1. That's a broken link. I assume the correct address is http://uki05.w.interia.pl/esthetic/

2. I *think* this belongs in the site reviews forum. Madscis?

Yes, it does. I can't move it, so I'll go ahead and offer some opinions =)

1) Doctype. Encoding. You need to specify them!

2) CSS. You are using it, but you need to work on using it better. I'm at a loss as to why you have styles declared in your <head>, and yet in all your <p> tags you have -

code:
style="color:#5E2770;font-family:verdana;font-size:10"



Just define that in your style sheet! That's the whole point of a stlye sheet - to get it out of the HTML.
You also need to define a unit of measure for your sizes - "10" should be "10px" for example.

3) Tables. There is no need for tables at all with such a simple layout. I'm not compeltely anti-table, but it just seems silly to me to use them for layout when there's no reason at all to do so. Again - CSS is your friend. Get to know it.

4) Blurry. Why is everything so blurry? It makes it all look like you've messed up. Things would benefit greatly from some nice clean crisp lines and edges.

5) Visual structure. Right now there is a rather confusing jumble of things on the page...there is little or no indication as to why anything is where it is, or how important it might be....it's all just kinda "there".

You need to give the viewer a reason to look around, a reason to move visually from one area to another.

6) Color. The one you've chosen is fine, but it needs more. it needs something to break it up slightly. Subtlety is something I am very fond of, but this oversteps subtle and becomes dull and muddled.

7) Links. All of your links seem to open in a new window. That's a bad idea - I have a window open, and it's a perfectly good one. Use it

Especially when you are going to pop-up a reduced window to display an image! Now I have 3 windows open for the same site, and one of them doesn't even have anything in it!

So basically, it's not all that bad, but it needs to be cleaned up and streamlined a bit. Give it a little more 'oomph'.
