Aren't free websites forbidden???? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

Well, I agree about the music that I cannot seem to shut off.
The header looks like it is part of a template and needs to be customized.....it is full of ??????.
At the very top of the page you have the little circles as links; the white space behind them doesn't go with the site and the text that appears for the links is VERY hard to read.
The site needs a footer so it all ties together. Possibly a border around all of the content as well.
The ad under the header pushes the content down and looks like the site fell apart. I would get rid of the ad all together.
You don't have a welcome message yet, but I am assuming you plan on putting it in the nice big blank box that is right there in the middle up top. ;)
I found a couple of misformatting issues in firefox. Here are screenshots:

It seems to me that you are using frontpage to help out on the coding for your template. I strongly suggest hand-coding because it allows for a much more compatible site over all browsers and it cuts back on wasted code and bandwidth. I mean, this code is a mess and it could be a lot nicer and take up a lot less bandwidth. Right now you have about 64k of code and it could be as little as 15-20k!

Also, I don't think that you are using PHP. You should be using PHP for a site like this to ensure that the site is easily updated and you aren't going to get tired of trying to update it. I can help you out if you don't know to much PHP.

Lastly, there is a ton of advertising on your site. I understand you believe that more exposure means more money, but it won't. The ads will just piss people off to no end. I would stick with 1 ad per page so you don't run of visitors.

:)

yep truce is write it is screwed um in firefox i no alot of people that use different browses so you have to make i so that is supports at least 3 man browsers, Opera, IE and Mozila
i hate to say this but the music i think lags it up alot but it is eyecatchy, adnt he ad at the top is very slow to load (i no i have slow interent but all the other adds on other website to load that slow)
Even though i personal really like the heading witht he buttons on it i think you need to do some work

your links in flash at the top, put an invisible backing for the clickable area, not just the actual letters.

Hey i really thank you for all the errors you all found out ,
specailly the browser part.I am now working on another template that can meet your expectations.And for the music i have placed a small square button besides the flash,i do know you cannot listen to the same music for a long time.For the header yes the header was not my own i happened to ask my friend to do it but he copied it from elsewhere.
well thanks once more.

For the ads i feel they make the site a bit attractive but after what you all have posted i feel it should not be there.

I am very much interested in PHP i do need help and will gratefully accept any suggestions on how to make the update of the site easy.
