~Suggestions on the New mall layout? ~

Submitted by reseller_1337 on Mon, 24/05/2010 - 8:59pm
Its called the Altador Emporium. :* It still needs minor Adjustments but I need suggestions. Should there be more smaller categories or should it be combined? Like Food & drinks in one square? Also I am not to fond of the image that is currently on there, seems a bit fuzzy to me? Anyhow post your suggestions and if possibly you could help with the coding and such of have a computer that can code more clear pictures. The user has done a great job though and he said he'll try to fix it but I am not sure if he knows how as hes just starting on the whole graphics thing:o http://www.neopets.com/~austeil

Alright will the the graphic artist know. Hopefully we can get a better image on there xD What about the categories?

LOL. Whoever is the graphic designer, he/she definitely do not know what he/she doing. Right now, everything is so rough. You see the edges of all the images(which you shouldn't) and the font is too simply put. I really think you could do much better. Just play around with photoshop (if you don't want to buy it, just google it). Really, the only thing that I like about that is how the categories are laid out. Anyways, I don't want to offend your "graphic designer" too much so I'll end it here. +) WOW!

I know, I do agree on some aspects. He said it was a rough copy atm. And the good copy will be done this Friday so we will see then. :o

If that's the case, then yes, lets give him the benefit of a doubt. To answer your question, I think a separate button for the "Foods" and "Drinks" is fine. If you want a relatively big banner, you can just have 2 buttons per category. WOW! Selling: Maps, Neggs, Stamps, Coins, Cards, ETC! http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=1434sweet#p

Not trying to be mean, but it's NOT the best banner. You can do better.. ----------------------------- [color=green]NeoMallers.com [b]tent-free[/b] policy now in effect. Keep your heads clean. Click [url=http://neomallers.com/green_movement]here[/url] to support us[/color]

I like the name. :) Oh my... to be honest, it looks like someone puked all over it. :( Actually, all you have to do is refine the edges, take out the blinding diagonal lines, and use a different font for the header. It can look quite nice if your graphic designer just spent a little more time on it. Petpet Paradise http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mizleah

Is this done in Paint? The font is too hard to read. The graphics have white outlines in them. There is a secret here in Paint. Color the button FIRST then paste the picture. I'm pretty sure you put on the picture first before painting the button. The color of the buttons are bland and not stimulating. Go for bright colors ^^ Make the main banner more exciting ^^ _______________________________________________ Bugsy's GUIDE to Effective SHOPKEEPING and MALLING: Version 3: Learn More About Hut Positioning http://www.neopets.com/~bugsy_lenny
