    Greetings Sk8 Boarder 1414.

    I had a chance to look at what you have created.

    My Thoughts

    Header
    I love the work you put into this. My only thought in the header... is.. it would be good to see the Toronto Maple Leaf's logo showing on a jersy rather than the Montreal jersy that is showing... I think the Leaf's deserve that!

    Navigation
    All the page links seem to be working fine. I'd only recommend that you include the 2 more main navigation buttons for your site. These are: Home and Contact

    Content
    The content you do have. I realize that you are a very new site. But the content you do you have is excellent.

    Template
    The template design and customization is beautiful. It has done justice to your team's colors.

    Conclusion
    Overall... a very excellent site!

    This review was done with FireFox 2.0.0.7 on PClinuxOS 2007.

    Hope this helps.
    Respectfully.

    not a bad layout, but it somehow does not feel "sporty" enough. I think you need more red as it brings out the aggressiveness.

    yeah I see what your saying but at the same time I have to limit the red because that would basically be the montreal canadians team colors, so I was in a predicament but I'll definitly take it into consideration if we redesign later on, thanks!

    Sorry sk8boarder1414, i gotta say the site really sucks. As did the leafs vs the sens last night.

    GO SENS!!!

    Seriously though, cool template. Nice site. I'm a Sens fan though.

    lol just wait, when toronto works their way into a solid playoff contention spot and vesa toskala lives up to his expectations theres no limit of how far this team can go, let me remind you of the 104 pt seasons we used to have with an amazing goalie, his name? Curtis Joseph.

    Updates: Hey guys, Leafsworld.com actually might be holding a contest soon for just basically any fan appreciation submissions. Basically, this means just send in photos of the leafs, you advertising Leafsworld out in the world, paragraph written submissions about leaf stories, banners, logos, any graphics, or anything related to the leafs and you could win. I'm seeing if theres an interest because if so I'll open the contest soon. Just builidng a mailing list for any possible contestants out there.

    The prize will probably be money or an iPod or something thats pretty cool. Any ideas on a prize would be helpful also, thanks. :D
