i suggest you make the left hand menu a little bit larger so that "| Open in new Window | | Open |" fits on one line, or make it to where open is right below Open in new window.and give it some pictures, like a logo, and color. black and white is pretty boring

http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ there are a bunch of codes to add color to the site

to get rid of the side MENU, you need to go into the index.html page and either take off the

<frame src="toc.htm">

or go into toc.html and edit to to have whatever you want in it.... but if you want it off you have to go into index.html and remove


<frame src="toc.htm">

no you need to put that around the next so it would be like this

<center>Thanks for coming by! I hope you like it here! Be sure to join us at the forums where we will host tournaments and give-aways! Again thanks for coming!</center>


also, i suggest you put some meta tags in there

the basic meta tags are:

<TITLE>The Title of Your Site</TITLE><META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"><META NAME="author" CONTENT="Your Name"><META NAME="copyright" CONTENT="© Phillip Morehead 2006 All Rights Reserved"><META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="Keywords for when your site gets listed on google, yahoo etc.."><META NAME="description" CONTENT="Description of your site here"><META NAME="rating" CONTENT="general">

Also, be sure to have your body tags i guess they are called and they are:

<html><head>Your Meta Tags go Here!</head><body>Your Content Goes here!</body></html>


The HTML tags dont worry about
The HEAD tags are where you put your META TAGS
The BODY tags are where you put the content to your site.

Dont forget your DOCTYPE Tag, which goes right above the <html> tag

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/;
