Hi Vinny-

While your concept is good... you should consider adding a style sheet (css) and a professionally designed logo to give the site that "something special". you may also want change your <title>index</title> to your site name and some some nice keywords relating to your site.

The forum looks good, you may want to consider a different skin... something a little more travel related. you can find some good ones to install at phpbbhacks.com. Also adding a "reviews" section couldn't hurt. I am endlessly looking for resort reviews.

Good Luck
Jennifer

Agreed with ManicGirl and worldstar... also add a little navigation under the logo with some links on it.

Hey,

It's not that bad but it's very unorganized, IMHO. Why is your menu in the footer ? it should be in the header.

All the best,

I like the background colour for some reason, but it ends at that. Very unorganised.

Website


Its not a bad website, everything easily accesible etc. Im figureing u used HTML right? Consider having a logo designed and put some of the links on the left hand side of the page to fill it out more.

It is a little plain. You said check out the forum and yet I couldn't find it. It is too crowded. To start I would say get a header image and a nice layout from someone on Name Pros. Start with getting your site into that layout then I would suggest implementing CSS into your site. After that post again for a review.

Hey vinny,
mmm
you're website is to simple,
You should reorganize everything into a much better structure.
Also i would not harm you using some graphical pieces.Like a logo as manicgirl said.
The website looks also a little dead to me.What i mean with that is , it looks like an old website which hasn't been updated for months or years.while the webmaster forgot about it.
Maybe look at some other professional travel sites.
here are some that i found:
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-design-reviews/109127-travel-site.html
http://www.expedia.com/
http://www.travelocity.com/

And instead of advertising a host on you're website , you should have banner adds of things related to travel .
More colors , ... etc.
Well i hope you have enough advice till now.
While you done those things , come back and show us the website.
I would love to see it updated.

Good luck

regards , niek

No design, start out by creating a logo then a header then a footer.
