The redesign looks like a template. Sorry duder, but this wasn’t a great redesign. The other one had definite transparency issues that caused hierarchy problems, but it was visually unique. All it really needed was a strong logo, and navigation. Their typography was better, too.

@Tom… the 3D paint splatter effect is superb, I am amazed at what can be achieved in 30 minutes by a professional designer

The overall look of your redesigned glob is a lot more appealing to me because it now has some depth to it, obviously this feel is created with the use of your ’3D’ paint splattering, very nice job.

Hi Tom!!

I love your designs and always I read them trying to learn more.Thanks as well for the daily emails with tutorials. Is just so helpful.

I would love to be part of this and try to get a redesign for our website. This is a Gap Year non-profit organisation to go to Chile and help the local community and specially work with children teaching them English. Our website needs a lot of help for what I see, It’s not interesting and it’s lots to read as well and I think when people see the website is just not attractive.

As you see as well, our logo is mmm just not saying anything. Well, that’s what I think. I hope we can be part of this,get your help and redesign our website.

Thanks you!

Paulina

Hey Drawde. Totally fine, that’s the whole point of these posts! Tbh I did struggle with this redesign, particularly within the time limit. Usually I would have more time to refine the background and make it less clashing, but it took some time to achieve the 3D paint splatter effect. I hope that you’ll continue to read the redesign series.

Thanks Deborah, I was definitely trying to keep a similar look to the original with this one.

Dear god, the background is a lot worse than the original. The only improvement I can see is the nav bar and the logo. I hope I don’t come off as mean, just constructive criticism.
