This demonstrates how hard it can be to extra information from what someone wants from their redesigned website, in terms of looks and functionality. Luckily we know the best way to extract your ideas into real workable solutions ensuring you get exactly what you want
[Website Change Request] Please find attached my proposed changes to my home page of perfect skin, once we have finalised it, it will be easy for me to send over the changes needed, I’m keen to get the new look and feel right firstly, so can we put these changes on firstly and then the rest can be adjusted easily. We love black background websites. Also love this design with order around this is exactly the feel! [link to a Google search result !]. Can we see how the background with metal design looks, perhaps we could have a phone meeting to discuss the changes?
[Website Designers]
New layout of front page of your website
The top section with the increase the band to double across
(please explain this further – double across? ) and switch to black, (does this mean you want a black background and green font? Not sure how a silver frame can be added here though) also each headed button to have the same silver frame like the front of new price list and each word in the bright green like the price list,
Buttons Home, About, take out treatment button as its featured on the home (featured where? Really think its not good to remove that button / link) page,take out faq section as on the right lower section, keep contact, news and blog to be added to this button, (the news button is there and it’s the ‘blog’) keep the phone your nearest office and email button. Under these buttons please put the logo as per front of price list same black background and frame, (are you sure? This will look strange to have a black bold block on a white backrground) Drop the main image (please explain this further. Are you talking about the logo here?) and write next to it in the same writing (please explain this further ?)
Keep the revolving images as they are strong and eye catching, perhaps we could add two images of different people here. Take the online shop and two buttons next to it and I will move them. Leave the video where it is, please take out see our recommendations, we will move it.
The section that repeats the treatments offered again after to be replaced with the page three page of the new price list, which lists my experience , profile etc. The logos at the bottom to remain
Help from the experts sentence to be removed from the right row of bottoms done the side,
All black buttons with the silver frame and sentence in green the same as top row so it remains constant ( assume this is the footer you are referring to – the green band at the bottom ?) Twitter and Facebook to land on my twitter home page and Facebook page
Think what you are asking will not ‘work’ or look good and for us to design / code the website will not be the best way to do it as it will be very time consuming and ‘expensive’ in terms of time / development time.
A better idea if you want ‘metal design looks’ is to get Louise to draft a design and to review it yourself before getting us to review and code it but I believe you simply need to start from a white or black background. A better use of your time would be to perhaps find a website design that you love and then use that as a basis for future discussions.
Another note is that the metal border (as in your price list) isn’t something that is technically realistic / possible with website design due to the different sized monitors / screens that your website needs to work with.
We need to inform you that we made some ‘urgent’ regulatory changes on your other website today (contacted by companies house after they couldn’t contact him) and have emailed him the details (not sure if he checks his email as often as you).
As you requested we haven’t made any physical changes on your site but have chatted about your requests a few times with my developers and have some good ideas based on our emails on how to redesign the look to meet your new look, we can work from a draft image design created by a graphic designer or we can create the design from scratch based on your requirements. We (Delicious Webdesign) the website design team would love to redesign your site as some pages (specifically the before / after gallery) are crying out for a redesign. Using your before / after seeing the recent flyer we think we can create something much more fresh and ‘uniform’ for all your before / after successes.
We are meeting our developers as planned for a weekly overview meeting so will probably discuss your website, hope you don’t think I am ignoring you as replied on the 5th asking if you got my comments and don’t think you replied.
Regarding your points and the general redesign I would like to suggest that your site could do with a more radical overhaul as some pages (like the before / after gallery) is not user-friendly anymore due to the amount of content you now have on it. Happy to discuss this with you at anytime.
I have re-scheduled your website stats reports and send you one just now and you will be pleased to know that your website is now attracting the most visitors ever (up 86% on the same month last year) I wont take all the credit for that but the search engine friendly design with the SEO hasn’t done you any harm.
Agree that black background websites can look lovely (some of our most complimented websites are black background) your links are to a google search / click on the image or website then send us the link
