I am editing this post now that I know your not trying to become a main reference site. The green is untouched text and the orange is new text:


NOt sure if your asking for advice on the site's structure but here is some:

(1)colors arent easy on the eye if your going for a professional look or just want people to think you know your paint shop stuff make the home page look more like your forum page.

(2) 60% of your main nav button links open in a new window (not good). Of course, what I meant by this was NOT to have it open in the same page and thats it. What i meant by this is that if its a main link the page it goes to should at least resemble the home page, like have the same title or something, therefore causing it to be fine to not open in a new window, and it would still be your site. What I'm trying to say is: You never make the MAIN nav links on a site go to a different site, and if you NEED one to always make it the last link in the row/column.

(3) only 1 page looks like the home page (again, the main nav button pages). This causes viewers to feel cluttered and making them look alike will cause you to just have that "together" look so ppl know you know ur stuff

(4) your gallery page doesn't work

(5) your screenshots need to be better res. Try making them lower size but with a good amount of quallity.

(6) a number of links dont work

(7) what does weather have to do with your site? (intellicast) Heres the trying to be like a main reference site thing, now that I know you are just a group of people helping eachother out I guess weather isn't as terrible..

(8) Haha, aight, I was being a little rough on you here cause lets just say you definitely needed it to become one of those great reference sites. Again, now that I understand what your site is more, I have to say some stuff is cool for a group, and considering your taste your "group" is prob the same way..


(9) get rid of the kids corner. Main reference thing again

(10) make your own search instead of having a google one (or in addition to the google one)


Well, just giving you some tips, sorry if I offend you in any way. Let me know if you need help or advice with anything, good luck with the site

as i said, sorry if it offended you.

I thought u were trying to become one of those places where everyone goes for help with PSP, like a reference site, as PHP is to http://www.php.net/, skins are to wincustomize, etc. But ur just a group of "friends?"..so sorry, thought u were goin for moree..(hence the weather thing)..

I misread ur post and thought you were asking for things that could be fixed, I could think of many things great about the site, like how the title wiggles when you go over a button haha..

If ur just a group of ppl helping eachother out the colors are fine if there ok with you! Just if u want to get the advanced ppl to stay that was my advice

good luck, dont know if i scared u away but if u need help with anything let me know
