Review Please: Target Zion
Hey, recently our networks went down and we had a crap load of clean up to do, and it made us want to change our site. We're tossing around a few ideas, and this is one of them...

Let me know what you think, and be sure to point out what's wrong clearly.

Looks good, the site took a bit long to load on cable. It looks a little plain to me, nothing really stands out and attracts the visitors.

Not sure why your load time was so long. There are only two image files, one is 28.9kb and on is 20.3kb. Other than that, there is nothing that should take any real load time at all. Perhaps your connection slowed down momentarily.
Also, as far as being basic goes, that's kind of what we're going for. We don't want to distract attention away from the message. We kind of want to keep it simple and just put the information of our services out there.
Thanks for the comments. Appreciated.

I like the first one better, because the packages are very easy to navigate on the side. Overall, a plain but clean design. Not too many coding errors (you left out a few alt tags). But other than that...looks pretty good.

We personally like the second one better, but I see your point about the package links on the side. You think if we sort of combined the two ideas it would resemble something good?

Odd that there are now two TargetZion's here!

Well, that would explain why TargetZion has the same logo as his avatar!
TargetZion(s) - give us some names so we can tell you apart!

Hey,
Here is what I think...
I am not really sure how I like that navbar, maybe have the alignment on the top and have it extend down the entire page?
Other than that the site is OK. Nothing really stands out and grabs my attention.
Hope this helps
A new MMORPG is on the way!

Gotcha. Yeah, I wasn't personally a huge fan of it either. Just one of many concepts we have flying around. Thanks.

The site looks ok in grey, clean and smart.
the text menu on the left doesn't seem to work? are they buttons or just a list?
it looks like navigation.
are you planning to get a real url?
What is the www.latest-thing.co.uk?

These are just templates, not actual working models. Yes, once we choose the exact features and such we will launch a fully functional version. Thanks for checking it out.

Why am I getting back to this thread when I click on that link?

Or not... I think you've got a glitch in your forum. Obviously the link is to a .jpg file so I know I'm not accidentally redirecting it back here.
Just copy and paste the link. The link is valid. Just doesn't work here apparently.
Works for me now.... Try it... I think this design is fairly decent, but we're still pumping away at it to make it better...
