Thanks for reviewing some of the others sites Smiling

It's far too plain and dull for my liking. You really should get it to fit 800*600 with not scrollbars IMO and get some colour into it. Also check your spelling & grammar, some of the things you say make you sound very, very young which isn't going to go down well from a business point of view!

your site brings back momories when i first fiddled with html. simple, easy to look through. then i gradually experimented with graphics, frames, and tables.
i've learned a lot since then. still learning, its a never ending process.

experiment with colors and content placement. perhaps some photography or weblog. if you have an idea of what catches your eye when you visit a site, do the same. well, not banner advertising of course.

i like the simplicity of the site alot
some sites are very difficult to navigate and you make sure to get straight to the point which is great.

As mentioned you should try get it to fit 800x600 without any scroll bars (i have horz and vert)

I like the colours/layout but maybe a dark yellow somewhere to give it some contrast.

The thing with layouts like this is your narrowing your client field, this looks great to a gamer or non-webmaster but to a big company is a turn off, so keep in mind your client base when designing.
