    Hello JohnEva

    I had a chance to go over your website tonight.

    My Thoughts

    Logo & Header
    Not to keen on the font that you chose for your text logo. Nice images but I think you could integrate them a little better. Your logo looks alright in 800X600 resolution but looks lost in a larger resolution.

    Template
    Your template is easy to read and view but I would recommend not to depend on the center alignment for everything. Try keep it at a left alignment for easy to read content.

    The image below shows what happens to your content area and your header. I think it would be good to somehow keep the content area aligned with your header if possible.

    Forum Page
    I think you should create navigation links on your forum page so that people can find their way back easier.

    Home Link
    A little odd to see your home link at the far right of your navigation bar. I'd recommend placing it far left. I initially thought that the far left link was your home button... but didn't realize this until I started clicking on all your links.

    Conclusion
    Overall.... the site seems pretty good but could use some additional touchups.

    This review was done using 3 web browsers (FireFox 2.0.0.9, Internet Explorer 6.02 & Opera 9.24) on Windows XP SP2.

    I hope this review was helpful.
    Respectfully,
    Lhlalyam

    you would need a whole new design

    i recommend finding some competitors sites and grab what you like from each one and work from there.

    Wow, Lhlalyam gave you a great detailed review already so I'm not going to repeat a lot of stuff. It says in the description "Aircraft, Basketball, Cars, Computers, Dogs, Motorbikes, Music" as interest but your header reflects bikes, cars, and a half naked woman. Maybe a more all encompassing header image would work better.

    That font is really hard to read in the header and top nav though. It's shiny and interesting looking though, maybe look for something similar but with better spacing or something to it so that it reads more clearly.

    Don't use the center alignment. and the links' color on the top banner is not good. It is hard to read.

    competitors sites?

    Erm who would they be then?

    Its just a personal site for fun for me to practise coding cos I am still new at making websites. :)

    All I see in your post is a spam message to gain a higher post count, great just what we need.


    To the others cheers for you ideas and input. ;)

    Yes, I don't like that center alignment, too. And changes with your header will make your site a lot better. :)

    umm not that great to be honest

    not sure about all the text centering going on

    on the about me page its very hard to read because everythign is the same font - no bold text or distint styling of the headings (i.e age: - should be Age: - followed by the text)
