Well, it's been a couple months in the making (3 to be exact) and it's near completion. There are still a few minor things I would like to add to the site, but we (the staff) all felt it was time to see what the public thought.

Here's a list of what the site has to offer you:

Any possible way I could get that compliment to be a little more elborate though? Criticism ? Positive or Negative is fine. ;)

Thanks for the comment. The site is kind of more of a 'laid back' site. And so, it's not entirely gramatically correct (while there are no spelling errors, other than user posts). I feel that it gives the site a better look without the capitalization, however, I will try capitalizing it. :)

No,no,no...I meant if that's what u want...I mean, I get mood swings all the time...so I don't really matter...it depends on the majority of the public....this site is great though!!! ;)

I might be new to this, but I'm wondering what you actually offer not that I didn't read up top, but reading the about area is lengthy and I really didn't want to read it all. A brief description would be nice.

p.s. on the What is Xinil.net: area the 3rd to the last sentence you mispelled aren't or is it how you write it. In Aussie and Kiwi land I believe words lik won't and can't are spelled wo'nt and ca'nt.

Colors are a good choice. They aren't too crazy and doesn't hurt the eyes. Pictures loaded fairly quickly and nicely and I agree with the way you're pictures open up in a predetermined window. I have that with my site and it doesn't make it over-navigation, meaning you gotta hit the damn back button everytime it loads in the same window.

On the poll, do I have to register first in order to vote. Polls normally give a choice first before showing the results.

In the movie section I was actually hoping for actuall movie trailers or some sort. I didn't feel the need to click on anything.

The spider story in the news section freaked me. I'm gonna wear ear muffs from now on in bed. I hate spiders.

I'm done.

Really, really nice. It's amazing how good the site looks, even without some extraordinary GUI. You should be proud on this one.
