    This is the first I've made, so there might be a good few obvious mistakes. It's no way finished yet, but it's at least at the stage where I feel half ok linking it out. Thanks if you can let me know what you think : http://www.astralshapes.com/

    ...it's probably being linked because I'm completely new to this and could do with some help with things I probably don't have a clue about, or maybe I fluked it and things are actually ok. Cheers if you can help anyway.

    Maybe work on the header a bit, and add something on the landing page to explain what your site is about. The site looks blury almost faded (unless thats the look you wanted). Good luck though.

    Create a good/short introduction message above the layout and template boxes so people know what the site is about instantly.

    The header needs work, it's to transparent you should make it more visible and you should
    create a logo for the site. I agree with camp185 I think you should have an introduction
    message on the page.

    The first that is evident:

    1. The navigating menu works with errors;
    2. Some pages are displayed incorrectly;

    Thanks all! Yeah I realised the header looked faded ages ago, but as I got lazy and carried on working with the actual content, I grew to like it a bit. Will change it though next + work out something out for an intro on the main page.

    And Salex : could you tell me what errors you have and with what browser please? I'll maybe find them later anyway. Cheers again!
