Moved to site critique area. As for forums, you might want to check out phpbb.com and xmbforum.com (for free forums).

You can get domain names for as low as $10-11/year, as well, through joker.com.

Site Under Construction
Note: Designed for 800*600resolutions and up.

first up, you dont need to say its under construction, every site on the web is. also best viewed with 800x600 and up, apart from wap and stuff their is only one size smaller and this isnt used much these days, plus I thought there wasnt anything there.

I like the picture, screen shot from the game?

The section under that (the contents), the blue is very dark on the black, very hard to work out. the text links could be left as default (aligned left) and the mouseover color shouldnt be black.

I think you have all the stuff here, just need to re organise it a lil, maybe make up banner add some content, then the screen shoot (or thumbnail of it) then more text under, is the cats head part of the game? if not, loose it, even thou its a good picture but if its not connected you dont need it.
the main text shouldnt be centered either, makes it harder to read.
the poll and counter could be added to the left section.
some of your pages dont have any links back to the index (or anywhere)
You may need to explain what the game/site is, a non gamer (like me) wouldnt know what DFLW is

I think busy said it all really. You need to make it flow as at the moment it's kind of just there. Make the top picture smaller height wise and turn it into the banner/logo for the site rather than a picture. Only other thing I'd add is to use Veranda as the font for the text as it'll make it a lot easier to read.

• Everything is very dark
• You should somehow incorporate that huge image on top with main visible areas
• There are some spacing issues after queries are ran
• The Flash intro needs a skip button or back button
• For some of your logo files try using gif files rather then jpeg. They optimize just as good.. if not better then jpegs. But that isn't always the case.
• There is only one screen shot
• Maybe incorporating the left navigation through each existing page in your site.. makes navigation a little easier.
• Adding the survey on the button of the left column nav. will make it seem more apart of the site.
