    I like the Design !!
    BTW you are the one often found in the Review section LoL - now its the time to get reviewed by us!
    Now coming to the main point >>
    - Adsense Placement awesome!
    - very light site - easily loaded with me!
    - I couldn't call the number number given in the footer , may be there need some country code , or there may be the connection error from my side !
    -The search box button only works with Enter button on keyboard and don't work when pointing mouse on it - use image and place the coding behind it.
    Hope it'll help.
    Regards,
    MicroBrain.

    Hi MicroBrain.

    Thanks for the insight into my website. I know... I find myself addicted to reviewing sites... but I enjoy it!

    I'll have a look at your points on my site and see what I can do.

    Respectfully,

    An attractive design.
    Loads very faster i think thats a plus point of it.The image at the centre is cool.But there is some problem regarding the theme fitting in a coomon page.I mean if you sets up your screen to common resolution then it doesn't fits there but thats not a problem.
    Well i like the ad placement but there should be a bit change i wil suggest to move it a bit upper and also there should be a banner on the left side.
    The colour of the header is very bright, i will suggest to make it a bit lighter.
    In conlusion i wil say its a briliantly designed site.Hope you will maintain it well.

    Hello Muhammad Arif

    Thanks for the review. What is the screen image resolution are you referring to?

    I'll look over your points and see what I can do. Very much appreciated.

    By screen resolution i mean :

    Right click the mouse and go for properties, then select settings.IF you select 800*600 pixels then ur site layout goes out of screen.But let me clear its not an issue because it is mostly with most of designs.
    Overall design is very nice.Screen resolution is not a problem but in some cases very few designers call it as an error.BUt i don't.

    Ahhh... I undestand now... yes.. I did my best in making sure that it works properly at that resolution... as teach computer courses also... and find that many people still use the 800X600 resolution. Good Point!

    Looks real nice.
    Ad placement is great, not too many ads either which is a good thing.
    Didn't really look around too much on the website or use anything, so I can't really comment on what works and what doesn't.

    But nice site anyway, i'm sure i'll check it out more when I have more time.

    Had a better look around and I only have one question about it:

    Why on the tutorials section is the navigation in a right hand column instead of in the grey bar like the other sections? Is it because you plan to have too many tutorials to fit on there? If so then it might be better to look at linking to different tutorial sections which just have a list of tutorials on their page, e.g. linux tutorials, windows tutorials, Mac OS tutorials (or something like that).

    Hi TwistedSpikes.

    My tutorials are all going to be on PClinuxOS. This includes:

    • Creating LiveCD
    • Migrating from Windows to Linux
    • Installing additional software
    • What programs are similar to MS applications
    • How to use these applications

    My idea is to share how PClinuxOS can be used at the office and home.

    I won't be doing tutorials on anything else... it seems to me that there are already many tutorials for everything else.

    Thanks again!

    Ah right I see :)

    Still could keep the consistency of the menu by grouping the tutorials (I know it isn't apparent yet, but once you get more then it's more important to do this, if not for consistency then just so people can navigate around the tutorials better).

    Yes.... this is bothersome to me also... This is my immediate concern at the moment... and I've been rigorously trying to work it out.

    *note* - did a temporary fix for the 'Welcome to Front Page' problem I was having.

    Hey Red Indian :cool:

    Just a quick review:

    BAD POINTS ( faster to identify bad stuff)
    Website Title :

    Means nothing to me , just a bunch of keywords . Try put your website name in it and a phrase instead of a bunch of words.


    User Login Box:
    This box is being expanded because of the register link.

    Seo Wise:

    1. Keep up the good content!
    2. Social BookMark your links.
    3. Submit your links to directories.
    4. Comment blogs about your field.
    5. Try get some Links on MSN.

    Search Engines

    Google Links :475 - Very Good
    Yahoo Links: N/A- Very Poor
    Altavista: 158 - Ok
    AlltheWeb: 134 - Ok
    Msn: N/A - Very Poor


    Overall
    • Nice Design
    • Nice HTML site!
    • Good Content
    • Lacking SEO


    Thanks

    Lacking SEO is what I can see so far, but other than that, you have good overall design.
