hard to to a good reveiw based on two pages...sorry
There are no stupid questions, only stupid people!
Hi yrag, I hate to be to critical but I do not like hardly anything about your website. Bites in amercian terms means its not very good, thats not good for your name, the color scheme is awful.
Sorry man
If you would like help I'd be glad to offer me assistance, [email protected]
Hi Taylor thank you for your constructive comments! You must have taken all of two seconds to think them up. I can take criticism and I have taken it on webmaster-forums before, but when you say something like "Bites in American terms means its not very good" I do get annoyed. For the simple reason that not all people are American! I don’t know if u noticed or not but the domain name ends in .uk meaning the United Kingdom. Therefore I really don’t think your comment was valid on that point at all. As for the colours I do kind of agree and have toned the green down. But also considering that you used a template for your site I wouldn’t comment at all.
Thanks Gary

First of all, the logo needs some work, if this is your company, I would get rid of the lime green, as it does not go so well with the red. If you can't change the logo to get different colors, add some grey, and use a lot less lime green. Only use the green as an undertone, and when used make it darker.
Secondly, when you click on a link in the menu, some of the other links go away.
Thirdly, take away the white circle. It's just distracting and doesn't really help. Also make the menu text a different color than green. Red and green don't go on top of each other.
Lastly, make the image quality of the bubbles ("Upgrade today") better. the text is choppy.
Hi Dragon thank you very much for your constructive criticism!!!! I have made a few changes.
1) to the logo, grey graf spray behind, looks ok????
2) white spot has gone, all borders now have shadowing affect
3) exported ads on default page as jpg's
4) errr i dont know have a look and tell me what u think
I dont know what colour scheme to go for, for the hyperlinks any sugestionss?
Thanks again Gary

The grafitti doesn't fit. Try making the "roadband" "interne" grey, or possible an orange or blue. Try different colors and see what you think. for the border, make it a deeper red, or if the new color looks good, go with that.
The new bubbles look better, but still not great. I really like .png. It's small and it loses pretty much no quality.
For the menu links, I don't know. You'll have to experement.

Thats true, never claimed everyone was. I was trying to help you out, not put you down.
Ok a few thing you should consider changing. The color green and red together is not to nice for this site. I suppose your color is red because of the apple. Your logo is pretty basic and the graphic at the top is hard to read.
Your colors really hurt my eyes; however your layout is pretty good.
The title for your page should contain all of your top keywords, not just the name of your company. Google looks more at your title for keywords than it does meta tags. There are alot of SEO (search engine optimization) problems with your website. Consider ALT tags, title, and all of the proper meta tags
Taylor you cant add ALT tages to bg images!!! as all the images are layed out in the css file. Did you look at the source? there are no tags in the whold document! and all the SE metatags are there, but seeing as im still working on it the

Much better, I must say. The menu disappearing link problem still persists, and I still don't like the green border.
