: Where to get web-design critiques and suggestions? Where do you get you design critics for your project, particularly on web design? A friend had suggested to me a website where people critique

@Barnes313

There are sites such at Criticue: www.criticue.com/ It's Peer-To-Peer reviewing site i.e. you review a design of a site for a point. Every point obtained is a review on the site/s you submit.
Criticue is free to use but you don't get feedback instantly. It can take between one to five days to receive feedback.

Another site that would come in handy is UserTest.io: usertest.io They do remote user testing i.e. they have testers who you can choose from to review your site and comment on anything you'd like e.g. you set them a task to sign-up and comment on the design and layout as they browse the page.
Their prices range from - per tester.

I hope it helps!

This might be exactly what you are looking for: hunie.co - Hunie is a community that connects designers, founders and developers for design feedback.

Good luck,

It is not the cheapest option, but the best quality feedback will be from a professional graphic designer, and professionals do not do unpaid work except on a pro bono basis.

I'd recommend working through a directory and finding someone who gives the right impression over one of the bid-for-a-job sites, although I've heard plenty of success stories with the latter.

MikeNGarrett has posted the best ones. I just want to add that if you pay for a premium deviantArt account, you can also use their formal critique request system. Though it will still be public (otherwise no one can see your work to critique it). However, there are so many projects posted on dA, you're not likely to be featured on their frontpage. And even if you are, it'll only be there for a day.

Behance also allows people to comment on your posted projects, but this isn't a formal critique system. Though the designers on Behance are generally of higher caliber than on dA.

There are also a few sites like Dribbble that are for designers to post images of whatever they're working on to get feedback. I can't remember the other ones, but I'll post them if I can find them later.

The biggest one I've heard of is pleasecritiqueme.com/. It seems like they've stopped providing critiques for whatever reason (have been dark for almost a year).

There might be an avenue here for design critiques, but I think the idea is to provide more definitive answers here to questions that are more black and white than grey.

Really, the best place to get critiques is from your peers and colleagues. You can't beat a back-and-forth critique where you have to defend your work and your design decisions.
