Captive Of Thoughts - Review.
More than an year to last review. Looking forward to some critics and appraisers. Thankyou.
Dew drops falling off a leave, to which it no more belonged. Welcome to my blog, a sentence, without a full stop. by Tanishq Sharma.
Reason: An Year To Review, Asking Again.
Hi Tanishq,
Welcome to IB Reviews!
Here is my reivew:
- The theme is dark for the title I guess - but this makes it a bit difficult to read
- Darker red heading may go against the black as negative, even more difficult to read
- there is a lot of clutter on the page, including adverts, which make reading difficult
- You could better the navigation, and reduce the clutter.
- There are many other black themes (recommend Pixel) you may choose over the current one
- You could better do with consistant fonts.. that is easier to look at a page..
- Remember, for a blogger, the reader needs to pay attention.
Hope I am not too harsh, just my opinion.
Thanks,
Hemal
Thanks a lot hemal, I would definitely revert back to these suggestions :)
No probs! Just do your best, you may never know who loves your blog theme after all.. that is just my prespective.
An year to the last review by Indianomics! Anyone here to do it now? :)
Okay, this has to be one of the nicest blog I have stumbled across. The work is marvellous, but I have a few suggestions which are based on my personal experience and my own POV, it's up to you to act on it.
- First it the blank space one sees here. Why is it there? http://prntscr.com/60xt5r suggestion: http://prntscr.com/60xx1e
- Only one blog post shows up, it would be better if the posts are in a grid form with only a short glance on what the matter contains. It increases the interest on what the user wants to pick up from a variety of posts.
- The "Recommended for you is way to below, one would miss seeing that, it would be better if you keep it like this: http://prntscr.com/60xut3 instead for: http://prntscr.com/60xtu0
- This looks as if we are getting a popup animation (http://prntscr.com/60xv5a) it would be better if it was something like this:http://prntscr.com/60xvmy (like keeping it simple and short, instead of a fancy one, but then again, it's totally up to you)
- This could be like only the top 3 this week and making the scrolling a bit short? http://prntscr.com/60xvzj
- Only one would be preferable, right? http://prntscr.com/60xwfa
- And as i keep saying to everyone, why not get a modern theme? This looks nice (way better than r ka theme, that looks old.) But you could make it a bit more user friendly and help people to look for more posts easily, right?
- Remove this, it has no use and is redundant as it is nearly invisible. http://prntscr.com/60xxqz
True, this theme is way better than this http://web.archive.org/web/20140124123840/http://www.captiveofthoughts.com/
Now, to end all my complaints, your blog is nice, like really nice. I just had some problem with the design, i prefer this one in fact: http://web.archive.org/web/20141205083046/http://www.captiveofthoughts.com/
Aside from these issues (these are what i think, not what the regular user would) I love the matter on your blog. Way to go (Just keep in mind, that your blog looks like "COOL" in front of r ka dibba jaisa blog theme )
Thanks a lot Shivam, it means a lot. I would definitely look forward to rectifying all the mistakes by the end of March and make it more user-friendly! :
Once again, thanks a lot for taking so much of efforts in making me realize my mistakes brother! :)
