Your site is about as homely as they get but your various formats work and the navigation is good. I'd have to say little about much. Good job! (IE6 56k dial up) :D

As you posted, this is a work in progress. You are hoping to replace the boring theme. How about the logo in the top left corner? It looks like a newspaper instead of a wrestling site. Try a WILD font that kicks butt. Use colors that are exciting like black, yellow and red, maybe orange.

My dad likes wrestling and he used to take us to see it live. Remember Andre the Giant? He reached to shake my hand and his hand covered my arm! Now I saw these people in the early 80s as a teen. One time a wrestler picked up one of my crutches (I had knee surgery, but everyone joked that I was a wrestler) and hit another wrestler with it. My grandmother threw chairs. You know, wholesome family entertainment. Well, my son will be six next Monday, but we don't let him watch this stuff. He is rowdy enough with fighting on the bus.

It would be cool to have sound bites, if possible. If you sneak a tape recorder into a wrestling match, you could use that. ;) Just try to add some extra stuff to jazz up the site. Maybe a mouseover sound effect where someone points the mouse at an image or link and hears OW!

At least your forums are exciting! Ha ha. Too bad you can't have pics. Even if you took your own, I don't know if they would allow it. I know I have pics of Superfly in action and other pics somewhere that I took myself. Maybe you could make cartoons or caricatures. I just know that it is plain now, but very informative and interesting.

Hey, ask Randy Savage for a sound bite. He does cartoons, commercials and other things and he is actually a nice guy. Or just have a few friends make believe for fun. OHH! YEAH!

Hey All,

Looks good, but font is small and hard to read. I agree more color needed.

It's a bit grey but it looks good and loads nice and fast. I see the forums are getting hits which is a good sign. You have a Google PageRank of 3/10 which is also good. Good luck with it.

I think I fixed the text size. Its now set to whatever your default text size is. Some things look a lil big, but for the most part everything is fine. :) I will work on adding more color soon. I am trying to NOT make it look overly unprofessional
