Hi sadain,
Well you have made a goo start, but for these tired eyes
Blue on Blue seemks to be very dark and hard to read........
Keep working on the links.......

good luck and above all, have fun..................

edit: just found my way into other pages and they look much better....(Home page had page1, page2, page 3)
and was a bit misleading.

btw: Check your text on your contacts page as you appear to be losing the end of the lines under
This in regard to.......

It's customary and polite to thank people that have taken the time out of their busy lives to take a look at your new site and post comments which you asked for! Please bear that in mind!

With that said your site has a nice look but I agree with everything that the previous poster said. THERE ARE NO NEON SIGNS. The only page link to work was 'PAGE 1' which just refreshed the page I was already on. So, I too feel, you still have a little work to do but look forward to seeing it when it is a bit more developed. Good luck.

Yes, the forum link does work, but it is not neon. The forum looks good.

Re: New Site I created

Look, if you don't want an honest opinion, don't post here asking for one. Look, the idea of this forum is to post your site and get good, solid, constructive feedback. If you don't want that or can't handle it, then look, only share your links with your family and friends, as I'm sure they'll be quite complimentary of your work. And lastly, look, if it's necessary to point out where people should "click" then it's looking likely that you've done a poor job of setting up your pages.

Look, you'll likely see this post as disrespectful, but odds are I don't really care. To get respect, you must first SHOW respect to others.

A good person took time to answer you and you shot him down.

To be honest, it IS cool. Take the input of others and use it, and it could be awesome. No need to delete the thread, use it for what it's designed to do.

Keep coming back - there will be plenty more. It does look stunning, Sadain, you just need to make it a little easier for others to see and use. The forum looks really cool.

Re: New Site I created

well, you think I should brighten the text on the main webpage...

and change the link colors or something?

I'm a man I'm not color cooridinated
so what color links wouldn't clash


I'm very exicted about the sight because I have two authors that are majorly published and thier books are at like wal-mart and everybook store in the country...

That's why I need feed back because like I said alot of poeple have been there in its short existance and I have 14 members but maybe if the sight has a prob or issue maybe I would have more

OK.

I think you should lighten the fill colour of your links. They look good but are difficult to see.

Secondly - I would reconsider using words like 'Page 1, Page 2 and Page 3'. It is dull and doesn't tell me anything. Think along the lines of 'Home Page' and give a clue as to why I would want to go to the next page.

A good place to get an idea of what is good is to check out a few other sites - see how their navigation works.

You need to make it obvious how to move between pages of your site. I tried the links and couldn't get them to work. That's going to lose viewers. Many won't try twice.

I hope this helps some and don't be afraid to come back and seek further advice. We are always here.
