Maaaaaaaahahaha. Who''s da king baby?
shut up.

yes you.



i have: ie6.0.2800.1106.xpclient.... etc. and 1024*768 res (which is pretty stupid since it looks okay at 640*480 anyways)

well, i like the site pretty well, overall.

a few random things im noticing:

. the homepage: i read 'e official LANDER-RELOADED website.' instead of 'Welcome on the official LANDER-RELOADED website.'
. the homepage: when you scroll, the little thing in the top-left of the frame goes away (scrolls away, rather) maybe putting it as part of the 'fixed' background?
. the forum page: content would be nice. you could at least move the two image links you have further down and centered... or have some info about the forums, or SOMETHING (anything!)
. the links page: whats up with the thing at the bottom? it looks like you folded the fabric of space around whearas the rest of your pages have cool half-planets fixed there.
. the links page: some flair! at least some CSS for a different 'hover' color on your links. at least some different colors, background, images, or something... (once again, anything would help)
. the downloads page: i like it. except... instead of 'the game requires DirectX 8.1 !' - make it 'this game requires DirectX 8.1' (changing it to 'this' and removing the exclamation point)
. and im still annoyed by the '-- Optimized for Internet Explorer 5.x and for 1024*768 resolution --' lurking at the top of every page in a way oversized frame... how many sites do you see that tell you what the page is optimized for?
. also on the homepage, make your
'Welcome on the official LANDER-RELOADED website.' an image (or at least bigger, colorful, with a background, or just interesting) say 'Welcome to the official LANDER-RELOADED web site' (on=to, website=web site, no period at the end)

anyways, just some thoughts.

why did you read ''e official LANDER-RELOADED website''? was the beginning of the line hidden under the home-picture? i''ve noticed that problem earlier, but thought it was solved, since it works fine on my computer. i''ll see what i can do.

i''ve noticed that. i''ll see what i can do about this one..

it should be an asteroid, since the game was planed to have an ansteroid-level. but if nobody can recognize it i''ll replace it with a planet.

what''s a ''hover'' color? you mean that it should change color when the cursor is over it? that''s a good idea.
anyway, i like the simple style the page has now, but i''ll see what i can do.

yes, ''this'' sounds nicer, but since i''m not a native speaker, i have problems with such linguistic finetunig.

the ''--- optimized for IE 5.x .. ---'' is just because, it doesn''t work in netscape navigator (and probably all other browsers). the page uses &#106avascript and some of the functions just only work in IE. and since i''m not very into php or flash or anything like that (actually i''m not very into &#106avascript either), i have trouble coping with this problem.<br><br>but i''ll remove that info or put it into the upper right corner with smaller fontsize.<br><br><BLOCKQUOTE><SPAN CLASS=smallfont>quote:<hr HEIGHT=1 noshade><br>. also &#111;n the homepage, make your <br>''Welcome &#111;n the official LANDER-RELOADED website.'' an image (or at least bigger, colorful, with a background, or just interesting) say ''Welcome to the official LANDER-RELOADED web site'' (on=to, website=web site, no period at the end)<br> <hr height=1 noshade></SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE> <br><br>thx, i''ll do that. there are more mistakes in the text, i think. i''ll try to fix them.<br><br><BLOCKQUOTE><SPAN CLASS=smallfont>quote:<hr HEIGHT=1 noshade><br>anyways, just some thoughts.<br> <hr height=1 noshade></SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE> <br><br>some very constuctive thoughts. thanks.<br>btw, the page is not so very important. it''s just a little site for a game two friends and i made out of boredom. and since i''ve last the source code of the game in a harddisk-crash i can''t even do updates &#111;n the game (a lot of people say it''s too hard, but i can''t do anything about that)<br>
