RE: Whaleshares Website Redesign: First Screenshots
Thanks a lot for taking time to read and experiment with the mockups. I greatly appreciate it. This is what I like on Steemit, a creative environment where ideas flow.
I will work on the horizontal tabs version as I like the cleanness of just one input at start. Also this version is capable to hold more info as the website will grow. I will make a variation with bright colors and ask the community for feedback. The idea of logo "exhibition" is great and I'll try it on the footer, thanks for the hint! I've had the idea of a rotating background image and will experiment with it too.
As for bootstrap, I like their functional approach but not the visual style, it seems to me to be overused and I'd like Whaleshares design to be unique (yet of course functional). I was looking into alternatives to bootstrap but didn't yet decide if I want to go with any of them. At any rate, I always work with the responsive design in mind.
Thanks again for your comment and let's stay in touch!
No problem. I'm happy to give feedback along the way, even if it just helps get other ideas flowing. Like you said the shared creative process is really great here.
Always keep in mind us "web guys" assume everyday people know what we intended things to do, but sometimes the elements need that extra-obvious hand-holding explanation. :-) Like the titles of the tabs themselves. "Check Your Post". In last night's discord chat, I got to listen to new-comers to Whaleshares go through that process of using them to upvote for the first time with Akrid trying to guide them. It was rough, but understandable that not everyone will understand the process at face value.
I will follow along. You can reach me in discord too.
Thanks! will connect to you on discord)
