i cant sleep so im playing with my web authoring tools. new content here and there and a few updates.

what are your views on nova-land.com any at all?

the site as a whole, content, layout, anything like that.

do you think the colour cheme is a bit :? ?

obviously dont get slaggin us, any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism or comments welcome..........

do people use it at all?

the hit counter and ACTUAL stats - not repeated ones, show a mixture of one time users and return visits............

Rite!

Yes its handy for the guides mike but to be honest that is all I use it for! As for the layout, id say loose all the mouse over effects, looks silly in some places with black boxes and no pics until you move mouse!

Also using the back button can be annoying so think of using frames pages and having a permanent navi-menu in one of the frames!

Hope that helps? Look forward to seeing an update! And always willing to lend my web design hands if needed!

Mike... nova-land is primarily an information site yeah??

if so... check out www.facethemirror.net and compare the design of your site to the design i used for that. YES i know they are completely different subjects but the point is the design...

Your site is quite cluttered and crowded with fancy bits that are not needed... keep it clean, sleek and stylish and it keeps people coming back... AND it loads quicker if you keep iamges to a minimum where possible. ;)

If you wanna have a chat about it on msn sometime gimema shout when i am on mate.

lol sorry Mike but the way i understand it that the site is basically a collection of guides for modifications, i dont use guides so i wouldnt use it. I think is good for the people who need it, but its not for me.

No offence mate.

not necessary mate... flash slows things down.
the point of his site is providing information to people who want it - so last thing it wants is some flash, just for the sake of flash.

:D
'tis all in hand.
