The website www.azamatali.com was given a new look last week. I worked on a templete to suit my contents and uploaded it. After working for few days (I am too bad at designing ) and dumping at least two templates, I was finally able to make something. Once the site was updated and converted to ASP.NET 2.0 framework, I thought of taking feedback from people whom i meet regulary on the internet.
The reactions varied from "What's this shit" to "You are genius". I thought it would make a good post for my blog, so i asked everybody how'z the website lookin and recorded their feeback(bricks/bouquet). I am listing here a few of those conversations. Identities have been hidden, honoring each person's privacy. So I am not expecting any "Why did u post my chat?" questions.
Just a good read. Go Ahead.. its going to be a long post.
