I assume you are talking about the site http://www.inutopia.co.uk/ ??

yeah mega sorry there guys thanks ian for posting the link for me lol.

at 1024x768 the site looks a little narrow.
Also the background image looks nice, but when it tiles, it is not seamless, you can see where it joins.
I would also make sure that the site name reflects the domain name if you want people to remember and return.

I agree with ian. You have an awful lot of empty space there. Even at 800 x 600 there is a lot of space. Why not widen your layout so there is no scroll down?

Thanks for the comments guys Im gunna try widen it a little tonight. I agree about the background image it is not seamless lol but i think i might take that off anyhow and just have the background a different color i also wanna introduce more colour to the site in general.

The band is called Utopia the domain inutopia reflects this dunno what you meant sowwy

Thanks again.

Didn't really catch that at first glance. Other than the already mentioned the site looks good. Personally I would think about making a template, and using that instead of the iframes. I get annoyed with to many scroll bars on a page. It can be difficult to navigate.

i can't find a relation between Utopia as a concept and the black color
but then it's the name of the band
i still see there are lot of unmatched feelings in the site

Hey thanks to everyone who took a look and commented back i have started changing the images and colour scheme so please keep an eye as i upload stuff im just sorting out the size thing now. Does anyone know how to change an iframe without reloading the whole page using the links>?

for example if someone clicks home just the iframe content changes the rest of the site stays loaded to save time when browsing.

I would suggest that you got rid of the table borders. If you don't know how then just say and I will let you know.
