    You could do with recoding so it validates correctly ... check your page code and css code using the W3C validator.

    On a usability note, I would provide more in the way of categories on the home page rather than page numbers.

    Good luck with the site :)

    Well to be honest trying to validate every bit of code i write would be impossible and a bit mad ... i personally dont like those validators a lot and can do without em. Like the XHTML validators nag about every little thing and when you embedd flash for example you need to go through a bag of tricks to get validated correctly. I stopped doing that some time ago. ;)

    On the categories, i especially chose for page numbers because else i would have to write an admin that also needed to consider categories. It needed to go online fast and there was no time for this. I had to re-code and re-create it in 2 days and did that ;)

    Thanks for the review :)

    Agreed with the links. Its hard to figure out where to go next. Make it more directory like possibly.

    Thanks for the input quaffapint :)

    Im wondering what could be so hard about searching the winks? It tells there are a number of winks found in a number of pages. I personally dont see how making it more directory like with categories would help and make it easier. It seems to me it cant get any easier by telling them there are a number of winks in a number of pages, and the page they are currently at?

    I think i would end up with more empty pages and a lot more work if a would have setup a categorie like style. My other sites have stuff like that and really need that to function correctly, like http://www.free-webmaster-resource.com, but for this site i have to be honest and i really dont feel it would make things easier etc ;)

    Again thanks for any input, it is highly appreciated :D
