Wow, I'm glad I decided to register at every good forum I could find. I've met some webmasters from high places. I liked the previous design better. Holy crap, you use way too much flash way too needlessly. Your logo could be more squared IMHO. That would make it faster-loading, and would make it easy for transparency. [img]http://www.clickjoke.com/1up/mylogo2.gif[/img] as opposed to [img]http://www.clickjoke.com/1up/theirlogo2.gif[/img] (if you would like me to remove these images, feel free to PM me) I really don't like the boxes in the background. I'd personally prefer it if the center area was just pure white (or another color) bg, with the left and right edges being diagonally lined with grey vs darker grey. For the big flash thing right below the logo and navigation, with blocks displaying--I think the latest added content, I think that should be a static image. If you must have rotation, use a script with the ability to have a static image. People don't really like flash in layouts very much, and either do search engines. It doesn't even work at all without Flash. Oh boy do I hate the squares used as headers for each small thing like whats up, release dates, featured blog... I hate menus that expand like the buzzometer, and that bar below it showing 2 videos, top ten, and hands on. And how it expands when you mouseover the genres or platforms. Quite frankly, the design doesn't seem suiting of a video game website. And it's really hard to navigate. It's overuse of flash makes it bloated and slow, and also hinders the navigation. I don't mind the ads, as long as they're well organized. I don't understand why those peoples faces who link to a page that doesn't work could be my friends or something... oh wait, none of your pages but the homepage do. Oh wait, it's just slow as hell. Your title tags could be better used. Animated stuff is out, people don't like it, visibility accessibility and just plain good content is what the visitors will come for. Replace the links in your flash with text (possbily CSS styled) and image (you can use CSS to show an image to your visitors with 0px font, while Google unable to see CSS gets the text) links. The site needs some information archetecture improvement. It seems about as organized as this post ;) You should go the way that Wired.com went and make it tableless. I think that Gamespot and IGN are virtually tableless. [img]http://www.clickjoke.com/toast.gif[/img] The other other other other other white meat.
