The layout idea isn\'t too bad, but I\'d make it a bit bigger; I don\'t like small content boxes which make me scroll to read the whole message. The idea is good, but your navigation colour bar should be more inline with your site colours. I like the organization of the site, you\'ve done a good job with it /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

I love small sites, lol... Sorry but thats not gonna change /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> lol

With the navigation, I made them diffrent colours so they would stand out... Because I reckon if they were sort of black white and red it would look really dull

and thanks for the comments they are much appreciated /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Ya.. I agree with Adaera on this one. It is a bit small but other than that it\'s pretty nice. I think that the color navigation is very not my style lol. I don\'t like the fact its a \"click and guess\" type thing.

well its and improvement from your last site, much more pleasing to the eye but i really gotta agree and say the layout is way too small, if you made it larger perhaps you could fix the click and guess link, i know you have the Alt=\"...blah\" thing but its not enough, some users may not hold their mouse over the link/image long enough to notice.

Overall not a bad site at all just the size and the links put it down.

I like it, because it is an original design. The links are an interesting idea, but in the end not practical. You don't have to have text, but maybe some icons instead.

I like the colours, the micro size is certainly becoming more popular, and it looks good. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Suggestions-
- Spice up the content - plain white text isn't exciting - try images, different colours and fonts etc.
- Take out the red scrollbar on the main site - because you use iframes it will never scroll, best not to draw the attention away from the site.

Well, there are javascripts out there that do sort of a \"tooltip\" right when you put your mouse over it. I know at dynamicdrive.com they have some really nice ones. Ones that change color, font, size, different follows of the mouse, etc.. This could just get rid of the click and guess links ;]

Ok wow lots of replys lol...

Ok,

Hoax - I've got "Alt Things" heh heh heh /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> But I do agree its not enough /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Trinity - I'll probably look at "spicing it up" last, because I've got alot to learn with webdesign (and graphics lol)

Josh - THANK YOU /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' /> /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' /> /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' /> lol I was looking for something like that (I havn't had a look yet, but by the description they sound just right) I was looking for something like FightingForce007 used to have... They looked really cool

And to everyone... I don't think I'm going to make it any bigger... I spent awhile making the website and I'm really busy with school and stuff...

Thank you all for the comments, all were very helpfull /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Okie dokie, I've added tooltips to the navigation thing (I can't thank you enough for that link Josh lol) and as Trinity suggested I got rid of the scrollbar colours from the main site, I'm going to start working on "spicing it up" (as Trinity said) next, but sorry to say the size isn't going to change /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />
