Interesting... nice... ARE THOSE?!??!... (passes out)

Basic and plain, but nice nonetheless. You need a better color scheme... Force Zach to give your the co.cc control so you can use DNS to link it to the domain instead of those frames... ARE THOSE T-T-T-T-TABLES?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[PTMblogger was taken to the hospital by one of the moderators after passing out]

Ok... I am on the hospital bed with a borrowed laptop, and one thing: GET RID OF THE TABLES! Also, improove your CSS and HTML, here are some links: HTML Tutorial, a CSS Tutorial, and a clean HTML Tutorial.

Also, I notice some inconsistency with the pages style, I advice you this (as you refuse to use Drupal). I'll later get instructions on getting clean urls.

One more thing, you're using Drupal for forums. As you don't all stuff in Drupal, you can change to other Forums System. If you want, you can use phpBB. The following tutorial is for Wordpress, but works without it.

Also, I advice you to go with another CMS if you don't like Drupal, but avoid doing raw HTML pages, they are hard to maintain.

A few more things: The hotlinking banner is seizure prone, get a non animated version Laughing out loud And on the sidebar, my link should have PTMb, the B is lowercase, ok?

At last, you have a content area, a sidebar, a footer, a navigation bar, but you lack a header. And that is all.

Beyond that it is nice. I like it. I don't know which number to give it from 1 to 10 btw Sticking out tongue but from 1 to 20 I'll give it a... 12.5.

- It is blue! - What? And... why... blue? - It is blue because it is! What were you expecting, that it was green? That makes no sense!

Um... I'm sorry if I didn't make this clear but...

I was just asking for suggestions and what I should do better...

Siggys waste Bandwidth... that's why I have one.

gluxon...

gluxon, don't be dumb, just refer to it as your homepage link that is next to your profile info. That way there are no illegal links. And yes, it is still self promotion, even if it is just asking for advices. And one more time:
Get rid of the layout tables!

Other things:

  1. The new header is nice, but I advice you to use a text one, even if you then use some of the several well known css text hiding techniques. (google them, I am lazy Laughing out loud );
  2. The site's title should be wrapped in a <h1> tag, the slogan can be in something like a <p class="slogan"> tag;
  3. If you don't want Drupal or any CMSes, use Wordpress, it is a blogging engine, so, technically, not a CMS Laughing out loud (I must really thank to Zach for this compelling argumento to force you to not to use raw HTML);
  4. And many more other advices I am lazy to provide here. Just click the links to the tuts on my first comment Laughing out loud
