Welcome to TWF! We'd appreciate it if you could help us out and review some other sites. Thanks.
My first impression of this site is that I have no idea what it is about. I've also said on several occasions that there is no reason why the viewer needs to see a running commentary of every little thing that happens with the site. They probably don't care (and besides, your grammar is terrible!)The two things that you need on the front page is 1) some sort of indication of what the site is about and 2) highlights of important/new/popular content. Get some thumbnails of your wallpapers on there.
Otherwise the site seems to be okay. I would like to see something more interesting donw with the navbar, and maybe some improvements to the colour scheme - this is so.... blue! Oh, and change all your fonts to a sans-serif. It will look much better.
add marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" into your body tag for Netscape
loose all the <<<:::: in the title, makes it hard for people looking thru bookmarks, plus just looks real cheesy
The banner name is very hard to read as black, maybe chrome, or chrome blue?
The site to me feels very cold with all that blue, try to find an accent colour to warm things up a little maybe on the navigation, will help spice that up as well.
Definitely change the title, it's really not there to look nice and artistic but to serve a function for Bookmarking and Search Engines and as it is now it's not helping either and when minimised it looks like a pop up advert type of title!
I agree with Megan that the first page is generally irrelevent and useless to most people, use it to sell the site & whip up interest/excitment and get people to delve deeper

Just one quick question I need to ask.
What's the deal with all the "<<<<<:::: ::::>>>>>" in site titles anymore? Is this some fad I'm not aware of?
I always thought that a title was supposed to be descriptive. If you don't want your site indexed by the search engines, I imagine this would work great, but if you want people to actally find your site, I'd change the title to someting more descriptive like, "ANIM3 - Anime wallpapers for your computer". (Of course, you'd want to change that to describe whatever the main feature of your site is) Also, don't forget about the description and key words meta-tags to get your site indexed.
I didn't find any problems with your layout.
I think colors are a personal matter of taste (at least I hope so) and as long as you don't have too many competing or garish colors that make the viewer natious, it works fine.
I like the different shades of blue myself.
The only thing that surprised me was that you didn't have any Anime images on the home page.
I guess I was expecting one in your logo.
Well, that's not neccisarily bad, just surprising.
I'll be interested to see how the gallery and wallpaper section fills up. There's some very nice images there already.
Have fun with it!

ok...i know that my grammars is terrible, I learn english in 5 years, that's pretty good. Anyways, thx for the comments, and about the title..i'll change that, lol. Also about the no anime image on the front page it's because some ppl told me it just doest look as good, my old layout had goku on it ^^ Anyways, I think i'll get another design up.

Hi,
Nice layout and the pages load pretty smooth. You have a missing image under the images link, the "toeng" logo is missing.
I like the colors and what you did on the forum board is really nice.
And, I love the wallpapers! Cars are an expensive gadget, so I just have them on my desktop.
