5.

Get some content going. :) The design doesn't look too bad, but I'd do something about that header.

I'm wondering, do you do your own gfx? It looks a bit like a template. I would suggest doing your own gfx, it'll help.

3. Too much poor negative space, tacky buttons, no real color theme (no, white in this case does not count), and poorly placed ... everything. I gave you three because it was a nice attempt at least but you need to work on more styles of design if you want an effective website.

But then again, that is just my opinion ;)

well, i aint gonna criticise cos we all started somewhere (cringes at first ever designs)

firstly,

starting a website nowadays is DAMN hard work, if you've made the site for your friends and family to use a source of reference then keep going with your content, if you want people to visit your website AND come back, nowadays you either have to a kick ass product/deal unavailable elsewhere or create a mini community site..........otherwise, you'll spend all your time spamming boardsw and getting people annoyed when they visit your site and leave...

secondly,

if your new to webdesign, consider looking a template which incorporates CSS, perhaps if this is new to you, learn how i did back in the days.....download a free template and pull it apart/play with it to see what makes CSS tick.

apart from that, i have to say i dont hate your website or love it really, most people have a directory of basic links with all there most important links anyway (yeh, i mean your favourites)

i didnt mean to be negative, just trying to help... :yes:

I think visually, it isn't good. I guess my standards are just a tad high from seeing other people's work in a graphic design community or I just don't have the same taste as others, yet again, due to being part of a different design community than the one at Neowin.net. I don't know what stage you are at in this type of work, it could be one of your firsts which would be nice but overall, it isn't good. Too much white, you need to add more colours in my opinion. The images don't seem pleasent either and the table is definately too wide for your needs. I suggest notching that down as well as centre it afterwards.

Content wise - nothing is particularly new from what I see. Just programs that you recommend which can be found in other parts of the internet. I don't know what you are aiming at but I believe recommending these type of technology with your website having personal (I assume) photographs and music seem to be a mix in the bag that may not stand out too well.

I don't really recommend having your website posted here (Poll Station) with just a rating. Ratings don't help at all, they would only give you a general idea of how good it is but it doesn't help you to improve your website if the ratings are generally low or average.

hey my site has been finally updated since march 2005 :s what do you guys think?

My Opinions

. I don't like that there are two splash/nag screens before you reach the photo album.

. Page transistions are annyoing.

. "Horizontal" and "Vertical" are not very descriptive categories.

. Side bar links to empty pages (ex: page 5)

. Overall style of photo album looks good.

. "More than just photos." - No, not really.

Why do you have ads on a personal site?

Why the two click through screens?

Not really all that impressive, not trying to be a jerk but in Safari when I click on a picture to enlarge I get nothing but a 1 inch by 1 inch unscalable box that I assume has the enlarged photo in it...sorry. :huh:
