It's a start.

It needs work.  

1) The choice of blue letters for links (and purple letters for followed links) on a purple background is not easy to read.

2)  Your pages do not conform to HTML standards.  This is pretty important... I'd suggest you check them yourself at http://validator.w3.org

3)  You should clean up the pages and give them a uniform look.. try using a cascading style sheet css

4)  Some of your links are broken.

5)  Don't embed mp3's on the main page with a loop=true.  Embedded music gets annoying.

I think the layout sucks. But you're a beginner so... here is some tips: 1) use CSS, that should help you 2)Create a cross-browser compatible 3)Buy adobe photoshop; killer graphics program; better than paint.

I think so too. Did you do it clean in HTML? I dig the really old designs of web pages, back when the interent didn't suck.

yes. all of it is hand coded, made to look like the good old days. I miss those times, when a web site was just that. a website... not some 25MB flash-req'd, super animated ordeal.

I remember them. When your idea of creating graphics was leeching tons of animated gifs from other sites and putting them all on the front page. *sigh* Good times, good times.

Yeah, I would have to agree with what everyone else said. But who am I to speak. Even though I think i could do better.

Version 3.0 is better, although the blue link text for services on a blue sky background is BAD.  

You really should consider switching to CSS.  It will clean up your html code alot and likely make your page load faster.  You can also change the layout of the page quickly and easily in the future, if you start using CSS.

It still doesn't conform to w3 standards.   Noticably you don't have a DOCTYPE statement.  Standards should be a priority for every web author, although IMHO it is better for beginners to first make their page, then clean it up and make it standards compliant.

Hi,

My name is Ryan! My friends and I got together and beat our faces against a keyboard one day and this website came out!

Marvel at my use of primary colors! Look in awe at my ability to mix and match fonts! And finally, be astounded at these animated GIF files.

My website sucks buffalo shlong, but I'm too much of a useless pussy to admit it!

Your friend,
Ryan
