I re-launched the site this week.

I designed the front end and then implemented a WordPress blog system to power it from the back. Had to change a fair amount of files within WordPress so it would do the functions I wanted.

Also using the RC5 candidate release of PHPBB 3. Seems pretty good so far!

Let me know your thoughts

Seems nice, I like the news feed. The design is also nice.

Few things I don't like though:
1. On my widescreen the website only takes up like half the screen.
2. The CSS is not linked, it's on the page. Just means i gotta download more code when on every page.
3. Use of javascript is lame, when I turn it off most of the page goes funny (Links don't work etc).
4. I like the use of Div's for the layout, but...why is there a table at the bottom for something a bit of css can fix without a problem?
5. Markup is invalid (The W3C Markup Validation Service).

JavaScript is only used for the random image script... Please show me a screen shot of it going funny, I cannot replicate this.

The site has been built in a day, the CSS / Table stuff is being lazy. I will be sorting it all out, the issue was the site had been down for two weeks and the opening to get it back out there was closing rapidly.

site looks good :)

Also noticed that new on there that F&F4 is going ahead. Cheesy as they are, I love those movies (well, 2 was ok, but the first and third were good) Interesting that the rumours think that it will bring a variety of characters back from the previous films. will have to put a movies post about this one up!!
