Well after my site is back on i uploaded a new design.
totaly different, i think better.
It's a dutch site so if you can't read dutch please just take a look at the layout.

to look clilck here
Have fun.

looks oke,
but wrong part of the forum to put it in,

Well, it isn't bad, but you need a lot more work. First of all, try to avoid frames. They don't bring anything good, they just deform your page. Frames were popular when there wasn't PHP, ASP. Now you can get the same effect with INCLUDE function. Then, Times new Roman font is so out of date. Try to use Trebuchet MS and my favourite Verdana. Also, you should put some more effective colors and a graphic header.

Cheers.

P.S. I used Firefox, if that makes any differences.

It will not be positive (again ) but true (again ).
So let's go:

1. Gray vs. yellow (is it yellow? some kind of pastel).
You can't make such a drastic change in colours! I mean the sides (the revesed U) are dark gray, and the middle is pastel?? Don't mix it so much! Even dark gray and white would be better!

2. The 'hover' of links in the left menu.
Here... here you crossed the line! One thing is that the links are black, and the background is dark gray. It must change!! But another thing is that you change the link on hover into red!! You can chardly see anything there! I mean the colors just mix together, and you can't read anything red writen on mixed gray... Change it let's say to light gray (the text), and then on hover make it white! I don't know if it will work with the bacground, but if not, darken the bacground picture!

3. Transparent pictures.
When they are well used, i'm totally for them! But when they are not, they just use very, very lousy! Whay i mean? The google sign on the top... The dinosaur on the left (i mean very colorfull thing on mixed gray...)... The 'Tirol' sign with white borders... Man! These gotta go! Either put them into frames, or consider changing the bacground for them, and use the background as the filler of transparency!

I know, i know - again i wrote only negative things... I can say that i like the new design better if that satisfies you But these things i wrote, have to go!
Pity that i don't have time to make my own version of your layout, cause i would. I'm not saying i'm great at it, but showing you what i mean would be better than just describing it.

With any comments PM me.
Hey.

Dude! The site seriously needs to be reworked from scratch. The frames are a bad idea.. The color scheme that you've chosen is totally wrong. The google link image is tacky and sticks out liek a sore thumb. Now I know I'm being very uncharitable... but I'm fairly certain the site could look much better if you stuck to a frameless structure and a decent color scheme.

Another suggestion would be to do away with the hover. You might as well use a javascript/dhtml menu. It looks way better.

I agree with michaleq.. there's a place for transparent images.. and your site isnt it.

Ok changed the menu and the background of the center frame(for starters)
The menu font color is now light grey the center frame is the same color.
On mouseover or hover the font color changes to white(you were right it's less painfull to the eyes).
About the frames not very handy at that yet people also told me to make use of tables instead of php.
Sinds i'm not into php yet i'll give that a try.
About the giffle(google and tirol) searching for a nice alternative.
Thank for the help and let me know what you think of the grey will ya?

I would rework it so that all the affiliates and links are in one spot, the banners really take away from the page, I would move the google search to somwhere else, possibly to the right side, Possibly add a footer to it so you can put copywrite info, banners, and disclaimers on it.

If you want an example check out my page at [Link]

Nice background with the metal effect. Everything needs to be organised better though, and don't have too many affiliate/flashing button things, as it will detract from your main content. Get some sort of border for your different page areas, define it a bit more. And a nice banner would certainly do you no harm.

Well people it seems to me your all trying to make it your site a little to much.
Some advice here and there is ok but don't push it to the limit.
After taking a good look i changed the color of the mouseover of the menu, I liked the red i had but the advice to change the color was a good one.
And nexdesigns on the right bottum of the page there already is a copyright and a disclaimer.
After taking another good look i agree that the google search has to move to another place.
The changes i will make when i have the time untill then you all have to do with it as it is right now.
