hi, i want you all to take a look at my site. http://computer-tom.com sorry for the amount of ads, need to get my server up and running. hope you like it :D

I have to be honest, your site just looks cluttered, the main page looks cluttered, the menu could do with some work, its too.......How can i put this nicley,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hard to use, the Add's i can understand, but the information just looks like i said, cluttered.

Sorry to sound horrable but its better to hear some contructitave critticum, you did a good job, but it could still do with some work.

DOn't take it the wrong way, its better to hear the truth.

thank you, all the input i can get will help me make it better, so dont hold back :) also try to point out a detail that is not made well, so i know where to focus. thanks again computer_tom p.s. this isn't the lates version anyway am too lazy to upload lol

i can always help if you want, i quite niffty with HTML

Im afraid im going to have to agree with XcOM. There is nothing wrong with the content in the site. But the way you have layed it out makes it look very hectic and not very user friendly. Also i would work on the colours each page uses a completely differnt colour scheme i would stick to one you like and use it throughout the site.

Sorry if anything i have said sounds offensive in anyway i tryed to say it as nicely as i could but you asked for all the imput you could get to improve the site so that is what i have tried to give you.

ok, everyone i understand that you dont want to sound offencive but tell me the truth, i am fine with it (i would rather every one lie alittle tell me they hate it than every one lie and tell me they love it) :)

i like the idea for the menu, but it needs to be a little more attractive (i suppose larger font and different colors but i dunno its more or less a feeling i have about it but im sure if u play around with it u can make it look awesome), as for the rest of the site i really liked how u did the mobo pic and the links on diff parts of it, i was impressed (im guessing ur gonna expand and go more in depth on each aspect of the comp as the site develops more, right?). also on the home page id loose the collage and try indivual fully developed pics that are sized and labeled in a manner that looks organized and profesional. Im not a web editing genious just a decently educated comp guy with some constructive criticism. i also agree with jsb666 about the color shceme and staying consistent throughout the site, just makes it look a lot more profesional and more pleasing to the eye.

ya, i still have alot of of work i will doing on those parts, and on the tv part.

[computer_tom]

here, i made the menu "updated", made it more user friendly and larger font. Old one --http://computer-tom.com new -- http://s46.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2U8YVL628D8Y91YJK0XTCLBXYY

Ok you asked people to be honest
I just went through all your pages and as a personal home page its fine.
here's some hard criticism:

- The banner add is wider than most of your pages and all your pages are left justified. Since you have to have a banner ad use it to set the width of your pages. Organize things into columns (do NOT center everything either)
- Ditch the pop-out menu its awkward and its only on the home page. and it doesn't have its own space. make a column for it so it isn't sitting ontop of your content when its closed. Personally I'd lose it.
- you might want to "encrypt" you e-mail address on the home page (i.e replace the "@" with "[at]" so the spam bots don't add you to a bunch of lists.
- Create a home page style rather than a collage of BS and SG-1 photos Then use this theme throughout you're site. Right now it looks like a fansite. Make it YOU'RE site. Include fan stuff but don't make it the dominate thing. Feature what you've done more prominently (like your computer)
- "Cool Programs" please tell me you aren't serious that NOTEPAD is a cool prgram. I assume its a placeholder.
- you're disclaimer has got to go

"All material on this site is under copyright law and would be criminal to not recieve authorization of the owner. This site doesn't take responsibility to any copyright infringements made." In the first sentance you claim copyrights but haven't yourself aknowledged what you are copying like the pictures on your home page. I'm sure all of them are copyrighted. The second sentance doesn't make sense. Don't try to be a lawyer if you aren't one.
-Keep your font sizes more consistant. For example you're "cool websites" page is all over the place size-wise.
- Ditch the "bad sites" idea. Ever heard of glass houses?

If you are using Notepad to edit this site then you are beating yourself with barbed wire because keeping all the links straight will get exponentialy harder to do. Look for a webpage editor like Frontpage, pagemill or GoLive. Heck find a shareware thing to help you.

Finally have a look at this www.webpagesthatsuck.com (http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/) Vincent Flanders has been teaching Good Webdesign for many years and has a lot of great tips. He does it by showing you what NOT to do.

I know this was harsh. Don't take it personaly.

I like it.. menu is nice.. colors are mixed, not that good.. page is a bit messy.. and it may need a theme or something to make it all homogenous... i do like stargate :) oh, using tables to arrange your conctent is nice... ah, i agree with Cevinzol :) but i do believe your idea is nice... just more consistency is needed :)

[computer_tom]

thank you, you (Cevinzol) pointed out alot of points i will change right away, remember, i can't control the pop-ups untill i get my server working (fryed the mobo a few days ago :( lol) also the size thing is just becasue my friend (gameguyjim) made a few pages and he liked it better, will change anyway mahahahahahaaaaa thanks again computer_tom
