Hi guys,

I have just been commissioned to do a redesign of http://www.tweedmill.co.uk, here is a link to see my design http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/1791/tweedmillcleanupjx0.png

Too... much... text... on small space.
Eye... twitch.

I would suggest consulting the shop representer on whether it is possible to remove the amount of text on the opening page. More visuals, less words.

Thanks for the feed back...whats the minimum or maximum amount of words then?

Cheers
Darren

I actually like it the way it is to be honest.

Thanks Johnathan

I have to agree with Etheryte on this one. Way too much text.

I'd look at cutting it in half, replace the Links in the body of the text with images so instead of Mens wear have an image for that, giftware, another image. etc.


just anything to rid your viewers of soo many words.

I like it

remember no aa in body text :p

to fix what others were saying maybe make some graphics for 'how to find' and 'special offers' things?

I think have a few tweaks left, or just redesign of some sections.

Anyway your comments are welcome

Much better. Definitely able to look at it without trying to find what line I'm on
A lot easier on the eyes.
I like that you adjusted the red boxes in the top right.
Good job

Ok, i ve looked at the design this morning and i wasnt happy with it, i didnt like the "quality branded goods" section as it was too small and the images where stupidly smaller.

So i thought i'd remove the 50% image out of the equation to allow more room across and increase the size the "quality branded goods" had.

I thought to myself did the 50% section deserve to be on the main part...regardless of where i put it, it's going to be noticed because of the bright red.

anyway here is a link to the revised version. Again comments welcome, positive or negative, its all good homes.

Good call on expanding that box and moving 50% off. I liek what you've done with it. Two winning designs.
