scrutiny: Spalding Plastic Surgery
The Spalding Drive is sort of the center for Beverly Hills cosmetic surgery and dermatology. They've got a site up at spladingplasticsurgery.com, and I'm here to criticize it. Heeheehee.
First impression? "Hm... White."
Second impression? "Hmm... Too white."
Third impression? "-sigh- WAY too white."
Okay. Being a minimalist, I actually LIKE white, and keeping websites clean and... white. But this website, I think overdid it a bit.
The other colors are fine: brown and black work well with white, actually. But even though the sidebar has a brown background color, I still think that the pages are too bland.
Bland and crowded.
Dear readers: if you have a lot of content, make sure that you separate them accordingly (like what Spalding did), and make sure that you have enough space between small divisions, too (not like what Spalding did). Don't stuff your homepage with little itty boxes and expect the viewer to know where to go. Many, good options are nice, but make sure to organize them well. When I saw Spalding's homepage, I kind of felt overwhelmed.
What's more, their main links on the top look like regular text... They don't attract the eye to them at all, and they don't make the hand gravitate toward them to be clicked. If you've got a lot of pages, navigation is very very very imporant. Surfers should feel that they know where they can click.
I'm sure this site has a lot o information, and I'm sure their clients are good. (Especially since they're doing surgery in Beverly Hills, of all places!) But, to be honest? I think their website needs a bit of work.
