Well... you are asking for us to criticise your website, yet you are using a forum with a portal addon, with the default IPB theme. Not much to say about it. It's a basic out-of-the-box website. And to be honest, I dont really see how I can give constructive critique to a website where you did absolutely nothing save installing by filling in mysql username and password...

How about making that search box bigger? You've got some empty space on either side that's going to waste.

I'm with MueR,, are you only promoting your site ?? Did you actually make the theme ?? Cant figure out what to critique if you haven't done it!!

I say it looks good, but at the same time... if you did no
work to it (other than uploading) why did you even post?

This is not an advertisement board, but for website critiques.
kinda of pathetic if advertisement's the case... you know..
can't get enough traffic.. lol

whelp i can see a few things WRONG,

1. hosting sited dont usually have "google ads" and im sure that they dont have donation buttons

2. tone down your free plan, i think you are giving away TOO much for free, also you should list the plan details (what services, php, cfm ??? and the domains/subdomains and addons you offer, just my suggestion)

3. and im not sure about this but i BELIVE u can get in trouble for using the xbox logo as your own in your banner, it looks cool and all but i think microsoft will get pissy with you if they see it.

4. dont use free page maker code (php nuke, genesis) it makes your site look that unprofessional.

like i stated in another topic under this same forum, the internet is a constant fad as far as design.

that said, you design is about 4 years old and isnt used by prfessionals. and when i say design, its because there is nothing orinal about it, so design would be a better way of saying template i guess.

too dark, why do you wnat people to think thye went into a black hole when they go to your site?

after the first page your main logo should wither dissapear or be replaced by something ot as intrusive.

the page doesnt complete the "theme" you have going on anyways, such as the borders dont go to the bottom of the page and around your content, just a cut solid line thta doesnt work when your orders are illustrated and not standardized

and one more thing, generaly its a good idea to not let people know that its just one person behind this operation, it makes them feel uncomfortable dealing with growing pains of the 16 year old that may get grounded from his computer while their site gets slashed to bits by the saudis
