Nice start - But... I'd recommend changing the Times New Roman font to something else!

good for your first website. You might want to change the font color because it is a little hard to read!

A good start.
For someone who knows nothing about the subject I found it interesting and illuminating.

Now to help you improve.

1. Put all your style declarations in a seperate file and link each page to this. Doing it this way you only need to alter one file to change your style site wide.

2. Personally I don't like serif fonts on web pages, I prefer sans serif.

3. You really should try to learn how to layout your pages using CSS instead of tables.Ther are plenty of tutorials available on the web. (If you want to know of some PM me)

4. The font colour you have chosen for the main part of the home page needs to be darker.

5. When declaring font sizes it is better to use relative sizes (ems or %) rather than absolute sizes (px or pts). This way users can change the text size they see to suit themselves.

6. Try to centre the whole page rather than having everything on the left and white space on the right.

The above might seem over critical but it is not meant that way but to help improve what is a very good start.

Site looks pretty good...

One thing that is kindof distracting is having to scroll down below the picture everytime to read your content. When I first clicked a link I thought "this site doesn't have any content... but then I found it.

Good first start.... Congrats!

overall, very nice. the pictures on the donate page are not proportionate. they look streached one way and shrunk the other way. When resizing a picture it should look the same as the original, just smaller. The gold text is not my favorite, but I can read it fine. If this is tryuly your first site....you have done VERY well with it.

A nice start. You need to change the text font color and style. Dont stretch the images of your menu and link button.

First of all the links and menu image are blurry. I think you should change those. The images seems to be aswell, so it doesn't look too proffesional.

The forum looks good.

Everything on the site seems to be on the left side and the right is pretty empty. I think you should try balancing it out a little, so you have use of the whole screen.

What you should always remember when desigining a website is that what you see on your screen is not neccessarily what others see. All users have different computers and you must keep that in mind.

Not a bad start though

Very good start. The header font is hard to read - you can try a different font.
Also the "Menu" and "Link" button are little blurry.

looks good for your first site

I would change the gold color to darker one

search for a gold ring in google pictures - it will get you all shades of gold because of the placement of the lighting

Good first site. Did you code this by hand or use a WYSIWYG editor? I see your trying to do XHTML but on some of the elements there are multiple /'s at the end to close tags instead of only one.

I would also recommend that in the CSS to use a name that is meaningful instead of .style20, etc. In the <li> you specify a class for each one instead of one time for the whole list which would make it easier and more ecomonical.

Interesting site and great 1st site!

From a visual point of view I agree with some of the previous comments about blurry link & menu images. Also, I think it would look smoother visually if the colours were more coordinated with each other(i.e...the grey on the submission boxes is different to the other grey on the home page).
