It's not bad, the quality, but I hate this type of themes.
You pretty much just copied the layout of the existing site. I wouldn't call it as much of a redesign than a reskin.
With it, you also introduced a number of obvious ux issues.

You should also hold off on making a mock up until you're done

Not available for work at this time. Apologies for any inconveniences.

Can you point out some of the big issues you see?
I'd go with a large Facebook logo, smaller side icons, smaller text for the languages, and put the languages under the other links, make the other links centered and perhaps separate them with hyphens?

" Sign Up - Log In - Messenger -
------> (centered) Create Ad - Create Page -

Keep at it mate looks pretty good so far.

The facebook logo seems alitle alone. Other than that Simply an amazing work. Keep up the good work!

- In the sign-up area, it make's no sense to have a repeat email box when there's no repeat password box.
- No signs of account recovery options
- Zero hierarchy in the layout/design, everything is the same size.
- Login area up top makes absolutely no sense.
- Picture of the golden gate bridge in the bg serves no purpose, also doesn't help sell the idea of 'Meet people around the world'. If you want to keep it simply due for aesthetic reasons, at least try to justify it.
- Date of birth entry shows no format of how it should be entered.
- Male/Female options look awkward as all hell.
- etc...

Other than that, there are also a number of design inconsistencies. I hope you'll be able to spend some time to figure them out and refine them yourself rather than having me spoon feed everything. As a tip, simply go through everything a few times and double check all the minor details to make sure things like wording, alignment, style..etc.. are the same throughout the whole design.

I agree with every with everyone's comments.

Heres something new: I feel like the footers font size is a little too large, the footer kinda blends in with the body. Perhaps make them a little more distinguishable?

I think the male/female option is fine.

Thank you I appreciate this. And I wasn't asking you to spoon feed me, I just rather have someone with experience tell me the biggest issues. Sorry if you felt that way.

Thanks again everyone for your feedback

Design is subjective. What he has to say might not necessarily be the most accurate representation of your work. Don't take it too seriously.
Looks great so far man, Very clean and takes info for better marketing. Good job!

I've seen his work and I know he knows what he's talking about. I'm not at the least bit offended, I'm still trying to learn.
Plain, no flaws. amazing <3
Design is subjective, but then there are also basics.
With time spent in designing, eyes start to immediately recognize good, bad, avg. stuff.

I suggest continuous practice. Good luck.
