The site is updated! If anyone has some suggestions for the site, please post here or send me a message.
We also had a somewhat other design of the site that you can find here:
http://slothcoin.org/index1.html.
I have also received some suggestions, that we need to get rid of the rapey images.
Some suggestions coming from Rasdisputin
1.) Unique Services - Value driven by utility rather than market speculation
2.) Website Update - Who are the developers (technical backgrounds/roles) and what's on the horizon for sloth coin. (Will do this)
3.) Reddit Presence - I liked the hardfork giveaway. It would be awesome if someone could set up a tipbot. (I can't get the standard tipbot to run, 10 million Sloth bounty if you can get one to run.)
Now for point 1 to happen, there needs to be some market and/or a reasonably sized community. Now people are always positive when i tell them about Sloth. Let's start inviting them to the subreddit and this thread.
Some suggestions.
- I am missing some paddings / margins
- None of the used fonts exists on my work machine, so i get the default font (Windows 7 box)
- It could use a somewhat more modern touch
Well, give me a sec, ill do a quick redesign with my thoughts
It's the Georgia font, so that should not be a problem on any machine. What do you mean, modern touch?
Ok i failed,
doesnt look nearly as good as imagined.
Georgia is part of the MS-Core fonts. I dont have them installed on any of my systems, except my windows work machine. (I found out that it does work here, but i didnt get it because its defined twice in the css and i only disabled it once to see the diff.). I am no fan of serif fonts anyway, so you dont have to listen to me at all here.
About the modern touch, again its the font that let it look like a "classic website", the small navigations with the strong borders, the single pinkish background color, the more or less random paddings and margins on the top, between navigation and the hr, and the 2 boxes left and right which seem to be a little alone down there.
Look at
how dogecoin uses a similiar design but strong colors to make clear where the user has to look at. All important links are directly accessible, without probably crazy submenus. When talking about submenus, as user i assume this to be a navigation and not that it is linking me to varius different resources.
Or to take something totally different,
RDD has my favorite coin site so far. You go on this site, and instantly know it has to be something social. Then you keep reading and get the idea why RDD is better/different/whatever than other coins plus you get linked to every other information you could probably need in a related context.
Another factor that needs to be named is the responsive'ness. I dont know about coin sites, but i usually see something between 15-30% mobile users in webstats. People love adaptive mobile optimized designs (or i do so intense that i assume everybody does). And yet another thing, i would not download any resources from mega where i could use github or a orginal resource aswell. I think it looks a little fishy (i know it isnt, but people could see it that way) to dont have orginal resources linked in the miner section.
I hope you dont get me wrong, its actually my day work to criticize and create websites, there is nearly no website i can look at without seeing small details everywhere that could be optimized.
