main menu, you have to search to find the link to the next page. IE: it’s underneath the text.
Not sure if I have missed something? But couldn’t see a home button once inside the site.
In the image gallery, if you want to browse the images by clicking on the thumbnails. When it get to a long image you loose this facility & have to keep swapping back to the other menu on the right.
But overall I like the feel & style of the site. Its not what you would expect for this type of site, but works really well.

Good luck.

Re: New Site Review

Hi Chris,

You are dead-on regarding the buttons (one of little problems you notice 5mins after uploading a site) tommorrows problem now...
The gallery needs to be steamlined as i've gone to flash in an attempt to reduce or stop "picture thieves". I appreciate the comments about the style and feel.

The folks at the office will laugh because we have a over used expression "think out side the box" which in our line of work quickly became "drink outside the box" and little i do is to the norm...

Cheers,

Re: New Site Review

I like the site! I think you must be still working on it? On the Tours page the cards didn't fill in, and on a couple of other pages, seemed like some things were missing. I really like the pictures and the way you used them. My kind of site!!

Re: New Site Review

Thanks Mike,

Yes, this site as per my 1st is for a mate and i'm waiting on the content for a page or two.

We are presently on a fishing Safari up the South Africa coast and i have been promised the content tomorrow while sitting around the fire, sipping on a cold one.

Cheers,

I think it looks fabulous! Especially like "Mr. G. Raffe".

The image of the elephant stepping out of the frame is wonderful.

It all looks perfect!

Re: New Site Review

Hi PlayItByBeer,
I like your new design, I think your page is a little too big.
Some viewers have a small screen, so they will have to scroll a little bit, I think the message doesn't reach a potential customer if is distracted by searching for issues on a page or the loading is to slow etc.
I think you have plenty of room to re-size your page.
Also, a lot of people they keep their screen with the favorite option open, and the screen will be even smaller
Ciao

Re: New Site Review

Thanks guys and girls for all the comments so far.

If you are viewing this post, undecided if Blue Voda is the way forward.(as i was 2 months ago) GO FOR IT!!! If it can make a 'beer salesman" with almost zero web knowledge look alright, it will certainly work for you... and it's loads of fun being part of the BV family.

Cheers,

Re: New Site Review

I love it!! I like the way you think outside the box. Your booking page is great with the hands, the elephant, G Raffe, etc. Great Job. I like this much better than your first one!
