I have just finished my site.
Having used free software for many years it can be sometimes hard to find the best downloads.
There are many good download sites, but their databases are huge and you then have to sift through countless description and reviews to find what you want. so I have compiled a list of a maximum of 15 downloads per category, all top pieces of software in their own right and awarded a 5 plucky ducks award for the top download.


Please check it out and any comments good or bad are apprieciated.

the font size could be a little larger, when i adjusted it in my browser, the menu at the bottom of the page overlaps. You can set the fonts to percentages

Thanks aeon, Had some more comments about the text size on another forum, have now started to increase the font size, might take a little while though my 2 year old daughter keeps climbing up onto my lap to play with the keyboard (if daddy can tap it, so can I).

Nice site! I noticed that your "logo" images don't look "clean". can it be because they are GIF's? I am not that advanced yet, but I am sure experts here can help :)

The site looks nice. I find the background a bit distracting though. I would have done the Welcome "W" as either a graphic or not as big. If you use a graphic you can align the top of the letter with the top of the body text, as it would look in printed typography.

nice site but i would suggest a plain background .. and the bar at the south of the page would look much better if it was blue too .. otherwise the contents are good

Very nice site! I like how its clean, and easy to navigate.

Like everybody else said, the text in the home page could be a little larger :) .

I looked at it again and noticed that some of the navigational links at the bottom of the page don't work.

--If you go to About, home doesn't work.
--If you go to Contacts (btw, shouldn't that be"contact"?) Help and FAQ link to contact, vs. your main url like in home.

There might be others, but those are the ones I noticed.
