    I like it but I would make the "news" section smaller so the games are visible immediately and I would see if there's a way to avoid the need for scrolling, especially horizontally, in the "sales" section.

    Good Luck

    From what I can see there are only 10 games?

    Its a pretty good website, though the content needs a bit more than 1 game a category ;)

    hey everyone thanks for the replies they are very helpful so far :)

    toycat the 10 games are the featured games on the main page, if you see on the left there is a cetegory section where there are alot more games...the category has choices from arcade, shooting, etc...

    still in the process of adding more games tho:)

    thanks!

    Not bad. However, there are other pop-up window which I think most of us do not really like.

    I was just thinking that you may like to add in more color to your background and make the overall look more interesting. The logo is nice but it seems to be mis-match to your ads appeared at the top left hand corner.

    Since you have the featured games, you might also want to consider putting in some epolling features for your reader to vote for their favour games. This could help to engage your readers further.

    Hope it helps.
    Cheers!
    Patrick

    nice site but I have one suggestion. The ads dont really match which makes the site looks look worse. Nice job overall though.

    hello cool site I like the logo and the general layout, here are my suggestions

    I don't know how old your site is but I would nix the Adsense and banners for now if you don't get a lot of traffic. The amount of revenue you get from that google ad type in that spot and those banners is probably negligible compared to what you gain from visitor growth.

    If you are going to keep the adsense I would suggest blending it in better with your content. You should also test out a link unit under your logo if you are interested in monetizing with adsense.

    In my opinion your fonts could be improved. The type face and sizes. Look around at popular CSS templates for inspiration on what fonts and sizings would look cool.

    On your front page on featured games, maybe you could put the description text on the right of the images instead of below to fill up white space and balance the content.

    Hopefully you can use some of my suggestion or they might inspire you to come up with your own ideas :)

    Cheers
