    Hi,

    I'm working on a new template/design for my mmorpg news website.

    It is currently on a test site : http://www.blogfanfiction.info/ (it will be on www.mmorpg-x.com when I finish it)

    I'm interested how do you like the design, how professional is it look like, and how could I improve it to be better.

    thanks, ggot

    At the top of the page it's difficult to read the links I think you should make the links more prominent.
    In the header of the site there is a big blank space you should put in some graphics into that space.

    Thanks for the reviews, the big blank space is for advertisments.

    The header menu would be more prominent if I would make the text color lighter ?

    Hello,

    I like it as well.

    In the "User login" section and under firefox, your 2 links to "Create new account" and "Request new password" appear centered and when hovering the first link it goes on 2 lines... does not look very good.

    Hope that helps. Good luck.

    Never never never do what you did with the links. From normal to bold when you hover. Like fep73 said it grow out of proportion. so things are going down and up again and thats not good. Remove the "bold" in the css for the a:hover links and in put underline for text decoration. Then you should not have that problem and by underlining it will be more clear that it is a link for the less experienced internet users. Usability is more important than design!

    The site is nice, but the dark text on the
    dark background is very hard to read.

    I'm still getting the error... I wonder if there's some local problem connecting to your server or something...
