Please Review My Site

[toxicmoxy]

Hey Everyone,

I am new and I am learning.

I have had a fan-site open for about a month and I am trying to take it up a level.

Right now its an html site, but I am thinking of converting to PHP.

Please review. Any helpful tips would be much appreciated.

Thanx for looking :)

Well, from just looking at it... there's an aweful lot of white on the page. I would definatly add some color and maybe a background texture of some sort. It is also kind of narrow. You have it's width set at 600px, but you could easily go up to 750px for more space, and not hurt anyone with an 800x600 resolution. I also think it's very busy to look at. Way too much scrolling text going on.

From a coding standpoint it's not good at all. You have no doctype specified, you're using a table layout, not CSS, and you have 30 errors in the code, W3C Validator (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ffansites.hollywood.com%2F%7Eryanphillippe%2F).

Honestly, it looks like something I would find on Xanga or MySpace, neither of which I think you should strive for. I think taking it up a level would definatly be a good idea. Start with adding color and working on those errors. I would recommend switching to CSS as it has many benefits, but at least fix the errors.
