www.posting4pixels.com - Reviews needed

I am currently an admin at www.posting4pixels.com, and the site has just been started up.

I am wondering what you guys think of the layout of the site, and I really need suggestions of things to add or remove from the site, also any other general overall comments of the site would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian

I really need some reviews of the site.

Anything would really be helpful here. I am trying to get members and I can't figure out what should be changed to make it better.

I like it personally, I just wasn't so fond of the big huge map and you only have like 4-5 things on it. So i would say shorten the map for now. Once you get more things then you can make the map bigger

Good design, I'd Suggest you have a bigger Nav. Bar. Just gets swamped by the Pixels...

Actually I believe the height of the navbar could be shrunken... and the links could be actual text links instead of images. just use css to style it. the background pic is REALLY nice..but what happens if you fill up the page? it won't be there lol.

Maybe.. have a better website, then have like a popup for all the ads, i reckon that would be nicer. The site could be developed well and it would improve the whole proffessional look of it. Nice though.

Thank you for the suggestion about the links. I'll look into doing that, right now it is a css image map and it is all in that one top image.

As for making the image smaller, what size do you think would be more appropriate?

-------

As for making a popup for all the ads...what do you mean by that? Are you talking about when you click the images to have them open in a new window or what?

Lastly, thank you for the suggestions, many more are welcome.

What i mean is, have a proper layout then when you click the link to "view ads" a window pops up with your area mapped image ^_^

agree with coolprogram about the map
i think your site needs some identification or description
as a user at the first glance i can't understand its topic (free games # free hosting # sold&available)

So what do you suggest....having some sort of box on top of everything telling about the site the first time a visitor visits (done with cookies and/or maybe IP), and having the box have a close button, kind of like the popin ads?

 

[brianmn]

I now have a box that pops up once per browser session on the site. How does that look? And does it give users enough information?

Also I looked into making the map smaller, and it would require a lot of work, removing all the pixels, and then putting them back on the smaller one, and when I want to resize it again, I would have to do the same.

I would appreciate any other suggestions people might have.

Thanks,
Brian

Edit:
Rep added to Rajo for that great suggestion.
