Cool, The graphics are excellent. The font is a little tough to read at first but it is a visually cohesive theme.

You have talent!

I like it apart from the font which I'm not too keen on.

I reckon you should indent the text slightly in the main content area as well.

You also have 38 errors in you're code, and the site would be better all-round if you sorted them out

But its basically a decent site - well done

I like your web, it is good. Navigation toll ang graphics are excellent.
Will be a good put the metas keywords and description.

Good luck

Font, font size and padding could be better.

I would lose the popup links, at least until I was established.

This might be something I would visit again. Is it to be a MMOLRPG?

That font is IMPOSSIBLE to read ! Since I happen to have the font Papyrus on my machine, it uses it and its horrible. Anyone who does NOT have that font will see something entirely different, one of the default substitution fonts.

The big beveled buttons are soooooo 1997, I don't care for them at all.

The titles on your right side 'buttons' are badly contrasted against the backgrounds.

The code.. I won't even go there, it's a mess of nasty nested tables with a lot of validation errors.

At first it might be hard to read the font, but i have already accustomed to it, and after few minutes of reading you should also understand it clearly.

Those 'buttons' as you call them are only temporary to fill space, originally that is media panel, so basically it will change as soon as there will be enough media to put thumbnails on.

Talking about the code, i'm not the best html programmer. As for errors, they might be releated to AdBrite code, not to web site code, because in my webmaster tools for firefox i don't have any errors. If you talk about xhtml validator then yes, there i have about 98 errors, most of them are for unwritted alt attributes and adbrite code.

Yes, this is an MMORPG project

my suggestion is to do something with the menu - at least make those links red

Now i am busy with game development, but in last week of August i will have site update, it will be graphical and content update, one of the content updates will be flash maps for World + very much other content, basically content will increase for 30-50 %

I think this is the wrong way to go about it. Somewhere between 100% and 150% of people who cannot read something initially will give up on it right away. Ok maybe this is slightly exaggerated but you might still recognize this well known fact. I can read it, but I also dont see the papyrus from the work computer and maybe you changes it.

I would rethink the big chrome looking bars too, they make it look way too "homestead-free-site." Tables... tables are out. They have been replaced by css and Divs. I made the change, you should too.

You are right about these all things, but that takes time to change, i previously posted, that i'll have site update week, and then i'll make also changes to code, and will think about replacing font, with some of standard ones.

Thanks to all people that have replied and will do it, because in this way i will be able to greatly improve site, and make it more people friendly, also more professional.

Best regards,

Didn't know adbrite had such, but thanks for telling me, i will try to find them in cpanel and remove them.

Edit: Ok i found them, it's called active interestitials, and removed them.

I like your site design

**flann** · 09-09-2007, 05:43 PM

looks good, I agree though the links on the left hand navigation are a little hard to read.

**freelancevote** · 09-09-2007, 05:46 PM

The website is kind of neat. I'm not so sure what it's about though.

**Sir P** · 09-10-2007, 07:10 AM

I think your website is fantastic... graphics are indeed very good.. your are well on the right track..

only thing id say is that when you click the menu icons the whole page gets longer... you could use div height or css to get round this

best of luck
