Readit NewsI do agree with the hover comment made by RossH though. I found myself having to put my cursor in a "crack" while I scrolled down. Perhaps put the votes on the bottom half of the tile instead of over the image?
Thanks for the feedback. What you say actually confirms what we've been hating ourselves! What we're gonna be doing is making the pics less dark when hovering over. We're also gonna be pushing the buttons to the top left so that you don't have place your cover in a "crack."
Thanks so much for your observation.
One thing I would say, is that hovering over the items to show the voting buttons covers to much of the image, can get a bit annoying as your scroll down, maybe it should be more transparant? or the voting buttons appear without the black background?
Anyway, love this site design, logo and content. Nice work. I've also just signed up ;)
That's freaking awesome feedback. It's awesome because we're actually gonna be modifying the hover over the items. (I've realized that I hate it too!)
Feel free to email me personally. I would love to provide you with in-depth insight into Hypejar and would love to hear further feedback from you (if possible). grant(at)hypejar.com.
We're not trying to be Pinterest for men. While the frontpage may seem similar to them, our content really centers around future products. In the process, what we're trying to do is to get a good sense of how much others are anticipating the products. (for example, what is the lineup for the next iPhone gonna look like)
I do understand that it is slightly confusing. It's a quiet launch so that we can tweak it and make it as best as possible. What part of the navigation more specifically do you find is a bit confusing?
What happens when the product is released? What's the pain that you're taking away from me in the future so that I want to use your product now?
More importantly, it provides the answer to the question: how one can find or look for something when that person does not know its existence?
Hypejar is still in its infancy and we're continuously working to make it better and more informative.
Thanks for your feedback! Much appreciated.
Thanks for the feedback. We've gotten a lot of the feedback. What we did was make the frontpage more clearer. It used to be images/videos on the frontpage, but they were now replaced by Product Boxes.
Pre-ordering is currently being contemplating. What do you think?
