First impression testing

Gather valuable feedback on your designs, artwork, photos,… by simply waiting. Just waiting. For free.

A nice new web 2.0 application, fivesecondtest, provides a platform for images to be “reviewed” by the public (stored at Amazon S3 of course). It’s dead simple: you upload the image and wait. After some time people will have reviewed your image and marked what drew their attention in the first five seconds they saw your image.

Whether it is a screenshot of your site, a fresh mock-up, a (stock) photograph,… you name it and it gets reviewed. All without creating an account or leaving any personal information.

Be sure to review some too!

Edit: use of Calibri font makes it look nice on Windows.

Web designer/teacher blog

Because Peter was so nice to put a link to this site on his blog, I could not continue without doing the same.

Peter is a web designer and teacher of Flash, Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver (Dutch). In case you are interested in any basic or advanced training: do not hesitate to contact him. The same goes for any graphics design for the web of course.

While his site is in Dutch, I am in no doubt he speaks fluent English by now.
