Need Some Comments

[Bruce]

Well I'd like some feedback on my site. Yes, I know it's just another Nuke site... with content though (actually I've been slacking lately, heh).

I've changed my forums around since last time too, so give me some feedback on that as well. Is the layout ok?

Hell it is a lot better than all other nuke sites... better layout... more professional... better colors... than the standard nuke site layout I have seen. Nice use of soft and light blues.

10 out of 10... nothing I can say about improvements... all in all it is very good.

I like it, you have alot more content than just about any other nuke site there is out there. Good work Phrozen, I especially like the little news icons you've got there.

Comments:

- This is an amazing site. The colors are customized carefully and the images are used appropriately. The layout is organized and it's very flashy and fast-loading. It appears perfect to the user who takes a quick glance at it. In fact, I would give it a 100% if I didn't scrutinize carefully. I hope I can further help improve your site. :)

- Get rid of "URL Redirection", "DHTML", "Javascript", "Free Topsites List", and the entire programming section. If you don't have it, don't include it. No use in making yourself look bad. Same goes with the language interface. If you really only have one, then there's no point in keeping that section there.

- Members list. Eeek! The link colors to each alphabet letter are near impossible to see! Same with the link for the "latest registered user". It took me a while to find it because a) it is so far apart from the bold text and b) the link color is TOO light.

- Quite a lack of information! FAQ is empty, and there are only 22 downloads. Not a single review, and very few articles. This is the biggest problem that I could find with this webpage.

- Articles are scrunched up together when I use your "topics" directory feature. Also, you should really consider using images or at least BIGGER text at the top of each section. Right now, your title text is just as big as your regular font, and that's not good.

Overall: 90%

Congratulations on being the first "A" user (at least from my new stricter style of rating) at FreeWebspace.net! The record is 93%.

i like your site. but the "Affiliates & Links" table is stretched out under IE6.

I like it, I just think taking you to the future...one step at a time is a little cheesy...but that's my only beef. Not everyday you see someone make a nuke site look good.

Same goes with the language interface. If you really only have one, then there's no point in keeping that section there. That's really out of my control. I guess it's a bug in PostNuke. I've tried removing it, but no such luck.

It took me a while to find it because a) it is so far apart from the bold text and b) the link color is TOO light. Well it just used the standard link color from the style sheet so I never even bothered to look. I fixed that now.


FAQ is empty Yes it is. I have nothing to put there yet.


and there are only 22 downloads. Closer to 200 actually, but linking all the fonts seperately would be monotonous. I have enough linking to do with all the other files I've already uploaded.


Not a single reviewNot a section I'm planning on having. Call it a bug in PostNuke or something bu tI don'thave the option to remove it.


Articles are scrunched up together when I use your "topics" directory feature. You mean this page? http://thaportal.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Topics&file=index It seems okay to me.


Also, you should really consider using images or at least BIGGER text at the top of each section. Right now, your title text is just as big as your regular font, and that's not good.OK, good point.

Thansk for all the comments and suggestions guys. Any more are welcome.

Hey, thats a sweet site! But I have a newbie question, this is going to be funny to you but...

Whats a "Nuke" site?

[xsnetwork]

I like the site :)... I just don't think the header graphic fits in with the rest of the designmuch, but other than that, great job :)

Umm, this is going to sound even more stupider, but, lol what is PHP Nuke and stuff? :confused2

Newbie :D

[Bruce]

It's just a CMS (before you ask, Content Management System).
