Wetlook World Forum

That's why I take the time to give some feedback on the design of the website: Because the pictures are worth it.

- On the frontpage, there are two menus. The left one doesn't do anything, so it shouldn't be there. The right one contains just a few items that don't really need a pull-down-menu. The items could just be shown on a static menu.

- After selecting an item from the menu, you have to select it again in the main window. It's a waste of time for your visitors and may be unclear for not-so experienced users.

- From the previews, there is no way back to the main page.

- The text on the main page is out of date. You say full-size pictures will only be shown to members, but they are shown in the preview too.

- You send text to the browsers status bar. Bad idea: You take away information from the user.

- The main page, which should give information and options, mainly shows a picture. It's a nice picture, for sure, but it's not functional.

- It appears you have committed yourself to using flash. Oh well...

- If I understand correctly, a paying customer will have to wait between 0 and 24 hours before getting access. That access will be lost 24 hours later, meaning I can make no planning about when to visit your site. It might be I have access the next evening, but it might also be my access has expired by then.

In my very personal opinion, any interface should draw as little attention as possible. Attention should go to the contents of your site: Your pictures.

Of course, you have every right to make your site to your own liking and ignore any advice I might give. I'm just trying to help.
