Hey boys n girls, i've been working on my site in between doing bits and bobs of client stuff...

I was just wondering if i could get your opinions of the layout so far: (the links n things dont work yet, and all the content is just dummy text at the mo).

You can see the site at: http://www.nuzone.co.uk/index.php

Also, what do you guys think of the logo? does it read easily?

Thanks!

Andy

Looking pretty good to me. Part of the test for me though is how the design holds up page after page. I look forward to seeing more of it as you flesh things out.

Your logo caught my eye earlier in another post you made - I like it a lot. The business cards must look snazzy Wink But now that you mention it, I wonder how intuitive it is. I knew it read "nuzone" going in so I had no problem. If you do get feedback along these lines, I would trying complementing the logo before trying to change it - You have the makings of a good brand there, imo.

lol... i really like the logo myself, but i'm just worried about people not recognising it. I did try splitting the letters up with a small link, but found that it started looking like rjzone instead! (which is even worse!).

Thanks for the comments!

I agree, I like it. My only critisism is that the header section down to the links takes up nearly half the page at 800*600 which is too deep IMO. Also the footer looks like it should be links.

Look forward to seeing some more Smiling

I see what you mean... it does look a bit honging on 800x600! (i really must remember, to check smaller resolutions).

I suppose i could shrink the animated bit down a bit, that would definatly reduce the height somewhat... Speaking of which, what do you guys reckon to the animated bit? is it annoying?

Looks really nice! Smiling

IMO, I think it would look better if the part where the animation is were a wee bit smaller and maybe just put some sort of static tagline there instead of the swf.

The animation seems to distract from the rest of the page.

Great site, love the logo. The animation is a little big, but if scaled down alittle, you could use it for more than just a cool effect for your site. You could use it to draw attention to that spot and oput somethign useful there like a link you would like users to pay special attention to.

I like the logo too. I vote that you keep it. Also, it agree that the orange animation is too tall but other than that, the page looks great.
