Home Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/
1. Advertisements need to be labeled as such - all three, leaderboard, skyscraper, box [Chris]
2. Replace Pregnancy survey box with newsletter sign-up box which prompts users to give specifics about their due date etc and builds a list for future newsletters [Chris]
3. In the featured article - what will it look like if we do not have as long of a description (which is probably the common case)? Also the "watch video" seems a little lost in there on the bottom right - maybe we could go with a graphic for this or put it in a better position? [Chris]
4. Most recent on the right side - looks like the words for the second entry wrap to the left of the box on the bottom line - all the description text should probably stay justified with the headline text [Chris]
5. For the RSS - we should pop it open in a new browser window [Chris]
6. Nav Bar - looks like the dark blue top rectangle overlaps the light blue bottom rectangle on the bottom when you roll over a pregnancy category. [Chris]
7. Nav Bar - this is a judgement call, but the subcategory titles when you roll over a category might be a little too close to the top of the dark blue box. [Chris]
8. Nav Bar - have we figured out how it looks when there are a lot of sub categories and it is too big for the size of the box? Will there be some sort of scroll down, or are we going to cut them off - this is the same for the channel rollovers as well - for example the pregnancy channel already cuts off the bottom category in the box - I think we could go with a simple arrow on the bottom that when you mouseover it scrolls down to the remaining categories [Chris]
9. Nav Bar - Pregnancy category rollovers should match the pink rollover for pregnancy health guru in the channels section and also match search page rollover [Chris/Brent]
10. Nav Bar - We should go with a short blurb about the channel rather than the category listings at least until we have more channels set up on the new platform - when you click them they should go to that channel or to healthguru.com landing page if they do not exist yet. [Chris]
11. Archives on the Bottom - not sure if "archives" makes sense here - as we discussed it might make more sense to link to do most popular and most recent, or most popular and months of pregnancy - also, it might make sense to do just one column of "most popular" as it is hardto understand what the article is about with such few words. [Chris]
12. Advertisers link on the bottom nav does not link to anything [Chris]
13. The ads dont work currently - we need to make sure open x i installed and we can control. [Chris]
14. Privacy policy should be on white not black background so it matches all the sites... [Chris]
15. Nav Bar - There seems to be a glitch - i think its only in the "More Channels" section. It will be working fine and then one channel will turn white when rolled over, but the colored bar and section will appear then quickly disappear. This continues to happen for each section rolled over until the More Channels section is unrolled-over and rerolled-over. [Gary]
16. Nav Bar-I think it may be best to NOT change colors of the channel text from Navy Blue to White. Possibly when rolled over/selected we could have this text underlined and stay in it's navy blue color. We should find a way to unify ALL links/roll overs. Since there is so much going on (rollovers, pop overs, etc), it may be best not to have the roll over text change color. [Lila]

Categories Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/browse/cid/10
1. Spacing - looks like there is a bit too much space between things on the top of the page - the title box and search are probably too far below the advertisement - the feature box and the about fertility box could move up closer to heading and search - the ad could be closer to about fertility box - the sub channel box could be closer to feature box [Chris]
2. Again all the ads need to be labled as ads [Chris]
3. Feature Box - when there is a long title it seems to go outside the margins of the pink title box - see cat one for example [Chris]
4. Feature Box - should there be a way to stop or pause the animation from scrolling through the toipics [Chris]
5. Feature Box - should we consider centering the images for the featured videos in the middle of the box as well as adding another one? [Chris]
6. Title Bar - there seems to be an extra space between Fertility and the colon [Chris]
7. Nav Bar - when you have a long name for a subcategory that goes to a second line the rollover only covers the top half of it - it needs to get thicker to cover the whole subcategory name [Chris]
8. Nav Bar - I think we need to distinguish between categories and subcategories a little better on the nav bar - maybe indent a bit less for the categories so there is more differentiation between the two [Chris]
9. Nav Bar - I think you know about this already, but when you roll over the category section the pinkto white fade which shows where you are needs to change to pink to light blue [Chris]
10. Sub Category Boxes - seems that there is too much space between the subcategory boxes - also seems that there is too much space above the the light blue title boxes and the top of the background box [Chris]
11. Sub category Boxes - design wise, these boxes look kind of heavy to me - maybe it is the dark blue color or there might just be too much going on. [Chris]
12. White You are Here box on the bottom - I think this needs to spell out a litle more clearly what options it is giving you - i.e. "See more Subcategories in..." - "See other Categories in..." [Chris]
13. More on this Topic - I think there are too many underlines in this box - perhaps we can get rid of the underlines on the "from health guru" etc. or make the article links only underline on rollover [Chris]
14. More on this topic - i know we have functinality to build for this box still - in the short term we should pick some general links to hardcell in there... [Chris]
15. Background Image - Under the "brought to you by Healt guru" there seems to be some weird pixelation below the logo... [Chris]
16. Play Button needs to match the first play button. It is smaller, thinner, more streamlined. [Lila]
17. I agree w Chris' comment in #11. The outlines of the middle vert row of boxes looks to heavy. Let's see what it looks like w a thinner stroke. [Lila]

