design doesnt trip me(even tht sucks ass too), there's more to a site than meets the eyes
I have always been afraid of using this line on several occassions where issues such as the one at hand comes up. Reason is: I believe many people will say I am not a complete designer. But l agree with Dual Core theres much more in a site that meets the eyes! If Your site is very good looking and not user friendly, somebody like me willl not even notice the good looks. We are not even talking about security yet. As for the cotek IT site, I dont hold anything against it more than that of Akunyili There isnt much difference. |

Atleast certified designers are talking now.
Not that little boy making noise about cotekit.
I tld him that i saw pre-made signatures all over it.
i spent only a minute on that cotekit and hate it already.
I dont stay on a site that is not user friendly.

lol !!!. i always try to make people understand something. i don't give a damn if nairaland is one of the ugliest forums i've ever been in. the fact is, it works. simple.
what functionality is on that nigeriarebrands.com? contact us form? u've got to be kidding me. why should'nt that site be more attractive. what did the developer spend his time doing? building contact forms and drwing tables? think about this thing for a while now haba!!! when i sat down and tought about it, i came to the conclusion [maybe it was done by an in house guy and they had to rush the thing]. that i understand. but if that site was contracted out, i totally totally refuse to accept that it's even close to being ok. if the Ministry of Information and Communications contracted that site out and is ok with it, lol, what do they think of u yes u. not to talk of foreigners who check it out. bone the whole small talk abeg.

The point is foreigners who look at it doesnt give a damn about beauty, they give a damn about what they read, about the content. A website, in your own eye should be judged by what? by the beauty or by the content? |

hmm, i wonder why most of their sites dont look like that. anyways, each visitor to a site expects or comes with his own different view. if my company for example took part in that, i'll be checking the site probably to see the remarks my M.D. made. that way i dont care about beauty. or if i wanted to go into branding and wanted to view whatever they had to say. if i was a web designer or a graphics person or even an IT person, i might need information on the site but the look also would matter to me. it has to. it's like reflex.out the site up in the computer area, nobody would care. i use nairaland all the time but you'll also hear me say "men that nairaland no fine at all oh!" why you guys are taking this personal i still dont understand. show NIIT students the site and they'll laugh about it. even though only a very few of them can do better. no matter wahtever lenght you take this to or whatever comments u make in support, the fact would always remain that nigeriarebrands.com was'nt well designed. if you learnt web design, web development or whatever you want to call it, you'll know that. for those of you who stumbled on it, i totally understand if you like it.

thread on fire!!!.
Mehn, cotekit.com doesnt suck and same with dora's rebranding brand
What pissed me from the start is the fact that i was expecting a tattered design based on comments here
only to be disappointed. The site is not too bad as claimed.

@ ddonobi
nice one!!! putting this thread apart, that's a brilliant site/portal (as u may). very well done. na that one dem dey call EOD (end of discussion). like dual core said "Is the site informative? Yes!
Is it live? Yes!
k, end of story. No amount of noise here will even change one html tag on that site. "
we all understand that. but this is a webmasters forum and it's only right we talk, discuss or argue about things like this (especially when we are not even paid to do so). that's what we are suppose to do (i think). and though some people always take these things personal (which is'nt professional) we'll, that's their business.

I had fun arguing here. @ddonobi , I can easily detemine now that you are not 100% sane. @neptune, We are not arguing whether your work is good or bad, I just said you should link us to it and you suggested i google NEPTUNE. I guess you are NEPTUNE right? Because without consulting google, I know what neptune is. I suggest you google me too, I dont design, I use templates, there are thousands of them free out there and since i dont want to work as a designer, i see no reason to design except for fun. I write humour stories and jokes for magazines and newspapers. Some of the internet jokes you read are my works. So you can as well google up my name. Dont forget to join my fans club on facebook. http://ja-jp.facebook.com/pages/Samson-Akpaka-aka-sam-milla/58990442026 |

Roflmao!!!
a) To the average user, design INCLUDES functionality, aesthetics and all. I am not a designer, so I am giving a user's point of view here. When I approach a website on a government, say IRAQ, Aesthetics, combined with functionality will cause me to decide IF I will trust information posted on that site or If I will choose to move on for data/info I need.
So forgive me if, I don't get how a WEB DESIGNER can conclude that site functionality is not a part of WEB DESIGN/ARCHITECTURE when we are not in kindergarten.
b) Foreigners do mind about the Design of a site. That is why we keep hearing companies speak of REBRANDING and CHANGING COMPANY IMAGE. . . let's stop fooling ourselves please
I can pick out, with my eyes closed, 10 sites developed using ready-built templates, with that were customized by Nigerians, in 1 minute. How many Nigerians sites, built from scratch and not copy/paste jobs, do you think I can pick out in the 10 times that time? Even Nairaland uses a pre-built template and to be honest, that IS why it does not seem as bad as tons of other Nigerian forums out there. I remember when Nairaland first came online, it was really uninviting. I mean functionality was there but the white and green plaster was just too much.
Now, about your celebrating Nigerian webmasters site, I say PLEASE!!!! That site looks more like it is for everything and even baskets. And aesthetically speaking, it is not really pleasing to the eye either.
I am here on a WEB DESIGNER BOARD, as a user to air my grievances. To Help Designers understand that they probably need to do better than to sit most of the day thinking they have it all figured out. COPY AND PASTE DOES NOT CUT IT. You NEED TO LEARN to do things from scratch so you better understand how to tweak what already exists and MAKE IT YOUR OWN in the end.

so whts the fight about now? who better pass who abi? tht's wht its always about here anyway. i'm thinking the only way to end this would be to hold weekly or monthly web design/dev competitions. yea yea yea this would help sharpen skills but i really would like something like that to put everyone in his/her place and it will make everyone talk with respect. no be wen i talk one thing, one small html boi go follow put mouth, come dey drive rough on top i kid (not). |

@remoranger,
Nice websites, i guess you have a thing for search bars
and your photoshop brushes need some scaling before use, maybe doubling it
