New Design Concept... Please Critique it!
I have a new design concept for my wesite BDVnet - http://www.bdvnet.com
The new design is located at http://www.bdvnet.com/new_index.html
The old design is at http://www.bdvnet.com
I would like to know what you think of the new design and please tell me any suggestions you have for it. I haven't changed any of the exsiting pages on my website, so if you follow the links they will still be the old design.
Also does anyone know where I can get some sort of CGI script that generates pages in real time based on a template file. So you just call the script then tell it the page and it generates the page with the template.
Thanks,

Thats a nice looking site.
The title hasnt been changed yet though.
Its a little big on my 800 by 600 resolution.
It takes a little while to load, but its waitable.
Looks good in IE 5.
Thats a cool "Swirl" type logo too.

your new website design is great! But the load time is unacceptable, and in 800x600 I have to scroll a bit to see the entire thing. Work on dividing up your tables, don't just use one big table for everything, and no matter what, try not to embed tables. Other than that it looks great.

I have fixed the design so it fits into an 800x600 resolution and I am going to try and reduce the load time. Thanks for your comments.

Nice looking site. Your title needs to be changed though its says 'new page 1'.

For those that use NS with their default page settings the background is grey!

Thanks, I am changing the background to white and I know that I have to change the title, It's just and example right now and I will change the title when it's all done and when t's ready to be put on the real pages.

I also like the new design. Two suggestions:
Make the search boxes on the top smaller.
How about putting "tools and resources" before news? I usually skip the isyndicate news - simply because they're so readily available everywhere. I prefer to see original content first.
Good work!

The iSyndicate news is just temporary and I will be putting on more original news from my own site later, so I am going to leave it how it is, and also I will make the search boxes smaller. Thank you for your comments, I happy to hear that you all like my new design, I like it a lot too:)

Is there anything that you think I should change on the design? Even something very small about it? Please tell me if you have any suggestions.
