Just started developing this site. Still adding content. What do you think about the design and visual aspects ?

All comments and suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Visually I really like it. The logo and graphics are super clean. The color combo of the site is really nice.

Of all the sites that I've seen pertaining to this content, I like yours the most.

The only thing Id change is make your logo clickable to return the user to the Homepage. I clicked on the jokes section and at first couldn't figure out how to get back without using my browser back button. But then noticed the "main page" link on the bottom. Its so common for website's logos to be homepage links that everyone will click on it before looking at the bottom of the site for the link.

Otherwise, a superb job in my opinion.

I really like the layout of the site. The navigation is very clear and everything is organised well. The colours used are eye catching and are used well with each other. Like 2020-Graphics said, try making the logo link back to the home page. That way your users can quickly make there way back to the place they want to go to.

I like it, but there isn't much attention to detail with the optimisation of images. Play around with your graphics package and with use of GIFs/JPEGs. Basically, unless it's a photo of gradient, a GIF will actually look better in my experience.

Cheers,

I like the site. Flows really nice. One suggestion I have right off the bat is maybe something with the font. It is really hard to read due to the size. I would also optimize your images as suggested by someone else in here. I really like your logo though. Overall great site. I may add this to my links page. I love humor sites. Great job.

Not bad at all. The color scheme works great. I would have to aggree with blackholenews about the font, It's a little hard to read. Besides that though It's looking really nice. Good luck with it.

Your extreme videos section is awful. Who wants to watch old women get attacked by bears, or awful things happen to children?

I like the site design, the monkey is very cool (love monkeys). I would try to find the funniest pictures for the main page. Your 2nd picture of the girl? in a bra I didn't feel would be something I would want to see I was on your site. Nice navigation and yes, make the logo clickable. Good luck with your site, Melanie

Looks really cool, clean and very professional. The content is actually appealing as well, and lends very much to keeping you on the site for a while!! LOL

Take care,

I like it very much. I think the layout and colors work.

One, small thing is the copyright statement is very hard to read. Not important that its so visible, of course... but I think with how it is.. might as well just not include it.

This site is very good and definitely stands out from most other humor sites. I could definitely see whitling away an hour or few here. Only thing I noticed was the monkey is non-clickable. Maybe it's just me playing "Punch the Monkey" one too many times, but I'd suggest clicking the monkey should take me to Home. Another thing you might consider is putting some descriptions on your img tags. This is b/c with the site being so image-heavy, search engines might have trouble figuring out what it's about (though I'm by no means an SEO guru so take this comment with a grain...)

cool site, just added to my links, the text maybe can be bigger, and the adsense box I think will get higer clicks if it is blended in the background (also some sites add a picture above every ad ..worth1000.com), seems that people think twice before clicking "inside a box"

Cool site, but I did have trouble downloading a couple of vids in the extreme section. Others seemed to work fine. You may want to check your links.

It looks nice BUT..

Maybe it is my personal opinion but i dont like site with margins, so everything is centered in the middle. Also, i had a hard time distingushing btween what was an ad, and actual site content.........

HAHA,
