This week I will be redesigning: The Yearbook Ladies.
In the space of 5 minutes I can identify some of the key strengths and weaknesses of this design, and sketch out a mockup.
As always, I was limited by the 30 minute time-frame, but I tried to improve upon several of The Yearbook Ladie’s features, adding a few design flourishes and a clearer layout that promoted content over wasted space:
Here is a quick comparison between the original design and my 30 minute redesign. Sure, my design could be more polished, but I believe that a lot of the basic elements have been improved upon, creating a more pleasant browsing experience.
You can have the chance to have your website redesigned in next weeks post. All you need to do is leave a comment to this post with your website address and why you think it needs a redesign.
NOTE: I can only accept sites with English content, as foreign language websites are simply too hard for me to work with.
So please, leave a comment today for a chance to have your website redesigned next week!

Just wanted to let you know that I’ve subscribed to this blog for quite a while and the 30 minute re-designs are great!
Thanks so much DebC, I appreciate the support
. I hope that you continue to enjoy our 30 min redesign series.
That’s a great result, Tom. Looks really professional and stylish and, crucially, projects far more clearly what the girls do in their work. Love it.
Thanks Mark! That’s exactly what I was going for with this redesign, to help clarify their business.
I kind of need inspiration, if you could redesign my site or give me some tips, I’d be very grateful
