Well, considering on how I'm going to be converting my site over soon (thanks to josh and dcpsoguy) it's going to be totally automatic and easier to use...

your opinions welcome, as we'll discuss what needs to be done (this is just a draft, nothing works and most of the stuff on there is just repeated :))

new layout

Not too shabby.
A little crowded on the right but not bad.
Swish is EVIL! Learn flash ;)
And the :. is too trendy for words :)

Resolution: 1024x768
Browser: Opera 5.1 and also IE 5

First Impression: Wow this is CROWDED! The middle is like a blur. Contrary to other posrts, load time was FAST (and I am on dial-up).

Your logo needs some work. I think the "r" on the end should be more visible. I am not a huge fan of the fading.

Left menubar: I suggest you have mouseover underlines on "Free webpages","Music", etc. I would also suggest you get everything lines up properly. I don't like how the headers have a smaller width than the rest of the left menu.

Main area: Crowded. Try and space things out a little more. Maybe just have links to the latest news rather than small snippets of it on the main area.

Right menubar: I still have a beef with the headings being a shorter width than the rest.

Bottom: loose it! all of it! What an eye-soar!

Overall, I think your color scheme is perfect. I have seen your other designs, and this one is 1000% better!

The site certainly has potential, as everyone is always looking for free hosting services.

The best of luck!

It looks good but shouldn't you make the bottom bar of blue in the similar fashion as the top (ie, lighter blue and the tv screen lines)?
Also, something about the color scheme doesnt sit right with me... i think its that the lighter blue seems to randomly pop up once in a while while everything else plays with a shad of grey/white/black/dark navy blue... i dunno tho... but its a great layout

Well, keep in mind all of that crap wont be on there.

Josh just did his best job of interpreting what the site is all about (probably not knowing what it all is about)

:)

Personally I think it's a great job, and upon minor fixing, it'll look pretty damn good...

Thanks josh and dcpsoguy :)

Cool, Looks good, I was wondering when you were going to bring your site back on line. Now load up your downloads page with some piping hot pr0n and warez and you'll be in business LOL

Oh on the left menu you might wanna put a little spacing between the options and the edge of the page.

Paulson, it looks nice :D My only suggestion would be to rotate some DistComp ads along with the "your ad could go here" spots.
