Probably. But after Beauregard placed a screenshot of my site the counter
incremented (BTW, if I had his URL I could have his design in similar
presentation in no time).
Perhaps it is a coincedence, but perhaps your assumptions do flaw
To understand what you consider good, I clicked a link to your site. I was
testing my page for high res and had 1280x1024 at that moment.
Your home page - the quality of the graphics is impressive - I mean it. Yet
to mine mind the page is far from being user-friendly. I never do
generalies. If I critisize I do details:
1. That red-yellow fonts on the tombstone are very cute but practically
unreadable. So after several seconds of straining my eyes I just conceded.
As I said quality should match the purpose. If these words are not supposed
to be read, but are just decorations, then I withdraw this comment
2. I tried to go past Home Page but it was un-clickable with no apparent
navigation. It took me several moments to realise that one should hit that
little spinning disk. True, there is a text instruction in small prints
there to click the disk. But this type of navigation is only good for the
author. If navigation needs text instruction then it is not a navigation.
You probably are aware of the reserches showing that a surfing visitor
spends not more then 2-3 seconds to decide whether to get into a site or
surfe elsewhere.
With that sort of home page a surfer might get pissed off well before those
2-3 secs.
Unless he/she is mesmerized by the tombstone per ce which as I said is cool
3. As I said the picture of the tombsone is made professionaly. But it
puzzles. I thought you are in Undertaker's business. Or do graphic design
for funerals.
4. After all these talks about resolution I was not impressed that at
1280x1024 the whole page collapsed into the upper half of the screen leaving
the bottom half look like a black hole.
Again this is just my personal opinion, but unlike yourself I will not get
pissed off is you ignore it
