Well its not illegal but it is generally frowned upon by most bodies.
Whats on the torrents is illegal, be it music, movies or programs.
unless of course the material made available by siad tracker...

Looks nice m8. The logo works well.
The header bars are a little in-your-face, but not over powering the rest of the site.
The colour scheme is good, in so far as its constant and linear.
Also the...

The general design of the site/pages looks amateurish. I would take a look at some other sites and try to emulate theirs and then design your own using what you learned from that experience.
Also an...

I can also skin just about anything if needed. And i wont charge silly prices.
email me if youd like to talk about it.
im available on MSN, IRC or email if you prefer. PM for details.

The forum in itself is nice and clean, although there seems to be a competition or confustion over the colour scheme used.
I would probably stick with the primary colours and concepts used in the...

Nice site design and layout.
I would try to keep fonts used on the site consistant throughout though.
Also the boxes used on the pages expand with the background image repeating.
The boxes are...

I also got a 404 - not found.
Looks like the site has been taken down as torrents are often considered illegal.

wisegangsta: i believe you are talking about a bit torrent client called Azureus....

I like this site. very clean and simple. Nothing overcomplicating it.
one small thing though is the little rating popup on say the arcade page when u mouseover the game/link.
The appearing text is...

Ok i guess mine is the role of the blunt mean person.
I find the site extremely 'simple' and by that i mean basic in every way.
It lacks color and coheasion.
there is no descernable 'layout' that...

p.s. the abundance of similar sites should make it easier via the use of affiliates and such. ;)

Personally im so very bored of seeing vbulletin all over the place. This is another forum that does nothing to hide that fact too.
if you want to appear as a central source for web developers, you...

Firstly the most immediately obvious thing is that the header of the site is a set width. Yet the rest of the site (it seems) is dynamicly 100% wide. Upon resizing the window the rest of the site is...

The top 'boxes' should all have rounded edges really to match the rest of the boxes.
Other than that, Nice site. Easy on the eyes. And pleasant colours used.
All round nice really.

Doesnt seem to have any kind of structure to the site.
Its also very graphic intensive. Not advisable for dialup users.
I dunno, it just seems cluttered to me. Try lay things out a little better....

Not much work really. The longest thing would be the coding cos i havent actually finished yet. but really id have to say hour to hour its the graphics, just takes time really. The coding is easy,...

The template (graphics and html) took around 4 hours. plus a few 20 minute jobs to tweak and adjust it. like i said, did that 6 times. So a total of 6 hours for the graphics and html template.
We...

Yeah those are just place holders for banner images.
Will be used for sponsors and suppliers later on when its opened to the public.

Hi, recently hwguru changed hands yet again, due to its second owner essentially giving up on it (again)
So i made him a meager offer for it which he agreed to.
The work in progress page is here:...

Yeah, umm.. The main page .. who are the names ?
The homepage needs a little info, firstly a simple welcome and explain what on earth the site is, or is about. Mention its purpose perhaps.
And of...

The header is perfect. absolutely spot on.
The links however dont contrast very well. Blue isnt a good idea on orange. it hazes for some users. Doesnt follow the strong contrast principle you set in...

Hi,
Ditch the sound, it takes time, its annoying and its not really that good a loop.
And it would look more coherant if the top background (the dark-ish blue) was the same as the rest of the...

Nice minimalistic layout, simple in design. tho the folder hierachy could do with a bit of work, seems all higgledy piggeldy.

Yeah i agree with the above, a little style would do wonders.
