got a chance to look at both sites. the psp site looks and feels a little empty, and nearly half of the page is devoted to your menu followed by ads then comes the content, you might try placing the ads to the right or left so they are not so distracting. your forum colors and site colors don't match-they should. You might try using the color scheme of your forum for the rest of your site. The menu at the top doesn't seem to fit into the site. i think the black strip and the sony psp forum logo look good, but then the font used for your menu is so different, maybe a more tech feel to the font would work better?

the other one, mkremer seemed much more polished, but do you want to be pushing ads on friends and family since that is who the site is designed for? the colors were nice, i use a similar background color and like it a lot. the blue strip on the left seems like it is waiting for some kind of content? other than that, i didn't login so can't say too much about the content, but overall a nice look and feel. also, "Don't forget to Bookmark this page" - you can't see it, white on a light background.
hope that helps you some

Tested in IE6 56k modem 800x600. First URL doesn't seem to work. Second one seems very slow to load particularly the Flash. Might be nice if the links changed colour when the mouse is passed over them. Not keen on the scrolling marquee at the bottom. Otherwise, a good solid design. Good luck with it.

Well, that's why I couldn't see it..

Your personal site is real nice. Totally agree with what's been said above with the ads on the site. Good move by creating feedback forms instead of email links. Cuts down on the spam nicely.

Tested at 1024x768 with DSL. Flash loads fine, but maybe not for dial-up. Is it compressed? Nice graphical layout! Helen's resume' links do not work. Also might consider auto-stretching or centering it a bit more. Looks fine in 800X600.

Very nice... I wish I was as talented with graphics... I guess it'll come with time...

I changed it so that it opens up in a window that's 800x600, it just looks more refined I think. Thanks everyone for your comments.
