Save Jerry

Looking mainly for ease-of-use critique.

I usually design esoteric "art piece" sites, but this one needs to be ready for the unwashed masses, so hopefully I streamlined it enough that the average yokel can get around.

Danke.

I'm not surprised it has taken so long for anyone to offer you a critique with a commentary like the one above attached to the request...! Still, maybe I am the only average yokel from the unwashed masses that still roams these forums so I will go and have a look...

Been, looked and come to the conclusion that this site is unlikely to have any appeal for the average yokel, the unwashed masses or anyone with a modicum of moral or ethical decency so I will not waste my breath on a critique.

Your idea of humour is, if you will pardon my saying so and even if you won't, at odds with your stance as an intellectual and at odds with my sense of humanity, however broadminded and easily amused I may be.

Sorry, but you did ask.

His name is jerkass, what did you expect, kitties playing with balls of yarn? ;)

The navigation is as basic as it comes, so I'm not sure why you'd ask about usability. I'll assume the usability question was a ruse to pull people into the site.

So judging it as humor, it misses the mark. I prefer a bit more cleverness in a misanthropist.

Now I'm off to fix whatever misconfigured block allowed 'jerkass' to become a username...

lol mjp...:D

nice site, a little humor mixed with a more subtle message. But the main focus comes out clearly in the About Us page. Overall good site. The only real qualm I have with websites is the whiteness, in your case, I'm willing to forgive it. (No need to change it based solely on my opinion.) As solely a humor oriented site, yes, it does miss the mark, but the site's purpose I believe is to convey a message to people visiting the site. I believe the message gets through even with the the mix of humor. Nice effect, nice site. :D

It's actually a joke site based on a long-told story between myself and the subject of the site, who is neither AIDS-infected or retarded.

I'm not a huge fan of the color scheme on it, but I can't think of any other neutrals that offset the tone of the site.

(note that even though he has full FTP access, Jerry still has no idea this site exists. therein is the humor.)
