For the past three years, RantRave has worked with a talented graphic designer and project manager named Corey Smith, with Lift Design. Everything you seen on this site was designed by him and he was very active in the initial design and functionality of the site.

Throughout the creation and design process of RantRave, Corey was very hands on with the project, making great suggestions along the way which made for a more user-friendly and visually appealing environment. He also pointed out possible design flaws, helping us to see potential headaches down the road.

In addition to designing websites, he also specializes in corporate identity, logos, and print work, such as brochures, invitations and posters. Some of his other projects include website design for Grand Hyatt Maui, print ads and identity for Kane Architecture and concert posters for Modern Arms.

All in all, Corey Smith and Lift Design did a fantastic job on designing the site and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

15 months ago: Great reference.

I don't know what your plans are for the future of RR, but I have some suggestions to make it a little more user friendly. The guys helped me figure out how to get around the picture time out issue which helped a lot.

Here are some suggestions:

1. Clearer profile. I wrote about using RR to make some money. I think a lot of people just sign up to write and interact, which is great for you guys. In your directions about signing up for Adsense you don't mention how people can use their RR profile. The only way I can access anything that is specific to my profile is by clicking on my name. Even if I click on "my profile" it doesn't give my user name in the URL. You should let them know the directions of what to add to get Adsense. I don't even know if using the RR user profile works to get an Adsense account, so some clarity is a good idea.

2. RSS feed. I'd love to submit my RRs to a feed. You would get more views on the site overall if we had feeds. If we currently do then I haven't been able to figure out how to do it. I know you can subscribe to a post, but I'm talking the whole person.

3. Add Analytics. I want to know where my traffic comes from but there is no way to tell. I know that traffic is higher, usually, if the post goes out to G News, and I aim to get out there every time. However, since RR is a PR 3 site it doesn't always have to highest SE ranking. When people do find me I'd like to know what keywords they use and how they find me. I know that many sites offer the ability to use Analytics. Even if it's not Google Analytics I'd still like to use something.

4. Obviously, the site was hit w/spam. The 30 min post doesn't work. You should block IPs perhaps. I clicked on write Rant, didn't write it, made some comments, closed the write window, click on write Rave and it told me to wait 24 minutes. If it's not letting us write cause we posted comments that needs fixing.

Thanks.
