Need a site review

    Got a gaming website that needs reviewing.

    www.battlescores.com

    I don't need bug testing. I know there are bugs on the site and those are on the TODO list.

    I need input on usability. Is the site easy to navigate? Is it aesthetically pleasing to the eyes? What would you like removed or added?

    Be honest with your assessment. If you think it sucks, say it sucks, but then offer some constructive criticism on what part sucks and what you would do to improve it.

    If site loading times are slow, can you give me an idea of how long it takes to load?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Layout and mixing colors is good looking.
    Loading is quite long due to many java script, ajax and img maybe, but fast enough for gaming site.
    Overall is OK in my opinion.

    The colors used in campions and heroes aren't too pleasing.. You can use the same color but it would look better if they were sharper..

    same for the background of the username password field.. It looks narrow too. the field

    Can you define too long for the loading? We talking seconds or minutes?

    Looks great, a bit slow load time though. I have a pretty quick connection.

    Your icons have zero value. I would redo them all. Icons should represent the idea they portray. An example would be changing the icon for heroes from a circle to a picture of a super hero.

    Again, what's the definition of slow? Are we talking several minutes?

    Is it just the front page that's loading slow, or subsequent pages within the site?

    It loaded fine for me and I like the layout of the secondary pages however the homepage doesn't do it for me. It just seems to be a little too busy to be honest. I'd like to see a cleaner design for the panels that feature Leagues, Events, Scores etc.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Thanks Gary.

    Any suggestions on how you would layout the Leagues, Events, Scores, etc?

    Is the current site design too confusing?

    Nice site overall...A lil slow due to the flash...What I mean by slow it took a 5 or 6 seconds to load on high speed...Someone using a dial up connection would probably give up before the page could load...New pictures to replace the flash could do wonders as far as speed.
