on 26th Jan 2010 and said:To start off, once again another webs.com site...
Loading times:
The site takes way too long to load! I'm on a 20mb/s connection and the site takes 5-7 secs to load! That is way way too long for my connection speed (just like all of the webs.com sites)!Colour's:
The colour's go well together however there is a lack of content except for an intro video and a few widgets like members area.The video's are amateur and too made up on the spot and a little damn what was my line!?
Store - Why have a store if there are no members on the site... I would wait until you have more viewers and / or members so you don't waste the max 20 pages you get on webs.com and so people think ooooo it's new what do they sell?
Video's - The videos are a little too fake some times!

First Impression
There's an annoying ad at the top of the page. I suppose you can't change this as your site is hosted on freewebs, but there are free hosts that don't automatically add ads or even require ads, such as http://www.awardspace.com.The site looks quite boring, and the header image has an obvious cut across brushes used (I think it's brushes anyway), making it look a bit weird on the background.
Style/Design
As said, the header image has an obvious border between the header and the general background. The font you used is also boring, and you could quite easily make a different header image with just the text in a better font with a transparent background so the general background will just go on behind the header so there's no border on the header.
While using only blue and white is a fairly safe choice, it could look so much nicer with just a dash of any other colour.Coding/Scripts etc
You use quite a bit of make-up in your actual html coding. Try dividing your content from the design. Both coding and design will be much easier to edit if they're apart from eachother.Content
You have a nice amount of content and it's well organized. I have nothing to comment here.Overall
While you have a nice amount of content that's well organized, your site could do with some changes in the design. Especially the header image could be better either by using a different font and a transparent background, or a totally different banner.Using Firefox on Windows | Report This?
fugabutacus's Response:
The difference between the header and the border was intentional! I thought it looked pretty nifty but I guess not...
As for the font, I chose that font because next to Bodoni MT Condensed, its the most representative of the look of the series. Unfortunately, Bodoni isn't available on the sitebuilding tool I use :-(
I'm glad you like the content though, that seems to be getting thumbs up from everyone :-)

Freewebs was very annoying to me... Maybe it didn't like me cause this is very impressive!
This is so addicting! The first episode rocks! :D
I like the posters! Very creative.
Overall, your doing great where you are now! I would recommend signing up for your own domain or co.nr

Thank you! Very kind words :D
And I was toying with the idea of registering www.things-and-stuff.co.uk, but since I have several different projects, I'm thinking it might be better to register www.daffadillies.co.uk, then I can have www.daffadillies.co.uk/things-and-stuff.

on 20th Nov 2009 and said:Mozilla Firefox
1440x900pixelsFirst Impression 2/3
The first thing I saw on your website, is the advertisement. =/ I understand that this site is coming from a webs.com, so if possible, try move the advertisement to some place less distracting? If not, its okay. The background and table background is the same. :( Try making them different. May I suggest a dark background instead?
Your Things & Stuffs header. It's too plain. The font choice is bad. Try using a banner or some better font.
I don't like the buttons you have, try keeping them simple or just use their respective logo as the buttons.Content 2/4
The contents are organized. Nothing to comment here.Others 1/3
Need more work on your layout. Try looking around similar website for inspiration.Using Firefox on Mac | Report This?
