    Cherry,

    Review:
    a) The color scheme, layout looks good.
    b) Why does the Polls section needs a "Cookie to be enabled" condition, I feel it will be better if that is not there.
    c) Rather than the shiny glossy type background for Main Menu, Login etc; .. I would better go with normal bg-colored background.

    other than that everything else is good!

    Suggestions:
    try to add more interesting stuffs that will attract the user and will make them to visit your site again and again.
    Some that I feel will make it a good one are

    a) Have a separate section like "The Great Challenge" where in any visitor must try to solve a particular "Check-mate" situation. May be you can offer some kind of points or even some gift offers to those who are able to crack them

    b) After getting more visitors try to add up a online chat section where in the visitors can chat among them while playing the game.

    More interesting stuffs like this will keep the visitors engaged.

    A small suggestion: No need to tell us the form below is a Login Form esp. when we have to push Login to submit.
    Site works for me. Good job.

    Nice layout. I see it's running Joomla. I've use it before myself and it's a decent system and there are lots of templates/themes available.

    I agree with the comment about the login form. The only problem with that is the box might look funny if you turn the title off on the joomla module but it's worth a try.

    I would also suggest turning on SEF urls. That's built in under the general options section (depending if your using version 1.x or 1.5 it might be at a slightly different location.

    Overall it's decent looking :)

    Definitely needs a bigger "Rapid Chess" logo, but the basic start is good.

    Overall is pleasant to land at. Logo needed urgently: that gothic stuff is difficult to read and unprofessional.
