Is Ryan and Ryan247 the same person?

I've never known a Ryan in my entire life that wasn't a prick.

First of all, it's not valid HTML. There are 20 errors that you should easily be able to fix, if you're having trouble, look at the HTML 4.01 Specification. I'm glad that you at least know enough to remove the generator meta tag from your pages after they go through a WYSIWYG editor, but you need to do better. You can always get higher quality code when it's done by hand. Lots of it may validate well, but it's pretty messy.

Now you need to work on design aspects. First, the background has to go. It looks crappy and fake, doesn't even make sense with whatever theme you have going on. It's also not necessary to make your title a bunch of different colors, my eyes feel like they're going to explode (what they hell is with 2.0? try putting in a news section to announce site redesign). You also went ahead and used a dull pink background for your navigation table, which looks crappy with the blue links. You should learn CSS (which isn't always available with WYSIWYG editors) so that you can control the appearance. Many good looking sites look good because they use subtle colors or shades of grey. Take a look at the homepages for Slackware, Fire, or Apple Speaking of your navigation table, you might want to organize it. Instead of a gian clump of site, put them in groups. It will allow visitors to figure out where they're going and not why they're leaving.

I'm pretty new to writing HTML, but I know enough to recognize awful sites when I see them. To improve, check out this Google search. If you want, I could re-write the whole thing and easily make something that looks much better and has the same content (besides looking at a blank page).

No.

ryan247:
NO! There two different people.
You are wrong about all Ryan's being pricks.
I'm only a prick when provoked.