Subcategories Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/browse/cid/10/sid/13
1. Spacing & Feature Box - was there supposed to be a feature box like on the category page here - seems empty on top? Also, in the dark blue box where all the videos in the subcategory are listed we need to designate what people are seeing, i.e. "videos from this category" or something to that effect - also it looks like there is a bit too much space between things on the top of the page - the top boxes could move up closer to heading and search and the ad could be closer to about about box [Chris]
2. Nav Bar - when you rollover the category of the subcategory you are currently in, it shows the stories from the top subcategory - it should probably show the list of subcategories as the other categories do [Chris]
3. The "you are currently viewing box" should stay in consistent design theme. Bevel, stroke, etc. It looks rather bleak right now. [Lila]

---

Video Watch Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/video/watch/21/
1. Now Playing Info box - On the top right, after clicking "click for more" the pagination on the Transcript is a bit tough to use. Usually one line from the previous page will be left at the top to reassure the reader of their spot, which is not currently the case. That said, this style is just a bit confusing, I think. The moving of the text disorients the reader. [Gary]
2. Share Rollover - I gave Khaled a share rollover with the "Embed" box included. Will this be a problem initially or have we decided to include that function from the start? [Gary]
3. Rate Button - this applies in general, but specifically for the rate button since it is the main area other than the comments section that requires Login. Comments section has a clear "Please Login or SignUp?" link below it (though it could be even more obvious...), but the rate button simply says "please login" if you try rating without logging in. The only other button i see to login other than by comments on the bottom of the page is at the top right. Given how extremely inconspicuous that button is, does there need to be something to make it more obvious? [Gary]
4. Comments Section - As you are probably aware, indented 2-line comments seem to stray outside of the comments box (probably having to do with the indentation, although there are no 2-line un-indented comments to prove my theory) [Gary]
5. Login/Signup links - the Login and SignUp? links at the bottom do not change color when rolled-over as do most of our hyperlinks. I think they should. The links in 'More on this topic' don't change color either, but i assume that was a stylistic decision. [Gary]
6. More on this topic Box - I personally see no reason for the lines below each heading to extend so far to the right. They should either match the heading itself or all go only slightly further than the longest possible heading... [Gary]
7. Share Tab - the buttons for facebook, etc do not seem to be working [Chris]
8. Share Tab - it might be useful to put in a "copy all button" next to the embed code and the URL [Chris]
9. When you try to rate and are not loogged in, it should probably pop up the log in box [Chris]
10. Info box on the right - the transcript should start on the same line as the heading "Transcript:" so that it matches the rest of the lines [Chris]
11. Comments do not seem to have the updated design yet [Chris]
12. It says "hi username" below the comments which seems kind of random [Chris]
13. As you know the transcript is difficult to read in its current format - I am not opposed to a scroll or whatever you think is best [Chris]
14. I think that the when rolled over, the 'click for more' should not expand. We should find a unifying way so that all of the buttons/links act in the same manor. How about going from text, but when rolled over, an underline appears. I think in this particular case, it is distracting when the 'click for more' text expands [Lila]

Search Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/search?results=test
1. Looks like the thumbnails are not comming in for the search results - the boxes sort of appear and then they go away [Chris]
2. need to mark the advertisements as such [Chris]
3. There is not enough space between the end of the expert's name and the beginning of the word "Comments" - we need to either use italics for "Expert" and "comments" or space them differently [Chris]
4. When you turn off video results and there are no results left, the grey box on the right moves to the left [Chris]
5. Matching results from other channels - how does it pick the order for these? When you click on a title, it brings you to a broken link - also, maybe it should underline the title when you rolllover so you know it is a link? [Chris]
6. There does not seem to be any way to click on the search results [Chris]
7. Should it say display "videos" with an "s" on the top to match "atricles" [Chris]
8. All Results Tab - the grey shading on the alternating results looks weird (like it is not fading at all) - again need differentiation between expert name and "comments" - again, dont seem to be able to click on the results to see the articles / videos [Chris]
9. There should be a bevel/outline/transp overlay when the video thumbs are rolled over. [Lila]
10. Cool tabs for the different channels, but the shadow that's cast from the tabs seems to be a little strange. It's cut off rather abruptly [Lila]

