    Re: Test template

    Hello there,

    sorry to have to say this but these are the type of pages that I close without looking any further as there is no content. The idea is usually just to make money out of links but does not pay off in the long run in my opinion.

    Cheers,

      Cheers,
      Thank you for your opinion. There is no content yet, because I am just working on the template first, to get it right before adding content.


      Any other thoughts from anyone else? I am open to all and any suggestions

        Re: Test template

        As a template? My honest opinion... too dark. If I am visiting a site of this nature 'Make money from home' I am probably already at my lowest of lowest and feeling suicidal.. so showing me a dark balck/maroon website will tip me over the top! Brighten the room up and bring a smile back and some hope to me...
        Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.

            Light 'whisper colours (Colors) lose the black for sure. Whisper blue? just try several.

                    Template 1 is much much better

                    Template 2..... That's a definite definite definite definite NO NO!

                      Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they are no good.

                            I have been working on a new template, after taking your advice (which I really appreciate) and I wanted your thought on how it looks so far. I have not titled the page or anything, since it is only a template at moment, after I get it to where I want it, I will do all of that.



                            I am stuck on how to finish it (I am having such hard time figuring out what would be the best color to use as backround,as well as blending the right colors) so if you have any thoughts or suggestions, please let me know, anyway, here is what I have done so far:

                              Looks good to me. Just a matter of opinion, I'd make the green behind the links a little darker than the background. I'd also increase the size of the "Make Money From Home" header a bit. Also, you might try putting a drop shadow behind that header. Simply duplicate it, make the top copy white and the bottom copy black, offset just a hair.
