Thanks for the feedback Kyle! 🙂

I have now reduced the size of the pictures so the slider should load a lot faster now.

Thanks again!

Here is the site I have been building for my book design business using the Renew child theme. I still have a couple pages to build and finish but would appreciate feedback 🙂

Hi Miranda,

I see you were using the Renew 4 layout…we actually just updated that demo this week with a new layout 🙂

On your site, I’m noticing a spinning bar in the slider area so you may want to look into that (took a very long time to load the slider images). Aside from that a few thoughts would be:

1. Try to break up some of the text with images or icons or smaller chunks of text as you scroll down the page. It’s a little heavy on the text once you start scrolling – mainly in the guidelines for submission section.
2. I would put the call to action box below the 6 month guarantee so the guarantee is fullwidth in the content area followed by a strong call to action. Related to that I would also try to find something stronger for the button colors as they sort of get lost in the background of the site and you really want those call to actions to be big, bold, and direct.
3. General formatting of things like buttons, spacing of buttons.

Thanks for sharing, and hopefully this provides some helpful feedback!

Thank you so much Kyle!

I actually picked that Renew theme because I quite liked the menu/header being on the side instead of the top. What prompted the change?

I appreciate your input and have implemented each suggestion you had 🙂

Updated my site recently. Let me know what you guys think!

Miranda – You’re welcome! You can still set the menu anywhere you want (and for any Stack as well), we simply wanted to update the look of that one a bit.

Nicholas – Really cool! I’m especially liking the video option you have on pages such as this: http://watchandfit.com/shoulders-dumbbell/. If you make your way back I’d be curious to know what video player/service you’re using there. It’s simple and effective!

Hey Kyle, I simply use http://www.gfycat.com/.

Thank you for your feedback!

[KyleKeymaster]

Oh interesting…their animated GIFs…didn’t realize that. Thanks, Nicholas!

Hi JHowell19,

There is a coming soon message on your site so I’m afraid I can’t see anything (and if you don’t mind could you make it public so others could see as well?)

Many thanks for the kind words!

sorry forgot to disable it.

Looking really good! Just a few very minor polish items like a clearer English/Spanish link at the top (image looks fuzzy and hard to read) and maybe a clearer defined call to action at the bottom with an actual contact form and/or phone number. All in all, really nice job!
