UTServers.nl new design
Hey all, I posted this website before. It was very dark colored at that time. I made some changes to the design. I used lighter colors. Please give me any suggestions. All suggestions about the design, functionality, ease of use etc are welcome!

I like the design. I'm glad to see that you took the time to make your site use valid HTML 4.01 and CSS. Maybe in the future you could convert to a tableless layout.

The dual language support is a nice feature.

Thanks for your reply Kravvitz. I would like to ask you (and everyone else ofcourse) to also take a look at the 2 sites below, and tell me what you think makes my site either more or less inviting/nice/functional etc

#1: http://www.snakeservers.net/
#2: http://www.servenet.nl/

I found your #2 link, servenet.nl, was much more inviting and less cluttered. Having had to pick between all three to visit on a constant basis, this is the one I'd pick.

The first site looks good. Nice and clean, easy to follow layout. It looks like any default CMS, however. The snakeserver site is horrible; it's way to cluttered, imo. I'm probably not your audience, though. The servenet site looks good, but the box is pretty small for my resolution. Something that scales to the size of the browser would be nice.

The user should determine the size of the webpage, not the designer.

Me neither, that is why I am not using them. The site is custom coded. However, as I am more a coder rather then a designer, it does get a CMS-like feel.

I'm not a designer either, sorry. The layout isn't bad... it's just common, that's all.
