i worked out what it was in the end lol, but i cant get the applet to load :( (opera7.23)

[chriz]

Don't worry mate! It takes quite some time to load, but later today (About 12-ish) it's going to be updated and the applet won't be there, it's going to be a change of theme and a new login button. Check it out. Try this for now

www.freewebs.com/chrisa2003/new.htm

That's the address after the applet page.

If you only want "good comments", it would seem like we are to assume you are just pimping your site, as you aren't honestly looking for a critique. Well, I don't have a good comment, so I'll just shut up, and try to recover from the flashing background you had - it almost killed me.

likewise sorry to be harsh, but i dont like it at all

[chriz]

Give me all the details that would make it any better and i'll attempt it.

I was thinking about making a totally different theme (Again) but viewing other sites, i'll mAKE it bigger, better and less MIGRANE-Yier than b4!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Tone down the colors. Learn CSS and you will be able to get rid of a ton of your code.

[screaming_banjo]

I'm sure I've seen this before and sadly like everyone else...the colours are abysmal. I don't like being rude to anyone, but your site is terrible. There is no real explanation of what it is about. I'm not sure what age you are but the yellow text on your main page looks like something from the 80's. I'd suggest you get a reasonable graphics package and learn a little about vector graphics/antialiasing, something like Paint Shop Pro, not too expensive and you can create some nice graphics.


What are the images at the bottom of your first page for? Generally jpgs should be 26k or less for poor souls like me that have slow dial up connections. You have no alt text either.

You should have a health warning at the start of your site 'Warning this Site will damage your eyes', I'm not trying to be cruel, but I'm sure I've seen this before and I posted links on colour etc. but here they are again:

Also look at:

www.websitesthatsuck.com
www.useit.com

The main object of writing a website is surely to impart information and encourage repeat visits, your site doesn't have a clear message on what exactly it's purpose is nor does it encourage repeat visits with colours like that. I would strongly advise changing the colours. Also as someone else said, it's riddled with tables....try to learn CSS for positioning etc:

I'm sorry to rip your site to shreds, but you should use the experience of the people here to have a good look at what you've done and improve on it.

I hope you have a serious rethink.....sorry I hated it.
