It is so much easier to read black and white. RED and BLUE are the worst color choices.
TO MUCH ALL CAPS. A Sans Serif font is not good for reading.
It looks like a Powerpoint slide.
Let me know when you change things.
There are many references, one of my favorites is Designing the User Interface by Ben Shneiderman.
BTW I am a User Interface expert. You can contact me off line if you would like a professional opinion and improvements. I could with you coder to build a better User Interface.
Suggestion: change the links so they open in a new browser page.
Google News did this recently and it certainly simplifies things.
Yer site looks good Melvin. I have it bookmarked.
I like it how you have Al Jazeera english news looking gooddd so far
Bookmarked, thanks.
Thanks.
Well, I like it.
I think you’d be well served to listen to Crazy Jim and upchuck, a few minor tweaks could help.
I’ve bookmarked your page and look forward to frequently checking it.
Good Job
I'll give ya some exploratory hits, but warily, as I'm already sensing some agenda or other in play re your listing scheme for the above.
In the meantime, might wanna tread carefully around here, lest you win a new hat ;-)
Nice job! I’ll be back.
News looks god Melvin.....but the blue and red colors have got to go...too distracting....I’d just keep it clean and crisp with black.
Looks good - and hopefully without the Romney shilling.
I’m never setting electron on the Drudge Report again, after seeing him in action this primary season.
I don’t see any point in going to Drudge, or Martinez, or any other site, because the moment something is posted there, it will be posted here.
Looks good Melvin. Keep it fresh and keep it focused and I will do what I can to spread hyperlinks to relevant pages to bring awareness to the presence of an alternative to Drudge. Nice start, now let’s see what you got!
Looks real good. Bookmarked.
I like it. Bookmarked to check daily...
Went back for a 3rd look. So far, so good. I noticed the welcome absence of those ridiculous puff pieces that Drudge likes so much.
Bookmarked.
Not a bad idea: a couple of suggestions, though:
1) There is no rule saying you have to copy the Drudge format. You should have your own style (IMHO). For example paper.li has a very easy-to-use style.
2) You may want to reconsider some of your references:
- Craigslist as a reference? A reference for what? picking up a wh0re?
- Joseph Smith...prophet of restoration? Piece of advice: that will turn a whole lot of folks off.
Your site...your business, but the above might help you out a bit.
Much better after “polarization”.
I would suggest a Serif font though.
Use red sparingly if at all. For a mission critical interface red is only used for life and death items.
BTW the goal is not to look like anyone else, it is to follow good user interface design principles. A good interface is a good interface.
