Uuh... nice panda?

Firstly, the site doesn't seem to have a Warcraft look, so you don't really know what it's about unless you read the title, which is hard to spot instantly since it's got the same colour as the background.

Secondly, the ads too many, making it hard to navigate, which leads us to...

Thirdly, The Index and the content text on the site is just a plain boring font on a plain boring (gray!) background.

So, mainly: Remove or cut down on the ads (I know this might be hard, but maybe consider to switch host), and make the site good looking.


Sorry if you're getting sad of the not-so-constructive critisicm, but I am quite pissed at the momet, so please excuse me.

I think the menu to the left is a bit boring, try making some buttons instead of just plain text.

Hi YinYang

It's not bad for a first site :) We've all seen worse.

According to the source code, you have sliced a .png in Image Ready. Imagine someone using a dialup connection, waiting for all those images to load, you would lose visitors.
What you need is to study the code and replace the plain gray or green images with background color. Or even better start the coding on your own and use Image Ready just for the graphics.
Furthermore you need font styles and padding, so that the text doesn't touch the borders..

Hmm I don't know about Warcraft. Image-Googling shows that the game is darker and scarier :D I think you have to stick to that theme.
And if you need google ads, try to keep them all together on one side (if it's possible).

Keep it up :)

edit: I use 1280x768 and it looked kinda weird, changed it to 800x600 and a horizontal scrollbar appeared. Your page has the right width to be viewed in 800x600 but it has to be centered :) Even 1024x768 has a scrollbar..
bahbye devppl :]
