I don't think the Duron and ATC case in the banner help it look any newer, not bad though.

Basic looking sight. Still works with no CSS which is good. Site is Useable.

My only gripe is that the drop down list for news and reviews won't work with JavaScript turned off.

You need to bring the site style up to date though.

Is there a way to make the dropdowns work without js?

Also how do you suggest I bring it upto date?

Get rid of the :'s from the top and bottom;

:Home: :News: :Forums: :Guestbook: :Guides: : Hardware Reviews: :Software Reviews: :Contact: :About:

Change the left navigation menu

If you must have the W3C buttons then put them right at the bottom

Id also look at changing the banner picture as it looks pretty rushed. Appologies if its just a "sketch-up" to show what things are going to look like but if not and your photoshop skills arent the best then I, and many others, can give you a hand

My photoshop skills are prety bad sadly, if you would not mind making me a banner that would be brilliant

I know this was stupid but I got playing with your design and had a re-think on some of the elements, I was bored, shh!

Yep, no curly bits on the ends of 'Trebuchet Ms', its a websafe font too. I hope all I did was CSS anyways, I know I changed the navigations to be lists and cleaned it up a tad but It'd have been good to get loads of OcUKers to add on styles to your styleswitcher!

Same, I never use them but If I was forced to I'd have a look for those pixel type ones :cool:
