The Basics 1. Get rid of that autoplay music 2. Dark grey text on a black background is a no-no, the contrast is not high enough for easy "scanning", remember, people don't read content on websites, they skim thru it 3. One minute after staring that the homepage, I still cant tell what exactly you do, maybe its coz its hot and humid here... 4. Links have the same color as non-links, I found myself clicking on the HELLO with no luck 5. You have not optimized your CSS, Javascript or HTML. Since you are using Joomla, JCH Optimize pap! Bottom line You guy you have some serious kick ass talent! 2011/8/4 James Muendo <timrick@gmail.com>

1. Site took approx 2.3 mins to load using a 128K line from Access KE. - Optimize your graphics. ( I can help with that during the hangout session if you attend and need the help. ) 2. your email add needs to be a link for better usability. Don't let your clients copy and paste. 3. Set your video to Autoplay=false. 4. Startup business offer i'm not sure if the image didn't load or doesn't load but looks incomplete. 5. Hyperlinks do not work with a low contrasting background. Aim for visibility try #777 for their color. 6. Good theme selection, it's clear on what you'd like to present. 7. I know this'll sound funny but too much text. Simplify and use bullet points. SEO works better and it's quicker on the eyes. And increase font size by one. ( if you're feeling conservative by .5 ) *W.* On Thu, Aug 4, 2011 at 3:48 PM, Peter Karunyu <pkarunyu@gmail.com> wrote:

In addition to what others have already said, 1. It works great on my 1440k resolution display but is not scaling well below that at least let it effectively scale down to 1024k 2. Some displays may not render gray on black links especially the sprint services section... this has already been mentioned 3. Do something about the heading texts, they are messing up you creativity. Am sure IE clear type fonts render well but certainly not FF or Chrome etc 4. There is some unusual behavior on you page. The mouseover on the "our work" link top right wastes way too much space. And why does it scroll the page. I suspect something wrong with the css... so in that case let me see what it looks like in IE6 and IE7 seeing IE6 is still the most popular IE version out there. 5. Just as I thought your sight is practically unviewable to IE6 users... unfortunately you cant avoid these coz its still quite a huge user base . The rest others have covered ----- "James Muendo" <timrick@gmail.com> wrote:
