Please review
Hello,
I am making a game cheat site with my son and need some feedback. To make this easier I've added a bug report and a mail the webmaster link to the bottom of the pages these are form driven and don't require you to open your mail client.
The bug report automatically includes the page the bug was reported from, your browser and the mailing time along with an area to describe the "bug" Please use this to report specific problems ie: broken links or images, unreadable text ect.
The purpose of the form driven mail the webmaster link is for more generic comments ie "took too long to load", "your color scheme...", "hard to navigate" and such. Thanks in advance for your time!

Welcome to TWF! Thanks for reviewing some other sites - we appreciate it.
Nice graphics on the site there. The main problem I have is the text - that green is too neon and I'm finding the font to be rather hard to read. It's very rough around the edges which doesn't help at all (did you anti-alias that?). On the right side navigation lose teh "go" buttons. You want people to be able to quickly scan your nav options to get an idea of what exactly they can do on your site. The go buttons are putting too much space in there, making it hard to scan.
Okay, I can't look at this anymore - the green is hurting my eyes.

I have to agree with Megan, the green and yellow on the black bg hurt the eyes
But I VERY like the setup and layout of the site. Although u used a lot of graphics, u managed to keep it light. I like that.
greets,
EDIT: Welcome to TWF btw!

Trying to load your site locked up Netscape4.7, so reloaded, loaded ok second time but you have javascript errors
JavaScript Error: http://cheatazoid.com/cheat/_scripts/cheat.js,
line 17:
document.maintbl has no properties.
you have a small scroll bar at 800x600 in Netscape, the image links are very blurry, the green is a nice size but very bright, like mentioned, tone it down a little, the images in the middle are to small to work out what they are or say.
in IE5, I have a bigger scroll bar at 800x600, the font size is way bigger and this version has a "for rent" banner that doesnt show in Netscape, and you need to use width, height and alt tags on all your images.
The idea is there, just needs a few tweeks to fine tune it

IE4.0, NS4.6, 800x600, 33.6, Mac.
In IE it's very bright and green and bold, as mentioned.
In NS the body background is white and the text is black. CSS issues? The "for rent" banner doesn't show, nor does the scrolling applet on the left.
"User Oriented Gaming Sites" - Why capitalize these words?
"Some of the features you can access now are:" - You should have links in this area. Don't make your visitors have to hunt them down via your menus.
Looks like a great start, though. Good luck with it!

I agree with what's been said already about the colours but will also add that the grapical text on the bottom two boxes of the left hand saide (Tired of loosing...) is quite hard to read. Also on inner pages you get a horizontal scrollbar at 800*600 in IE

I like your site. The only think I would change would be the colors of font that you use.
The graphics and everything else is very nice. Keep up the good work.
