Me and one of my friends are creating a web site, I did php work he did graphics. It is so far a small comunity, we are not yet advertising or anything like that. The site is still being worked on hard. What i am wondering is if you feel that the current look works. Some pages are not yet completed by that i mean with either code or it hasn't been prettyed up yet.

I am open for all input i can get, if you don't like the look say so, it can change very easyly.

the site is http://generalgurus.com

Your font size seems fine to me, actually I would say the font size of your menus is way to small.

Table based layout -> boo! hiss! and all that (if you care to know why I am so opposed to tables, maybe this will help click here

I get a 403 error when trying to access your downloads page.

The design is very image heavy, and the the titles are kind of confusing, it's hardly easy to pick out what the actual title is. On the topic of images, the greeny backgrounds don't really appeal to me either, it's much easier to read off something that doesn't have all sorts of funny business going on behind it.

i was thinking the same thing, i just dont really have much to say about this design. If this is your first time or one of your first times designing a webpage, its fine. Otherwise, you should try to figure out some tricks to help your content seemlessly flow into the background and visa versa so they aren't conflicting

that is what I was thinking, I do not do design, i do the php coding.

We are still testing looks and themes on the site. All of it can change with simple changes of code.

I am wanting to make the site blend better, actually i want to make it a much much cleaner look, i am going to talk to the designer and see if we can fix that up a bit

Your site is okay, execpt for the font size. Either you content text size is too big or your menu is too small...

I would suggestion, too, a proofreader...

Also, for your menus, possibly images?

Also, you have your e-mail address just out in the open for harvesters to get it and spam you to death...

My input, use it well...
