TOPIC | LF Tips on My Hatchery
1 2
Hi! I just started a hatchery called Starstruck hatchery. I am constantly updating it but I am really looking for tips on how I can make it better and what people would find nice to look at!
Here is my link: https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3019519#post_3019519

Any site generator links are HIGHLY appreciated!
(Main gen I use currently: DalphiaRose's Code Generator)

Any crit is welcome! Pricing too. I really don't know my pricing-

No need to ping me, I'm subbed.
Tysm in advance!

Looks nice so far! The one thing that kind of bugs me is that the main/first banner doesn't use the same font as the rest.

@Nikkitana Thanks! I reverted it to the same font so hopefully it looks better now

I find the initial block of text a little difficult to read, but I've also never met anyone else who had trouble with that shade of blue, so it's probably ok.

The organization looks really nice and you have some really pretty pairs.

It looks really good! The layout is nice and the links to other sections of the hatchery is convenient too. I will say though, some of the breeding pair names are hard to read due to the dragon's colors being darker + the dark text like the one on your upcoming pair and the last pair with Pisces/Mottled. I'd suggest moving them below the dragons on all the cards or changing the text color when appropriate to make it easier to read. edit: [quote name="azureiris" date="2021-06-15 18:53:11" ] I find the initial block of text a little difficult to read, but I've also never met anyone else who had trouble with that shade of blue, so it's probably ok.

I agree that the blue font is a little bright but I have sensitive eyes so it's probably not really that bad lol. Either way, that's not a super important thing, I think your layout and everything looks great! Honestly hatcheries just take a lot of time, generally you're not going to have instant success. Just work on making pairs that you like and growing your pinglists. Also, If you have time you can always go into the find a dragon forums and see if anyone is looking for dragons similar to what you have and offer yours there.

(My hatchery is a free one so I don't have any great tips on pricing or things like that, sorry!)

[/quote] You can also make them easier to read by adding an outline around the text. I found that works well, both in making sure things don't look too spaced out and in making sure they're easy to read. If you wanted to change the color to something easier to read, I recommend using [url=https://www.webfx.com/web-design/color-picker/]Color Picker[/url] to find the hex codes. [color=#1717b9][b]#1717b9 looks easier to read to me[/b][/color], but I don't have much problem reading the original so someone else will probably be a better judge of that. Also, you can color links by having the url code around the color code like this: [code][url=URL Goes Here][color=Color Goes Here]Text[/color][/url][/code] Though if you go this route, make sure the links stand out from the page you're on, either by making them different colors/shades, or with something like this: [center][size=2][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_3013515][color=f458cc][b]Home[/b][/color][/url] | [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_47713667][color=red][b]For Sale[/b][/color][/url] | [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_47713668][color=orange][b]Pairs[/b][/color][/url] | [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_47713669][color=ffd200][b]Projects[/b][/color][/url] | [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_47713671][color=00d700][b]Affiliates[/b][/color] | [/url][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3013515#post_47713673][color=blue][b]Resources[/b][/color][/url] | [color=ba00ff][u][b][i]♥Pinglists♥[/i][/b][/u][/color][color=ff00c2][b][/b][/color][/size] [size=1]Copy/Pasted from my own hatchery[/size][/center] Other than that, everything looks great!

Though if you go this route, make sure the links stand out from the page you're on, either by making them different colors/shades, or with something like this:

A drawing of an aether with lead spool, ruby foam and midnight space; links back to adopt shop it came fromA dripping, heart-shaped button colored like a pride flag with text reading Friends of Dorothy Pride Hatchery next to a matching hatchling. Clicking it leads to said hatchery.
@azureiris Going to try changing the color to something clearer for sure.
@DeathSpecter Likely going to make entirely custom breed cards soon, those are just layout at the moment.
@ofkismetandkalon Thanks, and it alright about pricing. I'll take a lurk at the forums etc.
@GothicDraki Ty for the link on the picker, and the code. For some reason code hadn't been working for me. Also If you'd like to be pinged on that pair, feel free to let me know on the thread!
