Topic: Do I need to order a unique design?

Hello!

Do I need to order a unique design for a dating site?
Will it help promote the site or not?


Thank you.
Sincerely, Asvatur.

Consider also that you can apply little modifications on a default template and make it unique.
Look how I customized redlove template just modifying header color, backgroud under header color, title tabs colors and footer color. I changed just colors of these items. Stop. No other things.
As you can see, it looks really different.

Hello, Orange_slice!

I have something similar already tried it, and I did not like as it is necessary to climb more in the CSS, the colors of the text were less suitable for the background.

Thank you.

Re: Do I need to order a unique design?

That's the reason why I changed just some main colors with other ones compatible with the original ones and the existing text colors. Moreover, I didn't modify colors of details like borders of boxes, etc...

So I didn't need to modify any css.

red with purple
black with blue
light grey with light blue

It's obvious if you change a dark background with a light one you will have problems with the text over it.

@orange_slice: I agree it is easy to change a standard templates to get your own style.

You can do without one ... but then if you have a template just like other sites ... why would a visitor register with you and not the other sites? ( consider that you are new ... probably they are older so more members )

You know, content is the king ...
have not the same content as everyone else.

make your own intro with unique content
and explain why your site is different ...

Re: Do I need to order a unique design?

if you are serious about your project, then you don't want something that looks the same as alot of other peoples site, so yes, I would change it, probably just change my current template, to look unique
