    There are a few places where your English translation isn't quite right - actually I feel quite bad pointing that out because on the whole it is very very good (and a damn site better than my Malaysian!)

    But, the one thing that did stand out translation wise is where you have plural of the word contest - it should be "contests".

    So, whilst...
    "Instant access to contest archive"
    ...is correct, the following...
    "More than 20 new contest added everyday"
    ...is incorrect and should read...
    "More than 20 new contests added everyday"

    There are quite a few examples of that on your page.

    And one other thing, I believe that putting the words "Other Links" as a label for what are actually Google adverts is against Google's TOS and could get you banned. You are not meant to say anything that suggests they are anything other than PPC adverts, and you're best not saying anything at all.

    Hi Nick. Thank you very much! Yeah, my english is very bad. Still learning while carrying my dictionary around. Hopefully I can improve it in the future.

    As for the Google I never know about it and thank for highlighting it. I'll do some changes right away.

    Any other comment and advice is highly appreciated :)

    Cheers!

    No, your English really is very very good! Please don't take my comment as a criticism. There are a lot of native English speakers who don't write as well as you do!

    Hi, try to create borders for color blocks and change font size a bit, because current size makes your site slightly unreadable.

    Thanks for all the comments and suggestion. I've make some changes but still havent added any CSS for the hovering effect. Between these 2 version, which one do you like more?

    1) Contest Portal A
    2) Contest Portal B

    Cheers!
