Hat sich noch nicht so ganz "rund" angefühlt, der footer gefällt mir noch nicht wirklich.
Ich habs schon 'umdesigned' und paar Sachen geändert, wird demnächst geändert. :')

Außerdem hab ich schon wieder was neues für mich.

Na, das sieht ja noch besser aus

Ich komm damit eigentlich ganz gut zurecht

Danke. ;D

Gefallen mir nicht wirklich, ist einfach zu standard ohne wirkliche Einstellungsmöglichkeiten. Fühlt sich so leer an die Seite imo. Außerdem hatte ich wie ich mal eine aufbauen wollte extreme Probleme die mit Bildern zu füllen, weil das system die ganze zeit gebuggt hat und habs dan gelassen. :/
Is ja nur meine Meinung. ;D

Bei deinen Photos auch kein Wunder. ;D

Haha Ich hatte bisher keine technischen Probleme damit Aber du hast Recht - viele Einstell-Möglichkeiten gibt es nicht.

Thank you. <3

Sorry no, this is just the Photoshop file, I still suck at coding, I want to improve my design skills first before I actually start with coding.

Do you want to buy it? :B

Nironan12 In reply to PatrickRuegheimer [2011-12-07 21:37:12 +0000 UTC]

I'd code it.

On second thought, I still haven't decided my prices.

PatrickRuegheimer In reply to Nironan12 [2011-12-07 21:44:43 +0000 UTC]

Ha, can't afford stuff atm.

I'm gonna try to sell it as psd template on themeforest. :')

Otherwise I want to get into coding anyway, so maybe I'll be able to code it by myself soon or later.

Thanks, tho. :')

Nironan12 [2011-12-05 21:30:48 +0000 UTC]

This is amazing! This is exactly the kind of graphic design I love!

I do have one tip, increase the contrast. Up top I can hardly distinguish the grey icons from the black backgrounds. The blue menu button are a little dim and all of the buttons in general have a low contrast between the text and the button.

I love all the neatly placed elements, the font, simplicity, and styling. And even that little stack paper thing.

PatrickRuegheimer In reply to Nironan12 [2011-12-05 21:34:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks man! ♥

Ah, well I love low contrast things, also those things are ment not to directly get your attention.
They'll get more contrast when you hover them, otherwise you get spamed with highly contrasted buttons and stuff all over the place, or?

I'll try it out, tho.

I can't tell what that font is... is it League Gothic?

Helvetica Neue. ;D

Darn, that appears to be absent from my font library.

I will have to acquire it using completely illegal methods.

I made the icons at the top left (telephone / mail) in illustrator, my first web icons.

What do you think?

Nironan12 In reply to PatrickRuegheimer [2011-12-07 21:27:51 +0000 UTC]

I think it looks great.

Although the serifs on "Enjoy my artworks? Hire me!" look a bit off.

And the flat "HIRE" button looks odd when the other elements are round.

PatrickRuegheimer In reply to Nironan12 [2011-12-07 21:34:56 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. (:

Yeah, you're right I just liked the font and didn't realised it. Will try another font then.

You think so, I thought it would be a nice contrast against all the round stuff, and it would break the right straight line of the content. Don't you think so? :0

Nironan12 In reply to PatrickRuegheimer [2011-12-07 21:38:25 +0000 UTC]

Is it the kerning?

And I just thought it looked odd with the other rounded corners of the "pages" directly above it.

Oh, just noticed, "artworks" should be "artwork". Grammar nazi moment.

PatrickRuegheimer In reply to Nironan12 [2011-12-07 21:43:06 +0000 UTC]

I don't know, it's the default kerning.

Yeah, kind of. I'll see what I can do. ;D

D'oh! You're right, gotta change it later, thanks!
