intro pages that ask users to enter the main site aren't recommended without a good reason, such as what is in the main site would upset or offend someone people, and so gives them the chance be warned and exit the site. don't think that applies to your site so you might want to think about removing the intro page, especially as it is pretty much blank.

its all structured using frames, isn't it? another bad idea.

using css is so much better.

Before i comment on the design, should i be seeing a plain grey bg with black text? if so, go to some of your own links such as miniclip and take a lot at their design layout. if you want users to be intereted in what is on your site you need to make your site interesting to users. If i'm missing something then ignore this.

What i see is a menu with links to other sites on the left and text that expands out the right side meaning i have to horizontal scroll to read it. is that right? is that what you want?

i think i would have the main page more as a linking source than an information source.

each item on the page could be in its own div allowing you to control and change each one without effecting anything else on the page and make the entire div the link, increasing usability. with each div designed in its own right with a good color scheme and image you could produce a visually interesting site. text could be put in their own dropdowns launched by the user clicking on the title:
htttp://webdeveloper.earthweb.com/webjs/jsnavigation/item.php/558781
http://webdeveloper.earthweb.com/webjs/jsnavigation/item.php/100521
this would mean they aloow select and read what they want to read rather than having to scroll the whole page to find what they want. then when users visit your site looking for your latest stickman animation they'll find it right away just by looking, and not by having to read very much.

you have loads of content, which is what many sites lack, you just need a better way of getting that content to your users. good luck.

It is too dull. I don't like the standard underlined plain blue text links (plus the standard lists). But then, that's just me. If you want a simple site, go ahead.

I had to use the bottom scroll bar that shouldn't have had to happen un less I was looking at a picture that doesn't fit on the page.
