The Project Above You

[Michael]

Hey Guys,

Simple game which could help us all, you simply post your latest project and someone replys saying what they would do to improve your latest project and then speaks about there project and so on.

I will start us off,

Url: http://www.photoshopspot.com

Heres a new site of mine, its mission is to teach photoshop users the steps of photoshop from the beginning stages to full website design.


What you think ?

How are we supposed to rate it? Outta 10?

I give it 5/10. Designs a bit .... yeah... lol. ... teal and yellow. Not sure about that combo. Good idea. Tutorial sites are good adsense earners. Easy to promote etc. Just the design really lets it down imo.

Provide articles/content for webmasters. Also an arena for webmasters to post their articles/content to drive traffic to their own site. Slow on traffic atm. Made some money through text and banner links, although its limited.

I like it.. a nice design that's easy on the eyes and it's really well monetized. I'd give it a 8/10 I may even use this site for future reference

My site:

http://www.menewsha.com

An online avatar community where users create their own "avatar" and play games or post in the community to earn gold to buy clothing, items, pets etc.. for their avatar. Monthly items will be sold for $2.50 to monetize the site.

Not bad, I'll give it the following:

8/10 for the concept, although it is somewhat... MeeGo's...
6/10 for the design, could be better I won't deny that.

Overall, 7/10 average.

it isnt very good, i mean the design rocks, but not enough is up. when finished, im guessing 8.5/10

[Scott]

Simple... Need a project added to the list... :P

Well, I'll comment on the last one to help keep it going

(V5N) - It's a nice idea, but currently I can't see much there. Half of the services are listed as under development and the forums are 404. However, the design is nice and the two sites that are online look nice.

One thing I really like though is the "Sign In" on-page pop-up, I think that's great, Ajax all the way

Blog Directory / Resource Website - Blogoculars. This is one of my more recent projects, a news feed based (RSS, Atom etc.) blog directory and I'm in the process of expanding the articles section.

Micheal I like the content but the colors are not eye catching .Looks well monetized.The links under the photo shop tutorial are not active and are basically grayed out looking. Would have to copy and past which I hate doing .All together I give it a 8/10 . My website needs revamping so I won't add the link yet.

@Blogoculars: I dislike the color scheme - it seems pale and sickly :P Maybe you can add a pair of binoculars to the logo?
Lots of 404's and some of the posts are in foreign languages (kinda confusing). It's a nice idea but it could use some work. 4/10.

Mine: Blog Badly, a humorous blog-about-blogging blog.

I'd give "Blog Badly" an 8.5/10 rating.

I really like the general layout of it, as well as the immediate popularity because it rips on a popular/established blogging website. The articles are generally nice and the pictures spread throughout are very aesthetically pleasing. A great domain name, and a great start there

I think the problems with it surround the right side of the website mostly. It goes from seeming way too cluttered around the top of the website, to nothing at all near the middle... just a bit odd in my opinion.

I'd love for a review of my blog: The Net Fool
A business MMO blog w/ a mix of stock market investing advice
