the new button, (view design, try demo, free, …) doesn’t fit well with the retro style. there’s texture everywhere and suddenly a clean glossy button?

What you have accomplished wit really only taking away a few unnecessary options to speed up the loading of the website is the greatest of the advantages you used. I am not really impatient, but I will only wait so long before I click the back button to my search page. You have many options to cover when your searching and I won’t wait very long, time is valuable to everyone, and this will help you greatly, in my opinion.

I love the design and think you will continue to do well, as all the options load quickly, and you do not try to put so many options onto the page, that confusion on making a choice and remembering which one it was is not a risk here.

There is only one thing I do not like and it is not in your website.. it is here in this article.. the popups when you mouse over the words is one thing I detest in any place in a site! I spend more time trying to get rid of the popups so I can see the article, than reading the article. It is distracting in an enormous and annoying way.. let me put it this way.. I won’t stay on a site that uses them. I leave and don’t look back. They remind me of a fly that just won’t leave me alone! ;o)

That is just my pet peeve and probably not the general opinion of them.. but there are that few of us out here who hold that opinion and it is just a tip I am passing on to you.. it is worth what you paid for it.. and they do not even have a category for it on EBay.. so it is not worth much! :OP

I really like the design and congrats on the improvements.

The only thing that I don’t really like on the site is the text. So many different elements fit the design so well but then the blocks of text are very smushed.

Besides that, I really like everything :)

Thanks for the insight.
I also recommend that you check out the heat map – It can be a very useful tool.

Nice article.

If you want to *really* see what users are doing on your site, you should try a session recording tool like clicktale.

It’s not free, but you’ll get feedback and data that google analytics or google website optimizer on their own will never be able to supply.
