Hi all, I'm new here so I will introduce myself. My name is Tim and I live in Sydney Australia (www.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au) I have just made a site about movies, I'm still working on it but I would like to get some feedback on it. The address is,
(www.freewebs.com/ravereviews) Soon I will be getting a Australian domain (.com.au) but not for a while.

Take Care,
Tim

looks ok

spelling mistake on the home page

" there" not good

as "there" is a contraction of "they are" the correct use would be "they're not good".

However why on earth would you want to say "my forum is rubbish go to this one instead"

DO NOT BE NEGATIVE on your site especially not on the home page. Use a call to action such as "Be part of something new! Join our forums and have your say about [subject]"

get a proper host as well, there are 1001 movie review sites so you will need a good USP if you are going to get noticed.

Chris.

That's a good point, thanks, I will fix that up. Other than that is there anything else that I should change.

Take Care,
Tim

G'day Tim
Although I'm far from a expert on web design Tim, these are my comments.
Firstly I believe you should think what your site is about. In your case it's entertainment...so lets be entertained. Although I'm a firm believer in the KISS princable "Keep It Simple Stupid" I think you could do with a bit of pizzaz on your front page mate.
Apart from that you have all the basics..good luck
