[GA] Lilith and Roland sitting on a tree, and they need help in web design

Hey.

I'm not a web designer but I have to say that I like the website, it's very colorful and easy to navigate.

I think the skeleton of the website is there, all you need now is the content: text, images and perhaps some videos of the animals. I think it would also help if you have a small story for each animal you rescue.

Good luck!

I like the idea, but for me the colors are a bit off. For a animal rescue website, and while you want people to think it's cute, you should use bright colors instead of dark colors, like sky blue and light purple. But then blue and purple are hard to combine, so I think you should pick another pairs.

And for any stuff related to animals, images are what important. People will like it better if you have plenty of cute animals that are temporarily staying there, and people will also give their sympathy for animals that are in trouble. I think you should really consider that.

Kinda looks like this to me.

Maybe like this?

I like the current childhood-oriented design, it's simple, nice, and it's appealing to the sensitive side of people, which is good when talking about animal care...
I'm on the code-side, so it's best for everybody if I don't try to draw or design anything from an esthetic point of view :)
Stuck on Q6 and Q10, solved the others, will wait for hints :)

BMP4SVLD

Stuck on 10 and 14...even with the hint from 10 :(

EDIT: NVM!, got 10 finally. had to carefully read hint and subtle hint in question to solve it :P

Only 14 left and my google skills now are lacking, that or im just typing in the wrong combo :/

Imo you could change the colors to be brighter and also have a logo for the site, like an animal with a cape , this comes to mind.

I have just started a webhosting company and am looking for sites like this to host for free (in return for reporting any issues you have.)
I'd added you (Steam UN: ChickenHugga) if you're interested.

I have no ideea about 13 17 and 15

The site looks playfull.
I found everything except Q10. Brute forced a lot of names but no result yet

I'm stuck on Q12, I tried a lot of combinations and none worked. I tried the name of the game in the game and the name of the game it is inspired from, using only the two main words of the name, but it didn't work. And I'm pretty sure I have the right game...

Stuck on Q9. I must be missing something, but I can't figure out what exactly...

As a professional web-designer, I could say this looks like from 2002. Colors are badly picked, typography is bad too, and the site is waaaay too simple + these corners burn my eyes. Add me in Steam, I can help you for free (or free cat?) as long as you have few days, since I'm a bit busy. ;)

For me, it's too simple and too childish.
The structure itself seems fine.
Try making it so the active tab has the same background as page and the other inactive ones have different color.
Add some border-radius and you can use PIE to make it work on older IEs.
Add some gradients/textures, it's too simple as I've said at the beginning.
Use some CSS transitions.
Also, that jQuery script needs a work, it could have been done easier and better.

I'm the conductor of the POOP train! Effing love the games and have scattered dlc, so won't enter, but thanks!
If you can capture the essence of this commercial/song, you win.

Design is little bit different but it's cute and I like it. Maybe you should use more soft edges for buttons and blocks, because there are many sharp edges and right angles. Something like you use in your sketch design.

Anyway good luck with this project. It's really nice thing to do and I hope that your friend will be successful.

Bump for solved

I might be a complete retard, but I can't find the link to the puzzle, all I see is the website link. Kelp plz.

As soon as I read "Roland" I thought of this guy. If you don't know who that is, shame on you :P

Ok based on your current design, I would change several things:

1.) The font. It's too common and looks like it was typed up in Word!

2.) There are too many colours. Try to stick with 2 or 3 max to create a solid theme for the site. In your case, you have a really nice header image with that rainbow and light blue sky. I would take that light blue and use it for the main background to replace that dark purple colour.

3.) With your header image/title, I would move the "Animal Rescue" words a bit lower so that it doesn't cover up that little butterfly behind the first "e". Little changes like that will make the lettering look as though it's part of the image rather than just on top of it. I'd also add a thin border around Animal Rescue because that will make the title pop :)

These are just some suggestions from someone who used to study web design and are not necessarily the "right" things to do. It's ultimately up to your friend to decide what looks good and what doesn't! Anyways, best of luck and thanks for the giveaway! (even though puzzles aren't my thing)
