Need Your Opinion here

wolf2009 · Aug 24, 2008

As i near the end of my old card project on my website http://hardwarebenchmark.googlepages.com/, for which people have generously lent me their cards ( see the topic in my sig ), I need your opinions to make this thing look the best . Today I'll be needing you opinion in the look of the graphs. Would you like a graph like this with Game art in the background

or a graph like this

Which one looks more slick ?

I would like to thank the people who have lent me their cards once again

Nice job! Definately keep the game background, there's enough generic graphs out there.

i prefer the generic graphs. Its easier to see, sometimes you get bleeding and its harder to read.

Then again i always choose simpler options.

I like the second one. The game background is a little distracting to me.

i prefer tha game background one. then you dont get lost in loads of graphs, wondering which game your looking at. plus its different to the graphs all other siteshave.

The first one looks better and it bring something new to the table, the other ones are just boring.

newtekie1 · Aug 25, 2008

The first one is more attractive looking, but harder to read. The second one is boring, but easier to read and more professional looking.

I like the game background, it looks great and is easier to read than the other one.

Duxx · Aug 25, 2008

Game background, I can look at any other site for the generic one,

vhall · Aug 29, 2008

Game Background looks cool!

JBravo · Aug 29, 2008

Game background for me

BUCK NASTY · Aug 29, 2008

I also like the game background.

Darknova · Aug 29, 2008

The game background, as long as the background you choose doesn't cover any of the information. Like the one you posted

You could also look at any other site for the reviews too...

He's after what looks 'slick,' which to me implies 'professional,' 'smooth,' not 'cool.'

The second is more concise, and doesn't distract you.

If you can't read the BIG "LOST PLANET" at the top, then you're too blind, so you don't need to be gaming.
