[REDESIGN]: My personal website. - Zektai - Jul 25, 2013
Hi everybody,
Let me make this clear for any staff who come across this thread: I'm not advertising or offering a service with this post, I am just looking for feedback on the functionality and design of my website.
Now that's out of the way... I've finally come up with a design that I like for my own website (and hopefully I'll be investing in a top-level domain for my company), and I just wanted to check if anybody came across any errors or had any suggestions to make the website better.
The website is www.kanelincoln.tk.
Kind regards,
Kane.

Nope, I don't make forum themes. I just do front-end web design, sorry!

Thanks for the feedback! I like making clean, sleek designs. I want a modern web, not an internet from 2001.

Looks okay. Set a max-width for that message textarea, though. It's not responsive at-all; would be nice to see.

Thanks for the feedback. I am currently trying to learn how to make my designs responsive which is why this website isn't responsive at the moment and I completely forgot about max-ing the textarea, thanks for reminding me!

Looks pretty good king of a retro design but it's pretty static which for small website for this is fine but could be easy to fix.

Tbh, if I needed a web designer I would not go to a page that looks like that. It's very bland with no immediate attraction images to catch the customers eyes. Experiment with some js scripts and add some slides and a portfolio. 3/10

Thanks for the feedback. I completely understand where you're coming from, but the reason why I've made the website so simplistic is because when I start designing something to the best of my ability, unless I have a layout or guide as to what the page should look like, I'm such a perfectionist that I can never keep one design.
I have made pages in the past which incorporate JavaScript using parallax effects, content sliders, ect. but I continuously kept changing the design. Maybe in the future when I'm a little less fussy I can make a more creative website but for now the minimalistic, direct approach will have to do.
Thanks again, though, for the feedback.
