I'm looking at it in FireFox 1.0.4 with a widescreen res of 1280 x 800, and I can't get much of it to display properly. One of the main things is that the menu isn't lined up properly, which messes up the rest of the page. So I looked at it in 1024 x 786, and it still didn't line up.

So, 1st thing, get everything lined up. Otherwise, I can't give a proper rating or any really good suggestions.

800x600 the site is so wide I could land an F-18 on it. The layout is not terrible but could use a bit of work, not to bad work on the content but keep working at it.

#1- The layout should be 800x600 compatible and neater.
#2- Grammar and spelling are your friends.

eh, theres a couple of spelling and grammer errors... stay clear of those... if at all possible... and like I always tell most new sites, content, content, content... oh yea, and work on developing a more compatible & what word to insert, flowing... all i could think of... layout... an amazing layout is what attracts them, content is what keeps them coming... XD, atleast I think... ^^

Work on your Pokemon of the Week. You should at least have all of their TMs/HMs/Moves/etc. =S

Also...your information is a bit haphazard...hard to find something you really want to see.

BTW- Just out of curiousity, how many unique visitors do you get a day?

I fixed all the spelling. Now content is very dificult to make. I try to consontrate on the info of new pokemon. I only get 2-10 hits a day okay, thats why I need to advertise.

I really should join some topsites as well.

Anyway, everything but the home page has an uneven layout. I'd suggest making something to give the different areas (navbar\content\banner) a more fluid look. It might help fix the uneven look of the layout.

Also, if you have PHP enabled, try using the tutorial in the "Resources\Reference!" topic in Webmaster Resources. Under the PHP\MySQL section is a small tutorial on how to turn your layout into one page, and the content into seperate pages. Trust me, it cuts down on the time and work needed.

Nice, I can see what effort you put on that site. Try getting a set template for the whole site though.
