Hi, this is a site I built about two months ago, It is one of my hobby sites that i have some fun with, I made the site with Photoshop, SiteGrinder, Dream weaver, and threw in some image ready for good measure. It has a mix of psd's, open web source templates, and premium templates, and I was going to put a forum on it but I do not have the time to manage a forum, so I will have to think of something else to put there. I might have used a pinch to much yellow in the design, but I like it. If you get a chance let me know what you think of the look and feel of the site. Thanks http://www.templateplan.net
I would eliminate the second logo below the first in the center of your site. It looks kinda bad no offense the way it formatted and its just not needed either. You already have your logo up top. Also, about the forum thing, I would put a blog blog in with an RS feed. You could even do a self updating one too I like the logo of the site though for sure, it looks so nice. Did you do it yourself? SEO advice, change your title from Home to something relevant and try to be more precise with your keywords. Your title should also be at the top of your head, not bottom.
The header is a bit long.. I would reduce the height by 50%.. not sure if the reflection area is necessary..
Thanks for your review. A blog and rs feed did not even cross my mind, Great idea i will look into that. As for the logo, I was having trouble getting the look I wanted and bought a template that had the look I was going for, and changed it around to fit the site. Thanks for reminding me about the title and keywords I keep forgetting to fix that.
exactly i think you should remove the reflection from your menu buttons, its not cool, but the design is cool even if black and yellow is not really my cup of tee good luck
I really like my menu buttons, "dang it" I spent 3 days working on those darn buttons Thanks for the reviews so far.
I'd get rid of the extra header in the centre column. Takes up space and doesn't ad anything. Colours are good. I'd put the text ads above the column ad. And change the colours to make the ads look like part of your site. You will get a higher click through rate. Boomer03
I agree and about the ad placement and the template... Its good and i liked the simple template you're using
Thanks for the advice, and comments so far. I will try switching around the ads later, but I have not figured out what to do with the second header in the middle yet.
