You clearly know nothing about design, people and what they like and dislike. 

I suspect you have something to do with the design yourself and that's why you are being defensive.

That site looks a lot like a holding company design and if I happened across that site for any reason I would ditch the tab and never return for several reasons :

- Looks like a domain holder. *
- The orange bar acts as an overlay.
- Orange bar isn't aligned to the top or bottom of the page.
- Orange bar is pointless to me as a user.
- Main page has no content, only links.
- Clicking on a main link provides another set of links.
- Clicking on a two deep link takes me to other peoples work.
- Cannot seem to find unique content provided by Alltop.com

If I were an editor of a magazine and someone approached me with that design I would fire them on the spot and/or kick them square in the balls to stop them spreading their foul seed in to another generation.

I could go on, however, I have already spent far too much time writing about a site which isn't worth lining my cats litter tray with...


* EG: http://eatgrapes.com or http://eatbeans.com

You know nothing about design. This site took a refreshingly simple approach... It's like a simple mag layout. I don't know about the functionality, but the design is solid.

wanna advertise my website too?

The bar at the bottom runs through the text in an extremely annoying way, and it's boring and has 0 design, tell them to keep trying.




BORING!
