Hi everyone,

Since Podnet supplies IRC services to codecall, and I'm not that great of a designer, I thought that I would ask for a review of the site.

I have fixed thousands of bugs with the site since I began the project back in April, however there is always room for improvement.

I would appreciate comments/criticism of new features / existing features that should be changed to make the site more user and search engine friendly.

Thanks,
Phil

I like the design. Nice color scheme, easy to navigate. Good work!

For the tutorials, I would get rid of the ok button, and when an item in the menu is clicked, send them to the location.

Perhaps the navigation link items could change colour slightly, or become underlined, when you hover the mouse over them? I kind of expect it to happen, if just to show me which one I'm about to click on.

The bottom bar isn't going to be hard to implement, the top bars I am going to have to look at more closely since they are images. Give me a few days :)

I have fixed the go button for the connection client and I have also changed the text color for each of the bottom page links.

I however am unable to create an image border in css without messing up the entire page. I will fix it someday when I can figure out how to get the borders not to affect the rest of the site.

How about making the boxes slightly smaller, then adding the borders?

Thats what I plan on doing, the problem is I need to get time to install photoshop on my computer to resize the images. Give me a week or two and I will get it done :)

My main workday for podnet and sites like it is Friday and Saturday. The rest of my week is dedicated 100% to school work and on my breaks I surf forums such as CC.

As for this problem, I really do need to install Photoshop, then ask a friend of mine to help me resize the images, I completely suck at photoshop, although I'm learning.
