Hey buddy wassup! Well this layout it's cool actually, way better than the other one. I like the big icons and and colors in general. You might wanna do something about the text.. make it bigger perhaps.. or a little more decipherable. That's about it. Good Job. :thumb:

Actually, it looks cool. I like the color scheme. One thing that doesn't fit well, is the pixel font in the menu. It's too small & thin for the huge cells. So, think it over.

I kinda like the pixel font...

but as for menu buttons... I couldnt find a good font for that... and I hate it when text looks blurred and thats y I LOVE pixel fonts. Any suggestions?

I also hate not only blurry texts, but shapes, as well.
Find a bold pixel font. e.g.:

http://www.dafont.com/en/font.php?file=04b_25
http://www.dafont.com/en/font.php?file=4mini
http://www.dafont.com/en/font.php?file=addlgbitmap09
http://www.dafont.com/en/font.php?file=adore64
http://www.dafont.com/en/font.php?file=aqui

and many many others...

Possibly the best pixel fonts rated on dafont on this page:

The site looks too much like a tutorial e.g. the buttons and the font used look like you have followed a tutorial (which is good) but you haven't stamped your own personal touch onto it and I believe thats what lets the layout down.

I didnt follow a tutorial at all... There are somethings wrong with it... which I plan on fixing next time, but what do you suggest I do to fix this one?

Good job, I even marked it as a fav for future tutorials. I agree about the font, its small and hard to read and some of it looks blurry like "your site here" was blurry to me. But wtg.

Im no good at flash actionscript... so I wont be able to do anything with that... Im considering doing some other programs that I know how to use... but for now, just PS.

If anyone wants to submit tutorials or anything, Im open to that.

as for the "your site here" text, I dont see a problem with that... perhaps its your comp? Ill see what I can do though...

as for the tutorials altogether... I might be a little slow cause Ive been kinda busy and those four were things I could think of right off the top of my head.

thx for the suggestions
