New site is up

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/New site is up

I never know whether these annoucements should go in the showcase forum or not, but oh well...

Anyway, I've spent the last month or so completely revamping and re-organising my site, and tonight was the night that I finally uploaded the site.

Link: www.sos-software.co.uk

If you get a few mins, please take a look and let me know what you think of it.

Cheers.

I like the new look... it's clean and easy to read and navigate.. :)

Nice looking site, clear and easy 2 read :)
noticed you have 2 instances of bejewled2 tho :P

looks good. I like the sub menu under games although it took me a little while to realise it was there.

nice looking site, draws you in well.

Looks OK.

I don't know if its an error but Bejewelled 2 is on there twice.

[edit] And Star Defender 3.

[edit again] OK I think something's a bit broken, cos Peggle is on twice, too.

[yet another edit] You should probably play with filtering your google ads, because one of them is undercutting you on Bejeweled 2 by 50% :/

Maybe that's why it's called Bejewelled 2? :P

Nice Shop feeling. Start page has too much text. Needs some tiny screenies IMHO. Maybe some kind of random gallery.
Other than that, nice job.

It looks pretty okay. I think I would add maybe a gradient to the background of the main title logo, and make the edges of the font properly smooth because they look sort of semi-jaggied. But otherwise it was pretty easy to navigate.

and make the edges of the font properly smooth because they look sort of semi-jaggied.
He can't do anything about that. Turn on font smoothing/cleartype in your OS.

Thanks for your feedback guys. Glad you all like it apart from a few niggles.

A couple of the games are on the "featured" page a couple of times, as there are two league tables; one for all time popular titles, and another for the last month. This should sort itself out over time, as I have not had that many downloads, hence the similarity between the two lists. I'll probably make this distinction a little clearer in the near future.

Agree with the first page having a fair bit of text, as the same thought has occurred to me. I'll probably add a few screenshots to lighten it up some.

Also noticed those dam Google ads. I'll look into the filtering options, as I also need to filter non-relevant ads, like SOS ID bracelets and so on.

Glad you all like it, much appreciated.

I like it!

Maybe you could do something so clicking on a screenshot thumbnail, simply changed the bigger thumbnail? There's a lot of back-and-forth right now.

Apart from that I think it's nice!

Nice site, well laid out!
