Steemit's Front Page UI Makeover - A Very Quick Mockup

in ui •  8 years ago  (edited)

Like I wrote in an earlier post I'm a freelance UI designer with a little too much time in my hands. As many of you I've spend a lot of time browsing Steemit during the last weeks and I felt some simple changes could improve the hierarchy of the front page making the whole layout a little more clean and easy to browse. Let's dig in!

I like!

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Good job I hope some of this is seen by the devs!

Well Steemit is still in beta and I know they will be adding a lot of other features but I was just thinking short term improvements. Thanks for your support!

You're very welcome!

The UI that you propose is very user-friendly. Personally I prefer the tabs on the left instead of right. Kindly like FB page/group tabs. Hope steemit can consider your ideas. :)

so it looks really cool!

Do it))

I'll sure give it a try during the week, thanks for your comment ;)

@ned and @dan, please hire him / her!

well done!

Sidebar better place right. Let it be left to the main content, the right additional options (tags).

Yes you may be right, I mostly focused on other elements so I'll see how it works out when I design the slide menu, thanks for your suggestion.

Great start 😎

great! I like very much to know this.

Cool!!! There’s just a chance that it will work.

Easy & Friendly for use . I like . Do it !!! :)

It's a Bad makeover.

  • You used a simple template
  • Where is the user account there?
  • Where does the user account menu expand?
  • This is like 5 % different from the Actual Design

You don't need to be rude, no I didn't use a template, it's all original work, I can upload the .psd file if you want. The slide menu is on the left and my idea was to merge both user account and menu. Maybe you don't have a keen eye for design but I've changed typography, icons, color hierarchy (background colors too), logo and other spacing and sizing adjustments. If you think that's 5% I don't agree.

Do you have any experience in the field?

Regarding experience well 2 years.... and I just spoke my mind. I did make a mistake saying that you used a simple template, sorry for that, but honestly It looks like one, many sites use that site "design" these days...

very spiffy!

I love UI\UX . UX more importantly in my opinion.

Thanks for your comment, you can check my mobile app UI mockup here: https://steemit.com/steemit/@moonjelly/steemit-mobile-app-ui-prototype-reposting-due-to-server-error

Really great design. It makes the home page much more appealing.

Thank you, glad you liked it. I'm still working on an updated version with profile page samples and more.

That's very cute indeed, Steem devs should take it in consideration.

Thank you, that was actually not my main intention, I mean it would be awesome but I was offering some of my knowledge and playing around. I'm preparing my follow up post so stay tuned!

I love it

Thanks! I'm currently working hard on a couple of posts (mobile app ideas and a follow up to this one). Keep your eyes peeled ;)

Looks great but I believe it can be more daring. I made some mockups too. Check it out: https://steemit.com/steemit/@dudutaulois/is-this-the-new-steemit
