Dexflu Designlab update
English: Back from winter hibernation we present you the new designlab contest update. You can find the new Designlab on www.dexflu.eu/designlab still in beta, but in this version we offer you…
- more sophisticated voting options
- same login for shop and designlab
- cleaner look and feel
- ajax upload
and hopefully much more fun!
We are sorry for letting the print falling a bit in the background but we where busy with this new upgrade. We also designed a new navigation to make this update more slick. If you find any bugs or if you miss a key feature please don’t hesitate to contact us. You know, we need more outstanding designs for spring and summer 2009! So have fun, invite people for leaving some feedback and votes for designers work, or take over full control and submit your own design.

Genau, wir haben ein T Shirt Designlab update online gestellt. Der Login für Shop und Lab wurde zusammengelegt und das ganze ist nun auch etwas benutzerfreundlicher gestaltet. Wir wünschen dir viel Spaß beim kommentieren, voten und einreichen..
Suggestion for the site: center the design. Looking at your source code, you can probably do this by putting in:
[code]#page {margin-right:auto;margin-left:auto;} [/code]
most designers have a pretty good display/monitor, so the page is quite narrow for being off-center.
I also suggest upgrading from Wordpress 2.5.1 to 2.7.1 because it has more features and plug-ins you could probably use to make things easier.
I could suggest other things for the design, but so that I don’t say too much here, you could contact me through my email or site if you want to hear it.
One last thing over all… I think your registration is asking too much information for posting designs. I did read your policy, but you really only need things like address and phone number unless the person is purchasing something, right? So I don’t want to register and I’m sure others would feel the same.
Anyway, good work so far. Keep it up!
hello Dyre,
thank’s for your feedback. tja, all things you came up are already on our list. the list is long and has no end you know
abut registration: we know, this is a boring process, but you only have to do it once and it now takes just “one minute”. we are happy most people are not shy to spend this time and fill out the fields when they like a shirt or want to upload a design. soon we will also speed up this process a bit with splitting up register and checkout.
i just say, if you want to join dexflu, take the minute for registration because we made the designlab a very nice place to stay once you logged in
i will write you an email, so we can talk more into deep about webdevpingpong.
To be more clear about registration:
It’s not that I am too lazy to register or anything. I am more concerned about sharing my address and phone number when it doesn’t seem necessary for the site.
we understand that and we will think about it for a future update.
