Here's my newest site...
http://www.noobshelp.com
Tell me how you like it/what should be changed. Only about 5% of the site is open without an account, the rest you have to register to see, but that's free.. My profile is open to the public if you'd like to see it http://www.noobshelp.com/profile.php?id=5. Thanks!

Is this primarily for completing school work ?

[Ytud Fo Llac]

pretty much, it's where students can help other students... it's not for actually doing the work, just getting help on it

Take a look at your site in Fx - there are some border and spacing problems. ;)

ok, i think i see what you're saying, my friend gave me a pic of it from his pc, cause it doesn't show up on mine...

The youtube video is in the way. Design looks okay but the side blocks need to be round on the left.

you have no doctype (http://www.alistapart.com/stories/doctype/) - one of the most important elements in HTML...

when you've added a doctype, go through and fix your html errors (http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.noobshelp.com%2F) - these can be the reason the site doesn't look right in Firefox.

also, there's no reason to have the top links as images - they take a long time to load...

why not use a Unordered List (http://www.alistapart.com/stories/taminglists/) and use CSS (http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/stylesheets/csstext.html#COLOUR) to style them...

you can do:

in the head:
<style type="text/css>
.topLink {font-size:1.5em; color:#0000FF;}
.topLink:hover {font-size:1.5em; color:#FF0000;}
.horizontalList li {display:inline; padding-left:10px; padding-right:10px;}
</style>

and in the body:
<ul style="display:inline;" class="horizontalList">
<li><a href="math.html" class="topLink">Math</a></li>
<li><a href="science.html" class="topLink">Science</a></li>
...
</ul>

This will give you a horizontal list of links that turn from Blue to Red when you hover over them.

Since they're links and not images, google (and other search engines) are able to read the text and index your pages better... dramatically improving your search results. Plus, since it's just text, there's no need to load these images, saving a lot of download time.

regarding the links, I'd like to keep the same font for the links as I have for the title, but thanks anyways...

no prob... good luck with the site.
