I'm not a fan of the "sharing links" or rating stars. How often do you expect people to share an item here? It doesn't look like stuff that would be quickly submitted, since it's product sales. It adds clutter. Rating I like, but stars? Too generic. It's not adding anything.
I like the layout. Dunno what the audience will be - this isn't my kind of site - but it looks good and mostly clean. Question: how do I sign up to add my own things, if I think it's good? Is there a community for that? Or do I have to contact you directly?
- thomatas 18y agoMaybe you could use diamonds instead of stars since the audience is obviously women ;-)
- jfarmer 18y ago"It adds clutter. Rating I like, but stars? Too generic. It's not adding anything" How do you know? Are you in the target market? Do you have any data to back that up? I'd try anything and everything, measure it, and see what works. Who knows? One woman's clutter is another woman's awesome feature.
- wushupork 18y agoThat was the mentality - it's easy enough to throw up there so let's just do that and see if it resonates.
- unalone 18y agoI was speaking entirely from the point of view of my own aesthetics. The more unnecessary images, the worse it is. It's why I like Hacker News' aesthetic so much: for what it does, it only uses two different images, one on the main page. I think and have thought for a long time that having a 5-star rating system to create a massive opinion is unnecessary. It's good for when you have a focus on the individual, because then it focuses on the user's own tastes; for a site like this, I don't see why up-and-down wouldn't be sufficient.
