I like the top graphic a lot! and the buttons!

[buntine]

nice

i like your graphics alot. good job.

- there is some horizontal scrolling when i tested it in 800x600.
- the black bg seemed to distract me a tad when i was browsing your site. Mayby i just need some sleep...
- the background on the side menu looks good!
- the grey text in the main area is also a little bit hard to read. i think you should test it a little bit darker. try #333333

overall awesome job!!

On a gamers site dark background is suited though...well i think so

I like the overall look of the site, the graphics are nice. The banner at the top is a little tall, it takes up almost half the page on an 800x600 resolution.

The navigation is really cool, but it's not totally intuitive. It doesn't do anything on mouseover, and you need to click just to open it so you can click on something else. I'd like to see the nav expand on mouseover, so you only have to click once to get to a new page. Also, I'm not a fan of custom cursors, they can confuse visitors sometimes.

Nice site overall, that's just my 2 cents.

Very nice design, I would prefer some blinking light in the box on the buttons would be cool, something around that area would be nice. And at first i was confused, I thought the links were not working at first because the hand never came up. That was a bit confusing. Other than that, really nice design, the banner is a bit tall, maybe shrink it an inch or so.

Also, on the left navigation where it says Forums, it has an arrow as if it going to have a drop down menu such as the other links do, I suggest getting rid of that.

Nice though.

Looks very nice to me. Good work.

I like the blue cursor, how did you do that? You should maybe set the page margins to a smaller size as there's quite a large gap between the top of the page and the header image.

Very nice.