---

Expert Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/expert/id/5/Dr._Drake_Ramore
1. Should it highlight the expert name in the nav bar that you are currently on? [Chris]
2. What does this look like with a shorter bio and paragraphs in there - want to make sure formatting does not get messed up [Chris]
3. Spacing - everything on the right side seems a little vertically close together, need some more space - also, it looks like there is not quite enough room from right to left as well, register and search boxes are overlapping the bio slightly... [Chris]
4. It says 1 comments - instead of 1 comment on the bottom list of articles - I might consider removing date from that as they will likely all be the same... [Chris]
5. The experts' name should be highlighted--I agree. [Lila]
6. In Other Health Experts Box, an underline should appear when the user mouses over each individual doctor. [Lila]

---

Experts Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/content/experts
1. Is it supposed to roll through the featured experts on the top? [Chris]
2. How does one actually click to this page? Does not seem to be any links to it on the site, but I could be missing something [Chris]
3. Spacing for "register" box on right side is off - it overlaps the ad below it [Chris]
4. Horizontal spacing is also a little tight on this page - center is close to the nav bar and the right is overlapping the middle slightly [Chris]
5. Title box on top - maybe change the copy of the second line to something like - "meet our team of certified health professionals" [Chris]
6. The font for "All Pregancy Health Guru Experts" looks different than other fonts on the site [Chris]

---

Register Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/user/register
1. When I finished the register process - it did not automatically log me in, or prompt me to do so - is this becasue I need to confirm first? [Chris]
2. When I did log in, it says "HEllo Christopher" on the homepage - is that supposed to be my first name or my user name? Also, the long name pushed it onto a second line and it extended well outside the bouadaries of the box [Chris]
3. It did not seem to send out the confirmation e-mail to me - perhaps it just takes a long time? [Chris]
4. The Nav Bar says Not Set on the bottom where the experts usually are located [Chris]
5. When you try to log in and then click - forgot my password - it seems to break something... [Chris]
6. The 'Submit' button at the bottom is too large. For all of the "Go" and "Submit" buttons they may look 'friendlier' rounded rather than having sharp square corners. [Lila]

---

My Acount Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/user/myprofile
1. edit buttons top section - I think the buttons on the left are bold and the buttons on the right are not bold - I would make them all not bold so they are differentiated from the input text - The edit buttons for newsletters and for health topics should be next to the headings, not on the bottom as they currently look seperated from what you are trying to edit [Chris]
2. When you sign up for all 4 newsletters there does not seem to be room for the fourth to display so it only shows three of them... same goes for health topics of interest, it only shows the first three [Chris]
3. The number of asterics where your password goes does not match the number of characters in your actual passsword [Chris]
4. There is plenty of room to show the whole e-mail, maybe give it a few more characters before cutting it off? [Chris]
5. In the profile section - need more choices than "asian" or "american" [Chris]
6. Mobile Phone should probablt be just phone [Chris]

7. The dark pink rectangle which has the privacy check boxes in it cuts off a little short on the bottom near my bio [Chris]
8. Nothing was pre-checked as private - certain things we listed need to never be public [Chris]
9. When you submit your information it does not look like anything happened - maybe it should switch to your inputs with edit next to it once you have sumbitted as opposed to leaving it in the input boxes which is different from the top section [Chris]
10. I think, view my public profie, is more important than the location we chose for it - maybe it could go below the headline and call a bit more attention to itself? [Chris]
11. Does it make sense to put the input boxes for address in the traditional order - stree, city, state, country - or do we think country is more likely to be filled out, so leave it in that order - either is ok with me [Chris]
12. When you do not certify you own the image - it says "pleae check the checkbox" - maybe some different copy would work better [Chris]
13. Display comments / ratings in my public profie should probably be pre-checked [Chris]
14. When you click "terms of use" it does not clikc to the right place [Chris]
15. Even though the small picture and the large picture are in the same proportions, they do not seem to match very well - i.e. I look stretched in the large one and wide in the small one - could just be the image I used [Chris]
16. For activities, my bio and quotes is it easy to have it do a characters remaining count [Chris]

