First Website. Need some critiques.

Hey everyone,

I'd appreciate it if you would have a look at my website and let me know what you think. It's my first one so I'm all ears for advice.

Gaming-Computers.net

Thanks,

The site looks quite neat.
I would consider the following changes:
1. lighten the font on the logo background
2. place some small computer/gaming images to the right of the logo to make the page look more colorful.
3. Use a much darker font for the text navigation links, so that they stand out better.
4. Consider using a different font which looks more hi-tech in line with the subject of the site.

Thanks for the insite. I lightened the logo and changed the link color. I think your right with the images. I'm going to add some as well.

Layout looks good, but I'd have the navigation area fill the cell on the left. I'd also lose the borders on the tables. There also appears to be an empty cell at the bottom of the table.

Plenty of content.

Graphics aren't so good.

Not bad... keep up the good work

I would reccomend using the font Trebuchet MS because it looks more "Computer Like", also the fade line around the navagation img
dosen't look that nice.

If i didn't know better i would swear the imgs were made in windows paint.

LOL

No I made the images in photoshop, I'm just not very good at making graphics yet. Thanks for the tip on the font I'll try it out.
