Show HN: what do you think of our coming soon splash page?
We are trying to crowd source video playlists.
Why i started working on it?
We think video discovery is and will be a problem.We could solve this by crowd sourcing video playlists. Each playlist can be followed and when new videos are added, it appears in your stream.
What do you guys think??
- jentulman 15y agoNot keen myself, I think you'd be better off losing all the fades and having all the text visible all the time and nicely typeset. The animation obviously can't go much faster if it's going to remain readable, but it feels like it takes too long to find out what it's about, and I had to hit refresh to remind myself what it started with by the time it got to the end. Mind you I was a bit caught up in wondering why the font looked so jaggy, seems that, in Chrome on OS X at least, opensans is rendering very jaggy. Overall it feels a bit like you got caught up in the whizzy jquery and the overall page suffers for it. A nicely set static layout would probably serve you better.
- playhard 15y agoThanks for your feedback. will look into it mate.
- tylerwl 15y agoI agree. playhard, your logo and color scheme look good. But keep in mind that if someone opens your link in a background tab and then looks at it a few minutes later, all they're going to see is: Coming soon... Are you ready to Luttie? Since that person is going to have no idea what they stand to gain from choosing to Luttie, they're probably going to leave instead of submitting their email.
