Interesting... if I might just comment that the little in-between images you get when you click a link seem a little... superfluous? *gets frying pan* I'm being picky again. I'll shut up now.

Nice, though.

Hello, welcome to the forums! I love looking at other's sites. Hmmm... *Looks* Ok, here are my comments:

On your main page, don't leave so much space at the bottom. If you get rid of that, it will look neater. Also, having the Oddworld.com main pic may not be such a good idea. Using your own image would personalize your site more.

Your idea of using the different stations is very creative, but perhaps get rid of that transition page.

The content is very good, however. The overall layout is great as well. Keep it up!

I think Sligstorm was going to be a game supplementary to AE/AO, but it got shelved, at least for now... About an albino sliglet, do I remember reading somewhere?

*sighs*

Thanks for all the comments,

Looks like the interchanges between stations is the thing that people don't like. It was originally their that if u clicked on the wrong link u could go back.

Please tell me if you hate anything else on it, i don't care, it will help better the site.

By the way if more people complain about the interchanges then thats probably when i scrap them.

Thanks,

Alcar

I like it, but I think some of the fonts on the headings look a bit plain... you can make pictures and put them in if you don't have enough fonts on Geocities. It would also be nice if you could do more personal work, like perhaps reviews on the games, some art (if you're any good at it ), downloads etc. Overall I like the layout, good work.

Your site looks good, for a start. It needs more content, though, but it seems that you intend to do tha in a near future, right?

I also don't like the interchange pages, because they make it longer to get to the page you want. You could solve this problem just putting a link to the main page in every content page.

What you've done with the main OWI logo was cool, but you could be more original, hehe. And one more complain (the last, I assure you): the background picture in the main page makes it hard to read the text, becuse it is too light.

The idea of a site made by a mudokon is nice (I myself always planned to make a fan site managed by a certain mudokon called Lampion, hehe) and there are a few original and good ideas in your site, too: the member page, the history page, and the competitions page.

Keep up the good work, folk!

Thanks, looks like the interchange pages will have to go due to much hatred.

The fonts i can't change sorry arial is the best i can do (i hate times new roman)

The intro page in which i took the official oddworld picture took me 2 1/2 hours to do, so im not about to change it right at the moment.

The picture that is too light on the main page is very dark on my computer so the white stands out for me. Different computers must have different colour/light.

I do intend to update it,of course.

I am mainly updating the Universe section for now, but if another section should be done first then tell me. Become a member if you want to only got 2 at the moment, myself and a friend.

Don't worry there will be more.

And as always the link is below and remember the slogan!
