Critique request: Branching Out Designs - 4/1/2006 10:25:09
I'm new to this whole thing. I'm starting to promote my new independent business. Any suggestions would really help. Feel free to be as honest as you need to be, don't hold anything back. Thanks.

Very few UK sites would do this because you are alienating more people than you are attracting. In the US, such "branding" can effectively establish a niche business.

Nice looking site, I like the colour scheme.

Branching Out Designs is a Christian based graphic and logo design business. I have a problem with statements like this. I think it is unnecessary, and quite offensive to parade your religious beliefs on a business website. Very few UK sites would do this because you are alienating more people than you are attracting. Personally I avoid all business sites with such unwarranted religious statements. I must also ask why you think your religious belief makes you a better designer?
Perhaps he wants to specifically attract Christian clients. Where did he say his religious beliefs make him a better designer?
I'd also like to know why you feel it necessary to shoot down every person who posts on here with a religious "bent" to their site. Your remarks are often rather volatile sounding, rather than just a "by the way, some people might find it offensive."

Peter, I have to disagree with you on this one. Did you look at his portfolio of graphics? The graphics themselves are all religious in nature. Clearly, his client base is exclusively practicing Christians. In that light, his statement on his homepage seems to me very appropriate.

Anyway back to topic.
I like the clarity of the site. Simple, effective and easy to navigate.
Maybe a bit more in the way of content.
Bright green is not one of my favourite colours but it is certainly very unique and memorable.
Well done.

i like it. it has a distinctive feel to it. red-green colour blind (er, visually impaired??) might find it all looks a bit muddy but they can still access the info ok ;)
