Need some critiques on some of my design? Probably best to disregard the websites. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I'd keep the font consistent, Times New Roman and Arial side by side doesn't usually go down too well. The header could've been better thought out instead of a harsh orange bar with 'portfolio' written across it, whose portfolio is it? Try and communicate what it's all about just in the header. It's nice and simple which is key, i'd give some contrast by drastically changing the background colour.

Thank you for the feedback but I was more so wanting feedback on the designs at the bottom of the page not on the web stuff, but thank you for taking the time to write something.

You need to work more on your banner, then it's much better to have a distinctive logo. I suggest you to use one font style only. I don't like times new roman, better use verdana, myriad..

I think that your design is a good starting point, now you need to concentrate on working the design together, as said using different fonts is a little odd looking. I think you need to work on your header, try and make the design flow better.

I wonder if anyone has actually read your posts?!

agentxcell · 16-09-2008, 03:17

Kemp.......you said it best. I am pretty sure everyone has just ignored what I have to say. Thank you for reading (not to say that all feedback is not good).

So aside from the web stuff I would like feedback on the graphic design. Thanks.

I think you should experiment with different fronts

agentxcell · 17-09-2008, 23:58

Did you mean to say fonts?

Kemp · 18-09-2008, 05:20

still hasn't read the question properly though! I'd comment but i don't know what to say!

Apparently everyone has been too busy to bother reading your request.

I like images 1,2,4,5,6 & 10. I don't really care much for the designs in between. Image 4 doesn't quite get a reflection look to the text if that is what you're after, but in general looks good. The perfume ads are not to shabby!

agentxcell · 22-09-2008, 03:14

I had someone tell me the perfume ad was too sleazy and cliche which last time I checked is what sells. I could be wrong.

ok... here is my 10 cents.

The perfume one.
The image re-touching is poor. Also they are sat on a Ikea sofa. Doesn't really say High-Quality does it??.... There are creases on the fabric. Bad blurring/cloning on the bottom of the sofa. Random reflection on the text. Need lighting (directional and the like) work.
Concept ain't that bad.. quite cliched but not bad...nothing exciting though... execution VERY Poor. Learn to re-touch and work on the typography. Basically tighten up your skills...

There i am done...

agentxcell · 23-09-2008, 02:52

So then I guess I should re-touch the photo based on that last one.
