Why I Mention Color And Images So Much On My Feedback

I try to look at as many Websites as I can to give Feedback, and if I do not find any other obvious things to mention in Feedback, but still notice dull backgrounds etc., I will mention that it might be nice to add color or Image to site. Even if only add some color or Image to background to give more life so to speak to site, just to make it Livelier. In many cases, I may mention about the same thing (usually about Color or Image) + a couple of other things on many sites, but I never Copy and Paste. I just have the same opinion of many Sites when it comes to color. I paid attention to that aspect more after some people with years of experience mentioned it to me about my Website when I first started WA. Then the more I looked at Websites, the more I could see why it was mentioned to me and how Sites without much color or Images on them lost my attention quicker whereas sites with good color and/or Images, but not too much of either kept my attention much better. I know there are Pros and Cons, Preferences may vary, and Opinions may vary, but I just felt I needed to clarify why many times on Community Website Feedback I mention Color as much or more than anything else. I never give feedback or write bad things on Comments I Make when on Websites.

Thanks For Your Time,

Michael

Thanks so much for this information. Color does play a very big role in attracting people's attention. I will continue to keep this in mind as I move forward with my site. Thanks Again!

Hi Michael,

I'm not sure if it was you (or another member); however, they were telling me about my background on my site being black. I think I may have just done that accidentally or by coincidence. I will probably go back in and make an adjustment on it.

I think you are right about some of the dull backgrounds. Colors and a good background can certainly help a site become a little more appealing.

Thanks for the input!

TomStroh, Yes, unfortunately I am bad about mentioning lack of Color or Image issues. Good Luck!
Michael

Oh my gosh! I just gandered to the right and saw your blog about changing font size : ) I'll read on!

Great! This did work. I am also trying to use color however there isn't a button for that? Also...can you assist me with adjusting my header? My header is Door Way To Online
Then Success. Falls below. I'd like it start her a cross the top. I appreciate your help a ton : ). Ron

ROHaragraff, If there is not a button for color or any other Option I mentioned that my Theme has available. The Theme I use is Twenty Twelve. I can only suggest trying other Themes until you find one with all the options that you want. I will help as much as I can. Now some of my Favorite Themes in the past stopped giving a place for Comments after an update which caused me to have to change Themes. It is amazing how much influence the Theme has on so many things. Good Luck, and do not hesitate to ask anything!
Michael

Cool, I did see i had the option to change themes so...my question is...If I change it (which I have not attempted yet) would all of my content just fill in. I wouldn't lose anything?
Rob

Rob, You would not lose any of your Content. It will not affect content of your Pages and Posts. I have changed my Theme many times!
Michael

Awesome, I will go that direction since I am feeling limited. It's also nice to have your lesson on adding the font plug in!! I used it and learned something that may help me in the future!!
Back at it : )
Thank You

Rob, I am glad I was able to help. Good Luck in your future Success!

I like the idea! I have a plain site : ). I haven't figured out hot to adjust size and color in my header yet? Would you have a quick tip ?

I agree with what you said. Color and visuals on a website are very important.

Actually Michael, I think it means you are very observant. When I visit websites, I like a balance of color. pictures, words and whitespace. Those sites where everything is multicolored and way flashy for me to absorb information. While too little color or lack of pictures with long winded gabbing is boring and I'm gone. So your help in being able to notice stuff like this really matters.

Thank you Michael, I like color and I definitely want to make my site interesting. Thanks again.

I like a colorful (not to much) website also a bit better than a plain one. I guess this is a preference of mine someone else just would love a more plain website.

I think sometimes we get so engrossed in adding content we stop seeing what it really looks like thanks for drawing attention to it

I understand where you are coming from as many of us use the same themes and it is great to see a theme that has had some colour added to make it stand out from the rest.

I tried to change my background colour but have not yet worked out how to do this with my theme. So I have gone for more banners and colourful pictures to brighten it up.

Great blog. Lis.

Thanks Lis. Maybe this can help on your background color change.

Thanks for trying anyway. My theme is 'Omega'. :). Lis.
