Hello!

I own a car tuning website www.auto4tuning.com that I personally designed and coded and I want to ask you guys:

What do you think about it?

What sould be improved?

It would be great if you could give it an overall mark from 1 to 10 (1 beeing the worst and 10 the best)

Thanks in advance

I like it a lot. The design is 10 out of 10. If you add more text (articles or reviews) it will be even better!

Hi

Nice clean site. Well done for hand-coding it!

Some pointers:

You're HTML isn't valid: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbos...om%2Findex.php

I'd like a hover-state for your navigation buttons, such as a change of background. The right hand column looks a little messy with the center and justified text alignments.

You don't need the clock on the top right. It just adds page loading time and most computers have a clock. If you really want a clock, you don't need seconds.

The title of the page doesn't change, e.g when I go to "Photos" the page title doesn't change to e.g. ".::auto4tuning.com : Photos::."

You don't have a META description, which may help with search engine optimisation. Also you could make your META keywords and description relative to the page.

Tables are slow and not very good for design, you might want to consider using a tableless layout. This means coding with divs and spans.

The alignment on the video page should be tidied up. Maybe aligning to the left.

There is a large whitespace in the contact page.

If you spend some time thinking about the speed of the site and doing some tweaks then you have a nice website. Well done.

VERY well done! You've got everything i'd expect to see, except some embedded flash video on the front page would be great. You already have the Video Gallery, bring a random video to the frontpage, it would give you instantly more entertainment character. (mini player?)

The site itself might need frame that replicates the custom work that many tuners put in their vehicles by using fiber glass, try to get the visual to represent that on your site.

Other than that, nice accomplishment!

It's a good layout... but I don't think it matches the theme of the website.
