The website is acctualy quite nice. But the thing I find it a bit disturbing is the blue background... change it to white. And maybe bigger font.

Yes i know what you mean about the background however i think white will make it look to plain as the body is also white, i will try some other BG styles though, thanks for your comments

I think the design is very nice. It is not too cluttered and it is easy to distinguish the various categories from each other.

I would suggest to bold the titles of the categories on the front page. I also think you should but a link under your banner so that it takes you back to your home page from any of your other pages.

The page looks rather nice. However, the blue background is a bit too bright for my taste, same goes to the hover link color. The fact you use underlined blue text for links is very good though.

The title of the page is a bit odd, it should somehow describe the website and not only repeat its name. A good description in the title is also good for SEO.

You should perhaps somewhere say what the website is actually about. Can you download games? Can you play flash games online? Are these games single player or multi player?

I don't like the Best Links section on the front page, it looks exactly like the two sections except when you click a link it opens a new website. You should always try to make it clear which links move the user to another site, and which to a new page on your site.

You should perhaps make the logo on the header image to work as a link to the front page, this is something many people are accustomed to.

Other than these minor things, I like the site, very well done!

your adsense to the left has some parts hidden I think its against the Google Rules, (not that its easy to get caught)

I like the header logo, overall a clean site.

The site is now very good, if you did all this yourself you are really good in what you do.

Few points, however. Is there a reason why the long combo box on the right isn't sorted?

If you really want to be the best you should also optimize your urls. For example, the url for action games is:
http://www.gamesvolcano.com/index.ph...gory/Action/1/
Why not something like:
http://www.gamesvolcano.com/games/action/
That would be better for SEO, would look better and would be easier to remember.

The "Win a Wii" banner should perhaps be a link to the registering page? I guess your front page's main action is to get people to register. So why there is only one link to do it? Why not put a nice image "Register for free" to work as the main registration link under the login texts. It now actually takes a moment to locate the registration link, one would assume it to be on the first navigation bar near "Members" and "Home".

I still think you should add more information what the site is about and how to use it. For example, to your main link bar (the one with the Action, Line rider, arcade etc links) could have a text "Browse games: " in front of it. And you should add some description of your website, perhaps to the top right side of the header image. Maybe something like "Free Online Flash Games"

People usually like to click on everything. So why not make the column captions (e.g. "Action Games") as links as well? They wouldn't have to look like the underlined links on the main navigation bar, though. They could look exactly the way they look now.

It would be polite to say that the box on the left contains advertisements. Otherwise it could be confusing some visitors to think you are also offering Cottage holidays and online betting

The animated images on the very bottom are really annoying and distracting. You should really consider dropping them fast. Such animated pictures belong to cheap late 90's online casinos, not to a quality website like this one.

Thanks what you are saying makes perfect sence i will get to work on the adjustmentments...

The dodgy GIF,s at the bottom are not my work you will be pleased to, unfortunatly for the moment anyway they have to stay as they are bring traffic to the site part of a banner system, i hate them to thats why they are at the bottom out the way for the moment.

didnt write the whole script only the template so im not sure how to shorten thouse links down but i will have a look in to it,

Again thanks for your help i will post again here when i have made the adjustments.
