Hello,

I changed my site which I had reviewed couple of months ago. I changed a bunch of stuff around. The player search box is not yet functional so I know that. If you could give some comments and suggestions that would be great. Thank you.

http://www.sportznow.com

also looking for link exchange partners if anyone is interested.

Ok, just a couple of things:

1. Why the BLUE colour in the header? I don't know where it comes from. I guess it doesn't match with the rest of the site.

2. In the MENU title, the right end of the box is not 45 degrees like the one staring in the header's menu. I would spect these two lines having the same position.

3. I find the font of the left menu being too small to read in 1024x768.

The site is clean and ordered. The information distribution is just fine.

I think the blue colour is fine, since it matches the black and the colour of the command buttons.

I am not sure about the background colour. i think it makes the web look kind of empty.

the teams page looks really empty, prehaps you could jaz it up a bit

your statistics page is down

size of the scores frame could be fixed to look better

no links back to main page from forum

headlines and articles look boring


overal the conenet is good, but try to jazz up the other pages to look like the first one

on the blue topic, prehaps a lighter blue?

I really like the menu, its a great effect!

On the top of each table is ("links!, "news" etc) quite bad. I'm talking about the curved line in yellow being a bit rough! Try and smooth it out...

I dont really like the adverts at the top of the page.

I would change some of the colors. I dont like the yellow and the light blue. But then again, each to there own i guess...

I like the forum, there are some dull ones around. Yours is nice!

Over all, your site gets a 7/10 Congrats!

Very professional looking. Easy to use. Your header (sportznow.com) is sort of tough to read, it could use a bit more clarity. Work on getting all of your features up and running (Statistics wasn't working) and try to grab some more traffic for your forum. Otherwise, very nice site. Keep up the good work.

I also think the logo isn't clear enough, hard to know the name of the site.

Otherwise very good again apart from the banner advert at the top of the page, very off putting and may drive some people away.

Good job so far

Great site.

Nice layout, i would suggest making your buttons on the left more sharp or making them stand out more.
Other than that nice layout.
Good luck.

Nice layout very clean. My only point is when you click the top links (about me, forum, etc.) the top banner is smaller than the homepage, not sure why that is but if you want to keep the site uniform you may want to change it to match the hompage size. OTher than that good proffesional work
