Opinons? What is there that can be improved on? Even though the actual theme is a default Nuke one... comment on how the theme fits the site genre, and about the content, and about some of the hacks.

It has walkthroughs (text & videos), screenshots, cheats, trailers, demos, wallpapers, etc, etc, etc.

Hi Easton,

One thing I would definitely change is the font used on the right hand side. It is used in the following areas:

Welcome to Hitman2.net
Username:

And is also used in the "Latest threads" section.

It is very hard to read! Plain Other then that the site looks pretty good.

Personally, I hate Nuke sites. They're all the same. I also think that the format encourages people to use gimmicks over substance.

If you look at the main navbar, you've got Home, Downloads, FAQ, Links, Recommend Us, Reviews, Search, Stories Archive, Surveys, Top 10. That's 10 items on that first menu. None of those contain actual content (since the reviews section is empty). The rest is just site supportive junk. Where's the content? One problem with nuke sites is that the format allows you to disguise the fact that you haven't got much real content. All your real content is below that. It's position is inferior. Anyway, that's my opinion on nuke sites Smiling

The other problem with the nuke site is that everything is compartmentalized into it's own little box. All the borders divide up the screen into these little compartments. THere's so much on the screen it's hard to focus on anything.

Another thing I'm finding here is that your font is a little on the small side. With no padding on the boxes it is kind of hard to read a lot of the text. Put some padding in at least. I'm sure your target audience won't have a problem with the font size.

Despite the layout, the design of this isn't too bad. The header is well done and the checkered background on the sidebars add interest. I like that symbol repeated down the screen. Make your forum design match the rest of it.

I don't really like the forum link on the top, I know you're trying to advertise it, but the red bg doesn't work for me. I agree with Megan on the theme, you have a dark header, but the rest of the site is light, it needs to follow your header colours, dark colours.

I agree the page needs a darker touch or the header needs more white. Smiling
