Heh. The link you provided goes to one of those generic domain squatter pages. =] The one in your sig works fine, though.

Whoa. Red. Very, very red. The layout looks okay, but honestly, I couldn't click past the first page; it blinded me. Owie.

Good luck with your site. I'd be happy to have a better look at it if you ever decide to tone down the colour palette a little bit. =]

Themes: Games site

Design: flashy, colorful, eyecatchy, with plenty of graphic and images.

Target Audience: gamer, corporate staft, student, etc

Hits: 40 - 70 unique visitor perday.

That's the initialy why the background would be red. The previous design is even more red. Maybe i should try darker red but i don't want it to be crimson color. Seems like a color of blood to me. :shock:

It should be runable and compatible with IE, firefox, Opera and had been tested. Previously it got images loading problem on IE browser but had been fix. Anyway, let me know and problem encounter.

Any suggestion and comment are welcome. :lol:

I think the problem with the background is the users monitor (brightness etc.) Mine is set to SRGB.

But I like your site.
Just too bad it's mostly games from freegamesforyourwebsite, miniclip etc. :/

Actually, the colour of that site forced me to fiddle with the monitor in an effort to get to where I wasn't blinded. I generally keep my brightness very low, so fiddling with it actually made things worse. =] There's nothing wrong with being colourful and having lots of imagery, I just find your site overwhelming in terms of a solid, bright block of colour, tempered only by small graphics and text. I am a gamer, and in order for me to spend any length of time staring at a site, it would have to be easier on the eyes. But hey, to each his/her own. =]

your site has a very good header
i like the way you arranged the page

Great site.

Its good there are photos of each game so a user can see if its good before downloading it

I think you should change the background color because it's a little hard on my eyes.
