really nice m8, But im not keen on the shot in the header image. I personally would use a different shot. Great otherwise m8. Good font, eclipse electric shot has nice vertical interest & colours seems fine. Just that header shot is wrong imo.
One more thing m8, Add an image preloader for your rollovers. Its dodgy on 56k cos you have to hold above them for them to load.

Something should be done with the text font/size/colour in the central frame, it doesn't seem right to me for some niggley reason? Otherwise looks great, good to see you finally found some PHP goodness :smile:

The blue-whiteness of the scrollbar seems a bit out of place. Maybe if you changed it to fit the grey theme?

Site looks great. Real easy to browse through.
I really like your mapping style and always look forward to your new releases.
Good job!

Nice site :smile:
Your games collection is a bit frightening! And do you really own a car with the number plate "LVL DSNR", or is that just a cheap PhotoShop joke?

The link from the newspage was dead.
I thought the site was very nice - simple and easy to navigate. I hate sites that try so hard to have these complex, creative, artsy designs...and leave you wondering where the instruction manual is. One of these days, I will be posting a link to my site, which has been in development forever :rolleyes:

I like it... but that random pic on the right seems a bit too random. Mabye some header saying "Map of the moment" or "lookee what I made, ma!" or something.
Right now it just seems like its floating over there for no real reason...
Also, there is a slight layout-error on the left, just below the "Links" link button.
Other than that, I really like the layout/color theme.

oh yeah, forgot to mention, the random image needs a 1px black border imo.

Yep, those license plates are real. :smile: Thanks for the memo about the typo... Fixed it. Though you gotta admit, there's something funny about "LungFuSquirrel" ... :smile:

I can't decide whether owning a car with "LVL DSNR" plates is cringefully geeky or amazingly cool.

Thats one nice looking site kfs and I agree with korn on the 1px black border for the random images.
and the number plates could be amazingly geeky.

I like the site, nice and simple and yet interesting enough at the same time. I really need to get around to remaking mine sometime, I tried a few things but none of them looked right. I'll almost certainly be dabbling in some web coding stuff next time around as well, having to do all your news posts and things in HTML really puts me of bothering.
