Looks very good.

- I like the black background. Not to many times I like that color background but you make it look good.

- Bring down the nav bar a little bit. You have it to high on the page.

- Nice logo. I really like it.

- It looks great. I just not exactly sure what the site is about. Put little description in the body.

Brilliant site!

I think that the navbars on either side should be vertically centered and that there should be small spaces between the links on the left. Many people hate frames because they are always used badly by amateurs but this site definetly looks good with the frames.

I don't like the hitbox icon but I suppose that you don't have any other choice.

I'll see what I can make of that, I am still wrestling with my newspoeting script, to make the right bar automaticly update...

I'll try.

Indeed, I have no choice.
No icon > no stats. Sad

I don't like it much...

1) The logo is just plain text with a drop shadow. Boring! For a game site there are lots of cool ways you could do a logo. The way the text is capitalized it makes it sound like "thexer" not "the x er." You might want to think of that.

2) Daring? No, definitely not daring. Looks a lot like other game type sites I've seen.

3) I don't know why, but I don't like the two lines that go around the entire site. I guess to me it looks a little tacky.

4) I agree. The menu images on the left side are a little too close together.

5) Scrap the "Menu" text. It's pretty easy to figure out that's a menu there.

6) The right menu needs more content.
