Nice job! well done! Looks very clean and professional, good color scheme, but the graphics are loading kinda slow.

Good job!

i agree, very nice template. the images are loading a bit slow for me too. you might think about laying your images out differently too. seeing as that is the main bulk of the site, making it a bit less like a long list of over sized images would be good. perhaps a table of thumbnails that can lead to the full sized images would be better?

some nice stuff there though!

Thanks for the good feedback peeps. The design was off! I totally didn't realise what the size of those images would do to the layout. Its fixed now. its only slow loading temporarily due to the images of the xbox 360.

The bit on the background at the top is a bit messy apart from that it is nice!

Not too bad, but needs a lot of improvement.

First of all, this image...
http://www.microsoftxbox360.info/pic/3.jpg

...is a bit large, resize it in an image editor, not the webpage.

Also, the text is very small in my browser (FF), make it at least 12px, or don't specify a size.

looks good imo

Nice layout, I really like the colors. Besides the pic thing that has already been mentioned; I have two more things one: the phrase (search the site) that you placed under the word search is too close. It makes it look like it’s supposed to be a shadow effect (even though this is not your intention) and makes it hard to read. Two: the Google ad under the word sponsor overlaps the green separator.

FYI - I'm using Firefox 1.0.3

Not that impressive in my opinion. The site is just wordpress with css changes.
