That's just a tentative look- the links etc. don't work yet. What do you guys think? Not too bad for a personal webpage? I have my HL mapping page at maps but I've never really developed the cryotank.net space itself until now.

I think the brackets should be a metal cylinder type thing instead of the green...sort of imitating a casing. A good example of what I mean is in the 2nd Ninja Turtles movie, the ooze canisters...kind of like the metal ends.

that's not a bad idea Gorb. I think I'm gonna focus on content for now, but when I have time I'll see about redoing the gifs like that.

well that's actually different from my HL maps page. more of a 'personal' webpage. there will be a small section on it with some pretty map screenshots, though.

I may update the look of my HL maps page slightly, though stick with the red on black theme. I need to kinda clean up and finish up that site since I'm about done with HL stuff. I want it to be a nice archive of my maps and resources.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do for a UT2k3 mapping page. It will be a separate webpage from the HL one. I could just reuse the cryotank theme/template, but it might be neat to do a separate design since I could use the webdesign practice.

EDIT: btw, http://www.ipowerweb.com has been a great webhost, I've had them for over a year. 800mb of space, 40gb transfer limit, all for about $95 a year. Having your own webspace, especially a lot, is soooooo worth the money.
