this is the dj-website of me and my m8. most of it is in dutch so im just curious for your thoughts on the layout. we're quite noobs at it, so nothing fancy, just simple html with frames. we're thinking of making an english version aswel.

Pretty boring looking.

I'd strongly suggest making navigation as small as possible ... people are there to see the content, not the menu.

Choose some more colors besides gray and build some sort of layout. Right now, you just have a pretty basic top and left frame, title and menu, respectivly with content in the middle. That's great and all (you should, by the way use an iframe for content and the rest of the page could be one page: faster and not blocked by people who hate frames) but, it's so bland. I mean, if it's a site for a band: make it "taste" like the band. That doesn't mean use flash or something like that. Just be at least a little imaginitive. You do it on your maps, just extend it :razz:

I don't really have any other suggestions, there's not much there to talk about.

You should allow people to actually download your promo, not just listen to it on your site.

Make the site feel more consistent as well (the gastenboek page has a
total different color use for example) and make the site a bite more
'happy', grey feels so uninteresting imho.

it's not really intended to be fancy, rather simplistic, and imo the grey with bordeaux works quite well :wink: Indeed the menu is big compared to the mainframe. But we wanted to use the dj-booth with our heads as an integrated "theme" so myeah maybe thats why its a bit big. i'll look into this iframe concept for future versions.

@myrk: thats for legal reasons, but i'm sure you'll be able to figure out a way to download it - hint: view source :wink:
