Hi. I would first like to say that I have been reading the threads for quite some time and you guys give some amazing information. Thanks for all the help you've given me, it's really appreciated. That's why I would you're always kind of bias with your own creation. Any comments would be appreciate.like an honest critique of my website and would like some suggestions on what you think I could do to improve the sites.

How's the loading time, presentation,etc.

Thanks alot and have a great day!

The url is http://www.thepayback.com

Now about the site...I have a few suggestions..

1)The links at the top and bottom are kind of small and blurry. Tough to read.
2)You should work on a new logo and that goes more with the site. The colors dont go that well.
3)We know the left box is a Menu, so you dont need to state it up at the top. Also maybe throw some rollovers or something in there to make it more appealing.

Thats just a few things you can work on. Your site is off to a good start. You have lots of content which is good. You have lots to work with! Keep it up!

Thanks for the critique. I'm adding some more content and trying to clean things up a little bit. What do you mean by "throwing in some rollover" to make it more appealing... I'm not sure what rollover are?? Again, thanks alot.

Rollovers are just a effect that triggers when you mouse over the text. For instance like changing colors, or adding and removing underlines, etc..Different things ya can do

Let me know if you have anymore questions.

1) The colors aren't too good. I hate that teal color, it doesn't look good at all. I would go for a more earthy or lighter color.

2) Interesting logo. It might work, but I would first change the teal color to a different color that will go better with the logo.

3) You don't need a menu at the top, a menu on the side, and a menu on the bottom. I would just keep the menu on the side, but make it look better then it currently is. Maybe add something to spice it up.

Nice content

Streamline, Streamline, Streamline! There is too much going on here. The top and bottom menus can go - they're pointless since you already have one on the left and the text is hard to read anyway. The drop-down one can go too (four menus?!?) You've got a lot of other repeated content on here too - all kinds of little boxes all over the place. Get rid of anything that is a duplicate. (ie. There are three different boxes advertising your affiliate program, plus the links on the three menu's). Duplicate content is confusing.

Also watch your colours. The aqua blue is fine IMO. The problem is that you've got 5 or six other colours on there. It is a good idea to use a different colour to draw attention to something, but you've got that going on with several different elements on here.

You've also got separate links to dead roses, melted chocolate, and fish, even though all of these things are located on the first page. You should probably combine these under one heading like "Get Revenge" or "Send a Gag Gift"

The logo is just not working with the rest of your design. I would go with something that fits better with the flat colour look of the rest of the page.

Thanks for the critique. I'll have to work on the duplicated content. People complain about not being able to find things on a website, so I guess I really over compensated. Thanks for all the advice and I will definately consider it when I make some changes to the site.
