I like it!
The only thing that is wrong for me is the fact that on all your pages the logo is on the left but on the index page it is on the right.

Maybe you should keep it on the right throughout the website.

The site looks good, but it loads very slow and that's because you don't know how to compress your images.

Good but same problem as stated with Ironhacker.

Nice overrall though

The site took over 5 seconds to load on my 512K broadband, and for a site that isn't notably flash based, this is bad news. As ironhacker says, you need to find a compresion compromise between file-size / load time and image quality. For example your 'layout_01.gif' image was 27.5 KB, but when changed to a JPEG with 90% quality was just 13KB. Getting the right file size for your images is vital when creating a website.

I'd like to see some neat rollover effects on your navigation, as at the moment is is rather basic and bland, and it is hard to tell which link you are on as there are no ALT tags on any of your images, not a wise usability issue. Your text links should also change colour upon rollover to confirm to the user that they are in fact links.

I have one problem, why is the home page completely different to the other pages, in style, design and alignment on the screen?

With regards to validation, your site isn't even valid HTML, with 118 errors, some problems on your site could be fixed by changing these!

4/5 for design, but 2.5/5 overall, considering load times and validation, as well as usability.

I like the site its very bright and captured my attention enough to look past the index page.

A few comments :

The contact pgae - what's with the "ii" characters that appear all over the page ?

Also on the "example" pages there are some page navigation links at the bottom of the page. These are too small and are easily over looked. I would suggest making them more obvious and perhaps have them at the top of the page as well.

The text on the pricing page needs rewording , it does not read well. (I guess english is not your first language).

As I said before - I like the site :-)

hi DesignBox,

thank you for you like it and give me a suggestion... I wish I could keep the logo on the left side on index too, but it would be kinda of crowd, so I had to give it up.

hi ironhacker, thank you very much for your comments, yes, some of people mentioned same problem on my site as well, I will see what I can do on that point... might take quite a few days to fix that problem, thanks

hi tekp, thank you very much for your comments too

ps: I went to your site, and found there is a bug
'?a hre="http: //www. oktagone.net/hosting.php">' text shows on the first page, think might you want to know

hi justlivyalife, thank you for your suggestion... yes, the layout images are huge, didn't notice they were that big before :hurt: , thank you for telling me. I will see what I can do to reduce those files size and still maintain the similar quality.

yes, you are right...the navigation is very plain, I don't like it either... was hurrying to get the site function. I will change them. thanks.


the homepage is different design to the following pages, as you can see, the actual page is about to fit a 14, or 15 inches screen, that means, if I use the 'home' page layout on the following pages, the pages would be much wider or I had to post much small size sample pictures to avoid some of browsers fluquently roll pages from left to right... up and down. any suggestion on this point?

I have went through all the pages again in the last a few hours to correct the html code... some pages appears 'ii' which I didn't see them on my computer, thank you very much for your test and help
