Most people don't like the frames, and suggest php, but I kinda' like them. Please note, I am aware that some of the links in the sidebar are not yet active. Thanks for looking!

Alright, it's been a long time since I've done this.... So, let's hear my "input"

Your site has an overall dull and uninteresting design which I belive could be optimized to use over 5 colours, try out some new colours... Orange and gray do not get the job done. Also, it seems a bit biased because of the Master Chief... But that is another story.

What I liked:
-News articles are very well-writen.
-Forums, IPB is a great portal system.
-set-up, everything is in the right place, it's just the colours which throw it out of focus.

What I did not like:
-Colour scheme, boring, dull, un-interesting, un-impressive use of colours.
-Host your own BB(Bulletin Board) on your own server or hosting account!

Recommendations:
Only two, stop using line breaks(ie. ) because they make your page look like crap and experiment with the colour scheme. Other then that, everything is okay. Try and juice up your site with these little pills I know about...err... I meant, news. Wink

I agree with spider. This site is boring. Chicken Warrior i hope you're not offended, this is not my intention Smiling

First, tweak your header a little bit .. very poor quality and it loads sooo slow.

Next, use a more efficient color scheme. If you're havin trouble picking the right colors here's a good resource for you : Maria's guide to efficient use of color

You should deffenetly go to that site for 2 reasons :

1. you learn something about using colors, how to pick them, how to mix them and so on

2. it's a great site. it inspires a deep profesionalism. the graphics are really beautiful and also the flash movies. you will spend a little time there if you decide to watch all movies Smiling

Hope this helps,

Cheers,
