    Hello Everyone,

    I recently made the switch from Android to WP and I'm enjoying my new Lumia 925 so much I thought it would be useful to create a mobile site with the links I used in making the decision to go with WP. The site is WinPhoneUser.com and I've attached a screenshot of the main page below.

    I'm interested in getting feedback, so please take a look at the site and let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I love my Windows phone as well. I swtiched over from an iPhone. I have the HTC though.

    Why did you make the site black and white? Part of the Windows phone theme is color. Also, you don't have the HTC models on there.

    Darker colors use less energy on OLED or AMOLED phone screens and I kinda like the look. :) I'll add the HTC phones to the site.

    Thanks for the feedback!

    IMO, I would go with a flat design with those buttons, seeing that WP is using a flat design, it would fit better.

    I agree,

    Be less harsh with the black colour and use pastels as WMP does, blue maybe. Is your app on the WMP store?

    If so post a link as I have a Windows Phone a Nokia 920 currently but I have had 4 Windows phones in the past.

    Thanks for the feedback! I changed the color of the buttons to cyan and made the text a bit larger based on a separate comment.

    Thoughts?

    Jeff

    PS. I'm working on converting the site to a Windows app and will post when it's done.
