hi ssangjune...

I agree with Peo...
you should have some formatting on hover.
(what's going on with that <style>?)

also...
i noticed a lot of spelling errors
(just kidding.... I don't even speak Portuguese)
(just kidding.... I know that it's written in Swahili ;) )

and I will say that the colors seem to work pretty well for a black background site (although... usually the best test of that is in whether you can read it or not... and I can't really read or understand German... so...;) )

but quite honestly (and seriously... sorry :rolleyes: )...
this appears to be a "technical" site.
So I'm not sure if a black background is right for it (even though it looks good to me).

and I suppose that I could mention that the site is layed-out using nested tables.
so... if you have the skills to convert the layout.... go for it.

and... along those lines (and if I don't mention it... someone else will... so....)

there is no DOCTYPE, and it won't validate, and the use of image-maps for the menus make the navigation inaccessible to all browsers, and yadda-yadda-yadda.

bottom-line...
if you have the skills to create the site in a manner which will validate... go for it.
if not... try to get the menus/navigation part to work for everybody (at least).

sorry :( ... but you asked :rolleyes: ...
;) k

As khaki mentioned, the table layout can be improved upon to another layout. Table layouts are discouraged since tables weren't built for that purpose.

Here's a link that might assist you in using a different method for layout:

(Actually, I think khaki gave me that link somewhere in the past :D)
