I’m planning to redesign my site, Puzzles for Progress (tinyurl.com/puzzlesforprogress), and am about to mention it on said site. This market will resolve to YES if I redesign it in two weeks such that I am satisfied with it (i.e. have no remaining things I want changed), and to NO otherwise. My goal is to do this, but doing stuff is hard, so will I actually?
Things I want to change, off the top of my head:
- make the puzzles the first thing you see viewing the site
- make the puzzle archive easier to navigate, easier to sort by puzzle/difficulty/curatedness instead of by chronological
- update faq/other blurbs
I’d love to hear any feedback!
Jun 10, 6:52am: Still haven’t touched the FAQ, so I have to resolve this NO. I did do the rest of the redesign though! I will get to the FAQ.

Hi There, my feedback
* On my screen the whole thing looks very zoomed in, and so it is hard to make out what this is about because I need to keep scrolling up and down. So zoom it out if you can. The main way is to have a narrow column show for wider screens.
* Instead of 2 boards, show the puzzle images more like they are on the actual games here - https://beautifulthorns.wixsite.com/puzzlesforprogress/puzzle-archive - I think that is more alluring and indicative of what you get. It is basically like those old puzzle books / magazines you buy or the puzzle section of the newspaper. And that is great!
* Don't mention the puzzle book here. I am now confused. I thought this was about buying a book. But at this point in the user journey it is not. It is about discovering your puzzles. Talk about the book later (maybe in the corner of the individual puzzles, once you have me hooked).
* I wouldn't have such big borders around small paragraphs. I felt like I was getting lost. Just make the paragraphs flow one after the other like "normal" rather than the fancy modern design stuff.
* Where you have your thing about the book, instead have a big callto action button "Click here to play!" that takes me to that wonderful page with all the puzzles.
The thing is that page with all the puzzles told me exactly what to expect and how to navigate without saying anything. I think that page is really good! Just get me over there without thinking.
@Undox I really appreciate the in-depth feedback! I'm definitely planning to make the puzzle archive page the homepage, and will likely implement some of your other feedback as well.
