Review Request : spiderx

Welcome to TWF.

Can you please follow the posting policy and review some of the others sites before requesting one on your own site!

Thanks

slow on the load time (56k)
seems cluttered, to many things going on at once
not much else to say in my opinion

might want to center your banner or get if full sized. a bit slow on cable, but other then that, it's good.

Lets see the banner needs to be centered and I think you need another color in the site its just two colors orange and teal perhaps a grey?

one thing right off the bat, loading time

i'm running cable and it took a long time to load...definitely not 56k friendly...

Thank you

All of you, your remarks are appreciated

do you know of a way to speed php-nuke up? i haven't heard of one, other than a fast template and stuff like that

I haven't heard of a way to speed it up but if I do I will let you know

Your site looks nice, but it is a bit slow on load time. All in all I think that the type of visitors you are hoping to draw will probably wait out the time

Thank you

I got a burst of 1000 people an hour from some stupid traffic program(not good traffic)and it slowed the server down a little while you guys were checking it out!

*twitch*......sensory.....overload......*twitch*.........*falls on the ground*

Lots of stuff going on here. Header banner is huge. Took me like 20 seconds to donwload on dsl (IE). Site was very slow to load.

If you are facing choked bandwidth or anything like that, I would ditch alot of the bells and whistles (like the animated gifs on the index page).

I got a php error too when the page first loaded.

I'm running cable and it did take a while to load..Plus some script error's at the top

I didn't get any script errors but I did time how long it took for every element to open on your main page. 110 seconds and I'm on high-speed cable. You need to resize some of your graphics before uploading them to your page. For example, the Tenchu banner is loading a 1200x500 (approx) image but only showing a 280x190 on your page. Instead of resizing in Frontpage or adding image size tags, size to what you want, then upload. That will help immensely with load time.

The front page has SO much information that I'm at a loss as to where I should go next. Can you add some pull-down menus to cut back on the clutter?

The scrolling banner is moving way too fast. The darkness and small fonts and movements actually gave me a headache.

But I would have to say that the biggest problem I see is with load time. On high speed, I don't put up with any lag time. Too slow? I click the back button.

Takes long time to load. Try to reduce page width to be around 720 pix. That should fit in most of web browsers.

I think it's obvious after reading all of the posts here that your Web site takes way too long to load. I'm on a T1 and I even had to wait. You have to remember that 55% of Internet users are still on dial-up and this site will likely take over a minute to load. Unfortunately, most people will not wait over twenty seconds for a page to load before they move on.

About the design, I don't even know where to start. Calling it "overly cluttered" would be an understatement.

slow to load sure, but nice all the same....then again im a gamer and i like really busy websites!

Thank you

I have been working on the speed, got it to load faster but there's only so much you can do using php-nuke(maybe find another portal) I am a gamer as well and I always found that the more a site has to offer the better:) besides there's so much going on in the gaming world its hard to keep up lol
