    Re: Headlight restoration website review

    Its looks pretty Good. It could be spiced up a bit.

    here is a quick sample of some thoughts.


    using a different color behind the did you know box separates it from the rest of the page making the page seem less chaotic.

    dont use serif and sans-serif typeface on the same pages for text.

    I like the idea above but, I think the OKC Headlights should be white, maybe an LED headlight white. Represents the headlight brightness to me.

    too much white on the page as it is. you need to separate the company name and branding from simple text. the page is very contrasty and difficult to look at. The graphic elements do not guide you though the content.

    I simply picked a color to show how much better the header stands out having some color in it. rather then just white. White font could work but it would need to be larger, bolder typeface. and the underlaying text would then need to be shade of gray and smaller.

    What about the LED color, like you see them as bluish, or would that still not be bold enough.

    Led headlight? you mean Xenon's? or HID?

    you could go with a 5000kelvin or so white scale color. i forget the pantone for it.

    I dont know that it will stand apart, especially on most monitors. Im on 30" professional monitors. most monitors especially laptops will not display colors as accurately and white vs very light blue may not even be distinguishable.

    Yeah I was thinking Xenons but also those LED running lights BMW has now around the edges.

    Anyway, just trying to throw in a headlight color but I really like the way it stands out above.

    ...

    Glad you have 4 jobs tomorrow, awesome!

    Re: Headlight restoration website review

    I changed the font. I'm very limited to adding elements to the website unless I go all out with HTML (which I'm not too familiar with). I'm therefore not able to add a horizontal bar to separate the two or shade the background of the Did You Know box. that would definitely help some with the "flow".

    I wanted to go with an orange logo (for OK State University) but decided against it. I didn't want to associate myself with any particular school and my business cards are pretty sleek with the B&W and same CF background.
