www.computer-tools.co.uk (help)

Hi eveyone, im just wondering if you could review my site ( www.computer-tools.co.uk )
for me, tell me what you think of it. im 16 years old and im intrested in website design.
sign the guestbook as i only have to entrys. Tell me what i should change about, the site and forum
(if it works) as it is new. I have no members at the moment, please help me getting it to look a bit more
professional.


thank you jobzy2004

It would help if we could actually access the site!! So my first suggestion is to get some decent web hosting.

im hosting from my own home, my my local ip address changed,
could you try again for me please.

thank you

Ok, I gonna be brutally honest....

1) You really should get yourself some proper web hosting. Hosting a web site on your local PC isn't ideal, especially when your IP address will keep changing.

2) The font you've used for the menu options (left hand side of the home page) is not just awful but some users may not necessary have that particular font on there PC. You should stick to a standard font such as Arial, Verdana, Helvetica which most if not all users will have installed on there PC.

3) You should get yourself a proper logo....not just some text at the top of the page which says www.computer-tools.co.uk.

4) If you look at your site via Firefox the navigation at the top of the page is missing!!

The one question I have is why are you hosting MP3 files for people to listen to (and easily download as well)? Surely this is illegal because your the infringing the copyrights of those artists and/or record companies!!

Thank Moderator for your review, I will see to the home page asap,

As for the mp3 files, I have taken that into consideration, but I will imeadiatly discontinue the mp3 file hosting if
I have a complaint (I have not had one YET lol) from someone "authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest" I so-pose I will get a warning first, when I get that warning I will remove them.

thank you for your opinoin.

do you think i should remove the mp3 files (music)
or do you think i should keep them there untill i get a warning from some one?

just your thoughts will do.

To be honest I would remove them.....especially with all the "fuss" that is going on with record companies trying to sue the likes of Kazaa, other file sharing communities and the people that use them. Although your site is not a file sharing community, you are still making available records for users to download for free and your not paying any royalty fees to the record companies.

is theft.

Are you stealing.

all of the music on the my website, i have on cd that i brought from the shops,
i never download music from kazza or any other music shareing sites.
