Might wanna rethink your title banner there as it's 80% impossible to read. Maybe make the letters white and sparkling like the stars there. Just an idea. The rest of the site looks nice. Maybe get some kind of subtle background instead of just a solid color. Anyways, nice site.

Nice setting. I like it. And the midi playing in the background... reminds me I need to revisit Tom's site again.

And you should correct those spelling mistakes. No offence but your writings look pretty horrible, and people might take your site more seriously if youd use punctuation, capital letters where they are meant to be used and correct spelling..

Peace.

Heres a hint:

Thank you Bill Gates for Microsoft word with a built in spell check!

Yes, spell check is nice but it doesn't correct grammar well. As in cases of "your" and "you're" and "to","too,","two" etc. Visual vigilance is always your best bet.

The thing I hate most are those annoying adverts on fan site. If you are serious about this fan site, buy some space and a proper domain name. It wont cost much at all if you shop right. ;)

Good luck with that. It's not nearly as easy as you might think.

aren't I kinda in charge of that? I'm the GM at that site and not exactly sure what im supposed to be doing. Sorry I haven't been keeping in contact my MSN has decided to crap out on me. I have no other way to contact you really. I will work on that site later however at the moment I'm doing exams and work so it'll be atleast a week before I can even check the site. I checked it on a school computer but couldn't tell you that the font looked ridiculously tiny on that computer. I'm not sure why but it looks fine on my home comp. One last thing, have you added IV and V yet? Cause your grammar is lacking and I was thinking i could write V. Just a thought PM me

Ummm, Rog...I think posts like these make the people who defended you last week a teensy bit nervous. (not to mention embarrassed)

You can make the header banner a bit easier to read by adding a light-coloured outline to the text. I think that'd make a big difference.

The Hero, I really, really think you have to take spelling lessons. No offense but "Genal Forum?" Do you actually take the time to read what you've written to think, something isn't right here.

A best way to see if you've spelt something right is to open up Google in another browser, then type the word into Google and you should get something back such as "Did you mean General?" Copy the correct word, it's what I do when I'm not sure I've typed something correctly.

Also, I'm sorry if I'm wrong but it is better if you typed your own content about the QFG games. Forgive me but I really doubt that was you as all the words are spelt correctly and it's written coherently aswell. I faced this problem with Tierra Game Central (RIP) as most of the content I had used was just copied from the AGDI site.

This site still needs alot of work, but as you improve it, it will build up to a pretty nice site.

That, and you can use Microsoft Word. They have a mighty fine spell-checker.

Finally, you can also simply ask around. If you ask people to proof-read your site and send them the link in private, it'll look much better by the time it reaches the public.

VampD3 · #20 Post by **VampD3** » Sat Jan 29, 2005 1:36 pm

The sites quite good but I think you need to jazz it up a bit, its very plain. Add some different colours and pictures to it and make it interesting. Also use good punctuation and it automatically makes your site look better.

But its coming along nice. You just need to add a bit more. If you want some help just email me, my email address is in my profile or on my website.

Goodluck!!!

i was kinda hoping he'd wait before posting it here as I didn't think it was quite ready but again MSN has locked me out. when my comp get's revamped it should work. I'm suprised I can type this post right now without setting my house on fire (it happened once before on this comp)
