Hi there

I've started a new site and was hoping for some feedback on the general design and layout of the template. The site is for a go-karting company and I would greatly appreciate any advice on my work done thus far.
So cruise on over to www.spliffsa.com

The images are still at best quality i havent splt them up much so the site might take awhile to load. The top banner was originally made by a friend i just add some small stuff, all the other images I made myself in fireworks.
This is just the template, i'm using cutenews to control the content so I made the content tables in the way the script would repeat entries. Theres still a lot to do and add to this template before i'm satisfied i just would love some opinions on it so far.
Like you think I should brighten the maroon so you can see the detail more clearly?
Thanx a lot in advance

Your site seems to be down at the moment!

donno...its seems to be working fine...try again

I did a ping to your domain and got a 100% loss. Maybe this is because I am in Greece at the moment.

I don't quite know what the problem is. You are saying becuase you are in greece you are not allowed to view that domain?
I use a linux servers in London you the first person who's had issues viewing content on the server or maybe its the actual domain?
Damn i would upload it to a different domain but i cannot find my ftp details..

There must be a problem somewhere between your server and my ISP. That is what I meant. If you can access it, it should be ok. If more people can't see it, then you have a problem with your host.

What about other people in GIDforums?

okay here try this domain...same servers
www.afrobeat.co.za

www.afrobeat.co.za

I still can't see your site. Changing the domain would do no good in this case. Changing server/IP address would.

Why noone else is posting whether they can see this site or not?

okay hold up hold up...

here we go try this one..
different ip...microsoft servers in South Africa
this address won't be valid for long as i'm currently moving this account to a better linux platform.
www.sportstar.co.za

edit: no-one replies cos theres not much activity on this site...if there was more ppl posting this site would be the best!