---

Public Profile Page Comments http://altpreg.healthguru.com/user/profile/view/12345
1. My actual name under my user name, looks a little small and you cannot read the pink text very easily [Chris]
2. It should display birthday as month, day, year [Chris]
3. Is should display address in the proper order here - address, city, state, country... [Chris]
4. Do we want to enable the html in the website link? [Chris]
5. Should the font be a little bit smaller for the quotes, interests, bio? [Chris]
6. If you enter a short activities, quotes, bios, should it take less space? [Chris]
7. If you fill quotes and by bio up completely to the max characters, there are no spaces between the categories and between the bottom of the box [Chris]
8. I think you know this, but when it gets long, the drop shadow on the background breaks [Chris]
9. The edit your profile button / shor recent activity button and register to create your own profile button seem sort fo stuck in there and you could miss them if you did not know they were there - I am assuming if you are on someone elses profile that on the register one would show up? [Chris]
10. I checked the show recent activity button on the "my profile"page and it did not show up until I clicked the botton on the bottom of the "public Profile" page [Chris]
11. When there are no entries in the show activity box, it looks a little strange... [Chris]
12. The stars look funk-i-fied. Not sure if that is the artwork or if it's on the other end. [Lila]
13. The pink used for the text color of the user's actual name underneath their chosen username blends in too much w the pink gradient. we could try some blue details since this page is mostly pink. [Lila]

Other Comments
1. We need one of those little icons in the browser bar [Chris]

2. Overall I really think we need a unifying action/character that the roll over text does. On some pages, the text expands, changes color, or doesn't do anything. Since our site is fairly busy w all of the pop overs and roll over transparent boxes, I think that visually PHG would benefit by having a simple underlined text when rolled over or clicked. [Lila]

Design Review

1.All headlines should be the same dark blue as on the Nav Bar. [designer - Lila]
2.All Buttons (go, submit, email), are going to be rounded so they are "friendlier." [designer - Lila]

HOMEPAGE: [designer - Gary]
3.Reg For HG pink button on the left--line up w email address, less heavy (we have an already OK'd option in previous design).
4.Most Recent Column-mimic same blue box under the thumbnail as in the Feature Column.
5.We need an img that says "Register to Receive Weekly Preganacy Updates!" to replace the "is breastfeeding healthy?" img/graphic.

NAVIGATION BAR: [designer - Gary]
6. On all headings, including the roll over headings need to be centered and underlined. Model after the headings on the Nav Bar column (Preg Health Guru, Experts, etc).
7. Rollovers: Move heading away from top. Currently it's too close. Find other option of text that is selected rather than making it bigger. Lower opacity? Change colors?
8. More Channels: PHG color roll over needs to match the top roll over currently it's pink in More Channels). Also change the color of pink to match the other pinks on the site.

HOMEPAGE FEATURE VIDEO: [designer - Lila]
9. Re-visit the stroke around the Ftr Vid Box.
10. Play Arrow ROLLED OVER: arrow becomes less trans or even more white than it currently is. Play Arrow NOT ROLLED OVER: arrow becomes darker.

CATEGORY PAGES: [designer - Gary]
11. Use play btn from the HomePage?.
12. Bevel should appear on ALL thumbs in the video player box.
13. Video player needs to be moved over to the left. On the live site it currently is way too close to the right edge.
14. "You Are Here" box--underline links when rolled over.

SUBCATEGORY PAGES: [designer - Gary]
15. The text on headlines should be more similar in size than it currently is. A bit of a disconnect as of right now.

WATCH PAGE: [designer - Gary]
16. "related vid bar" move down and make even w the bottom

NOW PLAYING: [designer - Gary]
17. Outline transp box in pink or make small drop shadow. Remove the "X" and just write and underlined 'close.' Include the pagination in the text box.

COMMENTS: [designer - Lila]
18. RE-WORK! Incl "post a comment" in the comments box. MAKE PRETTY.
19. Change "You must be logged in..."

EXPERT PAGE: [designer - Lila]
20. DE-Underline "Content Fturing Dr..." Also strange font--change.
21. Headline in each content box needs to lose one row of text to make it fit more comfortably.
22. Try lighter blue grad in content boxes.
23. Ad "more" links in "Other Health Experts", Nav Bar, and wherever else needs it.

ALL EXPERTS PAGE: [designer - Lila]
24. Show symbol (article/video). Currently, it's not there. It needs to be.
25. Make GURU LOADING symbol. Add a glow, take glow away like guru is EMANATING!

SEARCH RESULTS PAGE: [designer-Gary]
26. Strange shadows on "Match Res From OTher Channels"--FIX.
27. College tabs need to match the Nav Bar. Change the yellow CHG color to the current blue on in the Nav Bar and also change the text color to match the other tabs.
28. Put PLAY BUTTONS over the vid thumbnails.
30. Place a 1 stroke outline around all art and vid thumbs.

PAGINATIONS: [designer - Gary]
31. Need to standardize pagination acress the site.
32. if only one page, there will be NO pagination.
