My new site !

Hi its been a while since i post!
been so buzy , 2jobs getting back to one job! new girlfriend getting broke working more haaaaa lol i even thaught of stopping graphic design !! !!

anywhay i thaught i should change my website so here it is its still under constrcuction i know the white text in the middle banner is hard to read :P
So i would really like some comment and at the same time theres a new sketch section sure would like to know what you guys think about those sketchy work !

http://www.slixart.com

ps: and people like or dont like so be honest even if its hurts :( !!

I like it. It's not bad at all ..but there's some things:

- watch the grammar in places... thee's a "whit" on the splash...
- the splash could be removed alltogether IMO
- why is it so huge? Opera is showing me a 1.1 MB load on the main page?? Is something wrong with my browser?
- maybe some sort of navigation for the drawings? prev - next sorta' thinghy?
- definitely some pics for client portfolio

I would really look over the type, it seems as if a little kid wrote it. There are many mispellings and just plain "non-words" all over.

However I do like the layout and design, just clean up the text.

Who's your target audience? If your aiming for professional, then this needs to be cleaned up a bit.

As said before, the type. If it doesn't pass a spell checker, it doesn't belong. I think the type needs to be looked at for a different reason though. The white/black gradient is nice, but only on LARGE letters....like "slixart" on the splash. On anything smaller, the text blends with the background (like its cut in half) and readability goes way down! There's 2 ways to fix this. One is to alter the background color. The other is don't make your gradients so extreme...use like off white to a dark gray or lower the scale of the gradient. Like your first "enter" text, that looks good.

Two more points about the text though. Don't use "graphix", it looks cheesy. Also your navigation is too dark. If you want anything bright on the page, this is it. This leads your visitors to your content and this is what you want them to see!!

One last complaint, and thats the "definition of design" which is usually thought of as the #1 "usless trendy noob cheesy filler content" that should be avoided at all costs. Put your latest artwork there, or some info about your self. Something useful to your visitors.

Overall though, a pretty nice design.

.hi
Thanx mihai and yankeebeen for your coment
-ill correct the spelling (well someone sgonna help me ) thats for sue just didnt have the time : P sorry

.....................
thanx
if theres more comment about the site or the content plz dont hesitate ,
Thank you again

yea graphix is part of my logo right now coz sliXart , graphiX anywhay..

I see what your saying, though it doesn't quite come off that way. I think if you want people to recognize that relationship you need to put emphasis on the "x". For example you could put some fancy curly graphics around it, or just a curve (like "~") through the center of the it (similar to the lines at the top/bottom).

yea maibe , thaught i think its gonna look to buzy if i put stuff around the x
we wont know were to look ,but if i have time ill try to come up whit some thing !
and i updated the client page now you can acces the website i done in the past .!
and do you think its good idea to post my sketch even if theyre not my best drawing ?

Maybe just re-doing the whole enter page? and then you could make the whole GraphiX thing a little better? I dunno just what i would do? hmmm lol
