  Old  Fruda.com - FINALLY RELAUNCHED!?

Hey guys...
So I finally got around to creating something for my favorite domain, again.

fruda.com

I just realized I made a heck of a long blog post, so its all in there.

As I say in the blog, I wasn't aiming for spectacular graphics, I was aiming for some good content structure and just a clean, simple, and well organized valid blog. I personally like it, but what do you guys think?

Here are the original PSD designs (the posts will look like the design once I get more posts in).

http://uploadm.com/uploads/fruda16.jpg ... and
http://uploadm.com/uploads/frudacomments.jpg

Thoughts?

Looks good.

Couple suggestions:
- Lower the line-height for your main content. Right now it's spaced too far apart.
- MORE COLOUR! With such a fruitilicious name it's a bit dull colour-wise.
- Do a little bit more with the Fruda logotype. Maybe...


These are just suggestions though.

I like it but i think it really lets the domain down...

Fruda.com just seems to sound more flashy imo

Thanks guys, might add in some of the frudafruits. Got 4 of 'em
I'll probably add an ajax color swatcher sometime soon.

At least make the links that don't change color loose the line under it when you rollover it.

Looks awesome, but the line height is kinda high, it's at 30px right now, 24-26 would be good...

Just out of curiosity I looked at the CSS, and saw the body had borders :P

Heh thanks. I forgot to mention its not totally done yet, the rollovers and the comments for example.

Will have SOME effects at least.

I had been waiting for the release of Fruda for ages! You need to do up the design more, Fruda to me should have a whole load of different tangy fruity colours to it!

Nice to see my old domain getting used. I like the design. But could use a bit more lemon ;D
