    Hello All,

    I was hoping that I could get some of you to take a look at my new free online dating site. I have just finished it, but as we all know, it is a constant project and I still have quite a few things to do. Thanks!

    - The comment related to 'Put away your credit cards....' on the registration page - it will be better if you left align it. (it is center aligned now)
    - nice page design/layout, navigation panel, fast loading
    - Add a link to the icon of your page (Yearning for love graphics) to your home page (I know you already have a explicit 'Home' link at the top - but it will be good if you can also link this icon to the home page)

    other than that I don't have other comments. Overall good job. Now you have to work to get traffic to your site (that is the toughest part, right?). Good luck.

    Thanks for the review. I was thinking about re aligning the registration page, but just forgot. I am working on linking the logo now.

    OK. BTW looked your directory site. Wonderful job on that. I wish I were only that good at web design and layout. I am curious on what is the process when it comes to web page layout? I mean do you first visualize it in your mind first? Or do you look at some standart templates? Or do you first try to do it on paper (just draw tables) and then try to convert it into code? I don't know what is the best way.

    Can you make some recommendations on some tools on how to get those designs?

    Most of them are just templates that you change around to make them your own. You should take a bit to visualize what you want to do and how you want it to look. It usually is a process of trial and error for me. It takes a while and knowledge of php to get everything you want done. You can check out a few template sites around the web and I believe that some of the members here know of a few, just do a search.
