Hi Ben

I checked out your site and have a few comments.

First, the main page...

1. There is horizontal scrolling, due to the rather large logo. It should
not be bigger than 600 pixels width if you care about 640x480 surfers.

2. The main font (sans-serif) is well chosen.

3. There are plenty of grammatical errors, thoughout your site. Another
critiquer mentioned most of them.

4. These two links are broken: doctor html and antiques and weapons.

5. I like the dragon theme, different from the basic corporate style.

6. The top logo text needs anti-aliasing.

7. It wasn't clear whether this was a webdesign company or personal site. I
would separate the two - as for that insurance co. or multinational corp.
probably isn't interested in cockatiels or anitques and weapons when they
are looking for a webdesigner.

8. I like the side bar, but I would remove the gamezone link - they get
enough visitors and don't need more.

9. Same goes for Search engines, cnet and other logos and links.

10. The ICQ panel and panel below on a separate contact page. It lengthens
the vert scrolling and is more a mark of a personal site than business site.

Now for the other pages (I didn't read your message properly, so checked out
most of your site. Rather than delete the comments, I might as well give
them :-)...

11. Most sub pages had the default font, and I would change that to the
sans-serif like your first page.

12. Most sub pages lacked the sidebar of the first page, likewise the
background and heading font.

HTH

Cheers
