New design for Gaya Design
Yesterday I finally launched my new layout for the world to see! There are even new things to be done on the site now.
After about a month of hard work it’s done, ready to be shown in public.
I wanted to go for a retro, colourful and playful layout. With these things in mind I got working on an idea of the layout. I really like out of the box and semi 3D effects in web designs, looks different and so simple at the same time.
That’s why this layout looks like it does right now. After a few weeks of designing, coding the layout, designing again and coding again it was time to put the layout to the test. I got a lot of feedback from you guys and I am very thankful for that! You guys seriously rock!
A few things about the new design:
- Advertisement spots are now available.
- Chimneys on the roof that are smoking.
- Oh, try and pick the chimneys up!
- A few jQuery effects to give power to the design.
- Tabbed content in the sidebar to see my top reads.
- E-mail subscription on Feedburner.
- Some navigational and page changes.
Thanks to everyone on Twitter too! You guys are amazing and gave me a lot of feedback! Thanks again!

Hey Gaya, Love the new design, original, clean and playful. Exactly the sort of design I’d like to see more of. I’m pretty sick of these monochrome “elegant” sites. Looks so much better once you put it into HTML too, never quite understood that. The header animations are just the icing on the cake. :)
Quick bug report, one of the chimneys starts in the wrong place on Webkit browsers. :)
-
Cripes this is looking good, congrats on the excellent design work!
-
Thanks guys!
@Rich: seems that Chrome is not fully jQuery compatible. Fixed it ;)
-
It looks pretty good, I really like it. The idea with the chimneys is indeed very original and well done.
To be also honest and also critic I don’t much like some of the color combinations but that’s just me.
Anyway the rest is really well done, good work!

Oops, dropped the chimney :o

-
Wow, this is really unique and beautiful! You’ve found a whole new to bring the page alive and have it look like it’s actually coming out of the browser. I love it!
-
Ohhh baby, it really rocks! Keep up the good work.

Love it Gaya! Website interaction at it’s best, I’d love to see more websites with some fun mini games over the page (pacman anyone? XD) ! Anyways, congrats on the redesign and keep up the great work.

@Gaya:
I’m the guy that said the 3d effect looks bizarre… I like it now though so I guess it just looked that way in the preview.
Great work! :)
-
Glad you like it now dude :) The preview had some different angles too.
Thanks buddy.

Love the colour scheme!
