LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksThe website on stand here is something I am and have been working on for a little bit on my free time. I had posted some stuff previously and received great feedback from everyone, thank you. Back on topic, I have been trying to come up with ideas for a website, something to do with design, dynamic content, user-friendly, and overall about gaming!
What I want to build is a dynamic site which features guild/clan website themes for users to use for themselves. It will not be a hosting site but everything to install on a host and just edit and go. Development for multiple games, modules (scripts) to install features on different pages such as progression rankings, server rankings, statistics for the clan or guild. Forums for support, game discussion, custom themes, custom modules, or anything design/development or game related. Somewhat of a online gaming community.
Anyway enough chatter, here is my first draft of the homepage links are not active and I am working on scripts and databases at the moment. I am new to PHP so I am learning as much as I can and I know this will not be an easy task. Any comments feedback of overall structure/design so far would be nice. If anyone like to help me along the path to learning to PHP/MySQL along the way I would appreciate any help that could get me rolling faster!

Weird oh well, it should pop up soon. Maybe I will have some of the PHP done. I'm very new to the scripting so this is rough.

Nice looking site. Images and colours all fit together nicely.
I'm not sure if its just me, but the background image loaded fairly slowly for me. It could be just my internet but if the image is a large filesize, it should be optimized so the page loads quickly for users.

Major update: Implementing PHP Login system/Activation system. I still have to adjust the email to send out the activation key correctly to test. I am new to PHP as of this week, so any help, comment or anything would be greatly appreciated. Will edit with an update soon.
Edit: I think email is working correctly, any feedback on anything greatly appreciated. I tried to implement some security but Im new to this so who am I kidding.

Definitely like the general color strategy. Having a dark background and then images that go from the dark to some nice glowing colors works time and time again. I'm not sure how I like the dotted lines as boundaries, I'm thinking solid wider lines that don't pop out as much ( i.e. darker color ) might be better

maybe add some color to the text too ( headers and main text slightly different ).
You could use more green and red or add something like some subtle blue
