Good job shashank_hi, but there are a few things.

1) I'm viewing at 800x600 and get a horizontal scroll bar.

2) The colors don't "jive" on the main page. You've got two shades of blue and then that orange just shatters the look.

3) You may need to rework your logo on the right side of the main page. The quality seems way low.

Keep up the work!

Site loads extremely fast, thats a plus.

Move the logo to the left of your site title and do not make a slot for advertising on the right.
If you do choose advertising, I think a 468x60 banner would look much better in the content area.

Revising the logo to something more crisp and clean like kidsleep says.
If you change the orange to a dark blue (night blue) and then make your navigation blue the same color as your header blue, im sure it will look much better.

Much potential for designing this site, keep at it, and it can only improve!

yes the site loads very quickly - but it is also quite bland - the colour of the site do not set it off and also dont go that well together.

1) the logo needs a rethink and redesign and you need to move it to the left in place of "thejavahub.com"

2) you're buttons should be created into rollovers to give your viewers a greater knowledge that they are active links on the top and left.

3) you need to reorganise your tables so that they work with all screen resolutions.

4) You need to add your meta-tags into to your "header" section of your code.

As Jason mentioned this site has potential - but there's still work to be done to achieve it! I hope these critiques help you to improve what you are doing! Good Luck!

You need some grapgics too. Not too much, but a bit here, a bit there

Check the colours now, it seems more agreeable now i hope. About the logo, i'm working on it and will have a new Orange coloured one soon and it will be diffrent from the one i'm already having. This is one of the reasons why i have orange coloured boxes. I hope you find a synchronization between the two colours, orange and blue (or turquoise).

Thanks all once again.

The colors arent bad but there is no effects on any of the links...kind of a dissapointment on a "Java" app site....some simple css effects would be nice..... just my opnion...overall it looks good
