NooseLadder Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Hi, I would like your opinions on the background and colour combinations of the content area please of the attached screenshot. Not the final layout of course, just the concept.
Soma Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 That's a dangerous question. Nothing wrong but it's a though combination I don't really like. Especially the background is very standard green and almost impossible to use in this combination. I looked on a movile. And the big font is playful but horrible It's a little barebone yet and and hard to get a feeling of the direction.Sorry for being harsh. The great is often close.
NooseLadder Posted June 21, 2013 Author Posted June 21, 2013 That's a dangerous question. Not really. Honesty is what I am looking for, anything else is a waste of time! Thank you Soma for your comments.
Adam Kiss Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I'm not really a fan. The background is very 90s, and the semitransparent red looks very vomit-ish. For something slightly less subjective, you seem to have very little saturation contrast, i.e. everything is very desaturated. Try to throw in some white and at least one more saturated color (preferably something important), it will probably work better.
horst Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I cannot say something to the design (background, font, etc) because I have not enough knowledge of these things, but the color combination has at least not enough contrast: http://leaverou.github.io/contrast-ratio/#%23C6DF9F-on-%23BD7254 (So, you don't need to get a green ratio with that tool, but orange would be better)
totoff Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 i'm not excited. what others say about the colors stands. but mainly i don't like the concept: the background has something of "digital age back in the 80ties" while the typography is more "gardening in the 90ties". that doesn't fit well together. apologize, but you were asking for honesty.
Nico Knoll Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 It's not that awesome. Neither the combination of back- and foreground nor the font used for "aWebseite.com"... Sorry.
