Hm so I read what everyone was saying and I guess I now lean towards' the majority's favour. That having been said, I did have a chat with Mr. Brain in IM and he said that originally the site was supposed be ONLY directed at the subject of money - being investing as well as financial planning. The catch: it had to be for students, hence the uplifting feel to it.
Although I do believe that the tone of the site is really refreshing, etc, I agree more with the fact that the site started off with a good idea but kind of lost its way, so I think we should help this poor guy out with some constructive ideas in order to add flow, and make people understand the site!
If I understood correctly, the site is meant for students and the main subject matter should be financial planning and investing, so here are my suggestions:
1. Get rid of the "Mind" and "Wealth" sections, you can the new ones that focus on the subject matters of investing and financial planning
2. Add a logo for brand recognition and streamline the subtitle (financial independence), i see that youve change it since earlier today, its better, but maybe it can be even more streamlined?
3. Sorry to say, but kill the British guy although I really liked the Moneybags articles (is it just me, or does anyone else like them?)
4. Make the colours a tad darker, the breaking news part has to be fixed, as does the presentation of the little articles on the bottom
5. Also, from what I understand, "The Gutman Fund" is suppoused to be your source of credibility (those are some pretty sweet returns btw), but the text inside of it isn't very professional, I think at least that part has to have the fully "professional" tone to it
That's all I can think of on the top of my head, I'd be interested to see what everyone else has to say!
