ZuneBrown.com

I am not good at making web pages. Please review the first page and the forum.
I like the look of the forum and I'm happy with it, but will consider any suggestions. The store page is ok, but could be improved. Any suggestions?

Not bad for someone new to doing websites but you have some work to do yet.

It validates horribly - you don't even have a DOCTYPE. Then again, 8 out of 10 websites for sale on np and elsewhere don't even bother with that first essential step, so don't feel bad! LOL

The colours... I know the domain is brown, but the shade you picked looks like...

In cleaning up the code you will learn a lot about web design. So make it good practice to have clean valid code.

Run your website through - http://validator.w3.org/ and try to fix the errors using their suggested fixes. A short cut to that is to use FF with the Tidy HTML Validator extension installed - a very valuable tool that I can not recommend any higher.

Thank you. I have noticed many websites use DOCTYPE, but never really understood why. I will run it through the validator and try to fix the errors.

I'm afraid the ugly brown will have to stay, though. It might be ugly, but brown Zune owners may appreciate it. I tried to make the brown stick out, without being overwhelming. I think I did ok in that aspect.
