Getpastit.com - Updated

[notsonormal]

How do you guys feel about my forum/start page? I updated it a TON. Made it a lot cleaner.

Start Page: http://www.getpastit.com
Portal: http://www.getpastit.com/index.php

Most of the features are only viewable to registered users though, but you get the idea.

I made the welcome block pretty big with inbox, sent, quick links, etc all clean. Have notifications of new mail, buddies, etc like myspace.

What do you guys think?

Any feedback/suggestions?

Thanks!

... no need to create a new thread for an existing review... just bump your thread when you update your site...

btw, i don't see much more changes...

[notsonormal]

start page is brand new... you kind of have to login to see the major changes

Any comments? good or bad?

[notsonormal]

anyone have some constructive criticism besides nex being grumpy?

ha ha... grumpy... you don't know me, i can be worst than that.. lol

bumping your review will not help you, but will bring some comments like "don't bump for no reason!"

START PAGE looks horrible (check page in firefox)

The portal page is too busy. I suggest removing some features.
95% of your viewers probably won't even bother reading / viewing / scanning this page for it's content ... it's just overwhelming.

You have a big gap (padding) at the top of the page (about 100px). Try to remove it.

you have 2 login blocks

I think it looks unique and like you put a lot of work into it. Nice job.

I agree with chris.
A negative Point is that the Quicktime Plugin is needed. That scares off a big percentage of users immediately.

cheers, ze :raucher:

Thanks guys. It needs quicktime? What??? what page?

Get rid of the fake and idiotic pseudoinformation bar at the top of the page. Not that I hate it or anything.
