Smack 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Your site is great. Seems like everyone is using Joomla now, haha.I can only find a few things to say about your website, the URL is kind of long and the header image's theme doesn't seem to fit with your content so I think it would be neat if you made a few different images and then made them switch on load. That way you won't get tired of the layout fast as well! Also the Sites bar under the header had me going to different sites instead of looking at yours, at first I thought it was the menu so I just started clicking... I'm sure other users would do the same.But I really do like your site, especially the color scheme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
garbage 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) thanks for those comments I and suggestions, I will see what i can do about the banner images.. and also about the links bar under neath the banner..quick edit.on the banner part I was actually thinking of making a banner that displayed icons of the resources that the site provides.. also im going to be purchasing a custom template from joomlajunkie soon. so maybe the new look and style will look more professional and appealing.. and im sure the banner will fit as well..

Jimmy 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) Hey garbage! I just tried to send you a message from your site, but I got a 403 forbidden error when I clicked send! I don't know if it went through or not, but I lost the message: so here's pretty much what I was saying!Your site looks nice, and I see you got that new template from joomlajunkie! - One improvement would be to make the text colour slightly darker, its a little difficult on the eyes 0_o I'm not blind though!!!! Other than this slight improvement, its really nice and I like the content. Good job!I was wondering if you want to trade links, my (and some friends) new site should prove to be really well filled with content and achieve a nice pagerank in google As I like your site, itd be cool for us to swap links! I'd put your link (one of the only ones as far as it goes) in the links tab displayed from the main menu on every page... The site is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ - *Almost forgot to put it in *)mail me at james . mcguire {{[ a t ]}} talk21 . comwithout the spaces of course, sorry if that looks stupid!!!! (I recieve more than enough spam already, I'd rather not get any more)Looking forward to hearing back! Edited May 2, 2007 by Jimmy (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
osknockout 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Nice site. Although I am a bit curious about where you got that "espanish"-sounding name from. I think some more content on the sides could be useful, but I suppose you're getting banners to do that already.But - haha, more Joomla. And here I was thinking maybe hand-typed HTML. - besides that, it seems fine.If you're going to expand your content beyond artwork, I'd suggest you make more use of the outer rim of your site.- preferably with multiple frames or something, just anything outside a single PHP handler.

Tetraca 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 Cookie cutter template, Joomla favicon clearly visible, marquee. The site isn't all that well designed. Content wise it is fine, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt2 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 I like the site. The theme you have choosen looks very appealing, and the colours look great. Like Smack, I would have to comment on the Header image. The man in the image doesn't really tie in with the site, I don't really think the image looks that great. Also you should change your favicon to something to do with the site. Having the default Joomla favicon doesn't look very professional.Apart from that it looks like a great site Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PlugComputers 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Ah very nice, I've always been a long time fan of the Joomla templates. I really like the color scheme you have going on here, fits well and is very easy on the eyes. Affiliates list on the left is long, but that is a good thing. Always nice to have partners with your site, helps google backlinking. Keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
