Design:
-Very generic
-Plain
-No real color-scheme
-Too white

Code
-Uses frames
-61 validation warnings
-Uses bloated tables and bad use of corners (so many elements). Try giving 'Nifty Corners' a try
-Javascript error

what do u mean by java script error? and validation warnings? are frames not good to use?

I don't get a JS error, I do get a CSS one though. In this part of your CSS
#submit2
{
background:rgb(180,180,180) url('arrow.gif') no-repeat center;
border:1px solid rgb(80,80,80);
color:inherit;
font-size:13px;
height 18px !important;
height:19px;
margin-bottom:2px;
width:25px;
}
You are missing a : after one of the heights. Validation warnings are errors in your coding. See them here (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ugplay.com%2F). The validator only reports 7 errors but the TIDY HTML validator (FF extension) is reporting 61 warnings. Yes frames are bad. They are bad if you care about search engines. They are bad because its hard for users to bookmark a page. If someone were to visit one of your pages directly rather than in the frameset they really would have no navigation. But I only see one iframe on your page and thats from one of your banner ads. As for the coding, you used tables for page layout. Tables shouldn't be used for page layout. They should be used to display data.

hmm thankx for the coments...any more ? please help out thankx

[ultimategp]

oh ok

[ultimategp]

i am soon going to add many more games to the site :)

[magicpaul]

Just changing the font would make it look a good deal better IMO.

I agree with Nick's comments also. Not a bad start tho! Keep at it! ;)

[ultimategp]

thankx for the comments...btw seems like that the games on the website load up much faster now so check it out and let me know if it does for you too :)

[cryonic]

You are currently using Times New Roman font... i think... Use Arial or Verdana for a start in this design.

[ultimategp]

[abrewitt]

It seems to be a mish mash of colors and angles that dont seem to work, sorry!

add a common theme for the site, choose some colors and stick with them!

Firefox prevented this site from opening 4 popup windows?

:eek:

[_Aerospace_Eng_]

Hmm I got no popups but then again I have JS disabled. I was trying to play some of the games but some didn't play for me due to coding errors.

[ultimategp]

[ultimategp]

[ultimategp]
