ShowSkunkwors - Our New Agency Website

Hello good people, First, I want to apologize if I am violating any rules or if this is considered advertising. Now, I'm part of a young, local, three-man web, branding and apps agency called Skyline Design. We recently launched our redesigned website - http://skylinedesign.co.ke. Kindly have a look and share your thoughts. -- Kind regards, Brian Wangila, UI Designer/ Web Developer Cell: +254-728-750875 Skype: brianwangila Twitter <http://twitter.com/bwangila> | LinkedIn <http://ke.linkedin.com/in/bwangila> | My CV <http://zerply.com/profile/bwangila>

Positive Love the design, really went out of your way for this one. Plus its wordpress :). Negative: Make it a bit more about your clients, and products and less about you (the three martians). After all that's what you are selling. It's also easy to get stuck at the home page, the call to action can be a bit more obvious #my2cents regards On Wed, Jun 4, 2014 at 10:48 AM, Brian Wangila <brian@bwangila.com> wrote:

<positive vibe> Very good job guys! The design looks very nice and you look like you know your stuff very well! I would recommend you to anyone any time! </positive vibe> <tough love> Is this a rock band ama Sauti Sol's website? Why do you have a picture of yourselves on the homepage?!! I feel there is a lot about the developers than the work you do! Change that and you will have achieved perfection! </tough love> On 4 June 2014 07:48, Brian Wangila <brian@bwangila.com> wrote:

While the design rocks and is great show case, I would rather the website was simpler and faster, with a focus on what you guys do and what you have done, and also more stuff that your clients would need.

Hi, Some information from your site would be wonderful... Trying to find out more about you led me to maaaany clicks from which limited info came forth that I can summarize as... There is a ship going to Mars called Skyline captained by a Storyteller and ummm... and they do not entertain stray atoms and ummm.... oh and they do design :-) Cool colors though, but heavy graphics :-( Regards, Mula G On Wed, Jun 4, 2014 at 4:20 PM, Dennis Kioko <dmbuvi@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, I echo Thuo's sentiments. While the design is great, the clicking too much business to get the relevant information is not good at all. People need to find out if you are online, the services you offer and how they can get in touch with you in case they need your services.
