Hi all, I'm about to start making some updates to my site soon and would like to get any opinions you all might have.

Thanks!

I love the way you have layed it all out. The blue and white/grey theme looks pretty good. It's also viewable at lower resolutions which is better for smaller monitors. The only thing I could find wrong was the fact that you dont have any alt tags on your images. Alt tags are very important for people with disabilities and for gaining search engine placement. At the least add an alt tag onto your header image.

Although this isn't a nessessity have you considered adding coloured scrollbars?

The site is a little slow to load on dialup but does look good when loaded.
Has a couple of small alignment problems in NS4.7 - oops spoke to soon, the index page lock up NS but the other pages seem ok.
Apart from that my only mention would be the top right links being a little fuzzy

I think this looks good overall - the colours are nice, the logo is nice, the general layout is very good (nice blend between simplicity and interest). I really like the way the border around the page looks.

However, I would really like to see you go further with it. I really like the cartoons in the logo area. It would be great to see more of an emphasis on that style of design, with brighter colours and more cartooney-style designs in other areas of the page. The navbar now is fine, but I don't feel that it coordinates with the logo area as it could. I would also try to create more of an interaction between the logo cartoon and the text.

Thanks, I've never really considered taking the time for ALT tags. (though I sparsely use them). I know the site is miserably slow at times, but for what I'm paying I aint complaining.

So busy: The page completely froze under NS 4.7 I would say that’s not good. I might want to get that problem fixed. Hmmmmmm...

As for the logo and all that other stuff: I'm looking to upgrade to a much more professional logo soon and when I do I'm hoping to make changes to the overall site to make it all blend seamlessly.

Site is nice, only suggestion I have, is on the nav menu. Instead of aligning the text right, align them left or center. It might be just me or aligning them right makes them look a lil sloppy.

I'm sorta newb, so don't be affended, just a suggestion.

I like the design. It looks pretty good, although I have to admit that it can take some time to get used to the menu (how it looks). I clicked on one of your forums... I've never seen so many ads on a single page Laughing out loud Oh, and the site loads very slow.

The overall design is nice but I think there is way too much text on the front page. You have to add more eue catching images to make the visitor want to stay. The content is good. Overall it's a nice site.
