yeah you should probably use a different colour then the blue..
but other than that it looks good.

i've made a couple layouts in the past, but im not very talented and i know they can be really hard to make. however, i learned a lot about layouts and what makes them good. first of all that default blue does not appear well on monitors and isnt very pleasing to the eyes. you want something thats soft and is easy on the eyes. what really puts a website together and attractive is a theme. without a theme to your layout its like you just kinda cluttered different sections of your website and tossed them where ever. its gotta be clean and images that make up your layout look very nice. my suggestion would be learn some stuff with photoshop like making cool borders, work with colors and use dreamweaver to piece everything together. dreamweaver will help you find mistakes that would cause errors in any browser. if there are no errors detected its most likely it'll work in every browser. like anything thats hard it just takes some practice and actual studying that will help you make better layouts. and just a little suggestion, learning php wouldnt hurt a bit either.

It's not that blue is bad, it's that BRIGHT blue is bad.

although it seems to be a little too big for 1024x768 (there shouldnt ever be a horizontal scrollbar for 1024, unless its just an image that is deliberately large)
also if you want the naruto characters lined up nicely on the right side of the screen, and onizuka lined up nicely on the bottom left, you should look into CSS [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
edit: oh its for 1152x864?? you know, you'd be lucky to find 5% of the viewers who go to your site to use that resolution [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

for some reason it wouldnt let me edit my last reply so this is what i was going to add.
i just read the shout-box area on your website. there are a couple shout-out boxes that do not need php/mysql, some run on txt databases. there are also a couple website that host free shout boxes, sometimes with a small text link somewhere. some host give you a nice cp to change the colors/font of your box and also has ip bans and word filters too.
thx for all the comments [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
yeah, i realize i'm the only one in the world using 1152x864, but its what fits my monitor perfectly. on my screen everything looks perfect [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] maybe i'll take a ss and say "if it doesn't look like this... u suck." HEHE
i found a couple that hosted shoutboxes, but i dont want any of that extra add/link stuff they have. i'll be sure to look for the text based ones!
and am i the only one who can not edit my profile? an avatar and proper sig would be nice [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
thats another thing i forgot to tell you, html is no longer allowed, only bbcode. [*img][*/img], [*L=Name of Link]http://www.yourwebsite.com[*/L], etc. of course without the *
i noticed. i tried to make an image a link, wich i think isn't allowed.
edit: i cant seem to find any text based shoutboxes [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
