Good job!

I did notice that all of the links on this page (http://ccb056.zapto.org/compbuild.php) pointed to HTML files, but the actual files were PHP.

I didn't quite understand this quote from the CD-ROM/Optical drive page, though.
In reality, you will never see the media spinning at 56x because it would take much time to get there and by the time it did, the reading would have been over.

thanks for the html link problem, ill fix it

about the quote:

it takes time for the media to get to 56x, and in that amount of time, the media has already finished reading, say it takes 5 mins to get to 56x, but only 4 minutes to read the entire cd, based on this, it will never spin at 56x, understand?

thanks for the comments

I'm still not sure if that's correct. If a 56x drive is working as it should, it will reach 56x at the end of the disc if the disc is nearly full. If you are referring to rotational speed, the drive probably takes no more than 10 seconds to reach it's maximum rotational speed.

it do away w/ the borders around the cells, make the text a little smaller, make the reviews section readable, but i think youre working on it

there was one picture place w/ flashing background, maybe its just me, but i dont really like flashing stuff

i like your forum and i think that dynamic content is critical to a website, im putting a link to your website on mine, maybe youll do the same eh?

I used dreamweaver for mine and I got Dreamweaver MX for $100 instead of the normal $300 or $400 since I'm a student. Thanks for the tips, I've been meaning to remove the flashing background on the LAN party pictures page but i forgot about it. I dont like it either, my friend did that when we were sharing the website. Now his is at www.randomreview.com Turkeyscore used to be a big tye dyed gif but i didnt like it very much. what do you think of the gif/jpeg idea?

It looks like the site (at least the main page) has changed?
