tell me what you think guys and please make sure to check the picture section
EDIT : Those slogans ad shits like "enter the desolation" are just for trial, I can change them however you want

the music part should say LINKS or MYSPACE instead... the desig looks great, the main pic looks a bit pixelated, you should ask for a bigger version or just make it smaller with a black background, just a few ideas, I like the fonts, great job dude, great job, lucky fuckos this swedes, they got a webpage for free

ahha thanks. The thing is that the guys don't have enough "promo" pictures ! I didn't have many ideas. I will ask for a bigger picture.
And it's free as long as they want to keep it on a free host server or at least the same domain name otherwise, they can pay for a new domain name like "desolator.com or desolator.swe" or a whole private host.

EDIT: thanks for the suggestions and comments Nicky, I will see if the band is for it or not

The band promo pic on the main site is too big in my opinion. Every time I click a link it requires me to scroll down to read, to me that's a bad design choice. Myspace always has those overgrown logos at the top as a good "intro" thing, but on a main site it looks clumsy to me because clicking on links always resets the page position. If you have the HTML knowledge it would be better to have it more dynamic, have the NEWS pop up on the current page when you click it, not reset to a new page and thus stick me back at the top with the giant band pic.

Might even consider giving the pic like a 50% fade, and have the NEWS or BIOGRAPHY appear on top of the pic when you click the links instead of below it. Making it more transparent would look cool and it would make reading just as easy. That's just a random thought though might not be great in practice

Just my first thoughts.

Belac, excuse my English, but could you make it any clearer? haha what logos at the top? you mean the band's pic as a header/banner?
Also, I didn't bother editing those pictures as I don't like doing that, i will see if my sister or anyone else could do that for me. I know it doesn't feel comfortable scrolling down with each pic.
I didn't get this "If you have the HTML knowledge it would be better to have it more dynamic, have the NEWS pop up on the current page when you click it, not reset to a new page and thus stick me back at the top with the giant band pic."
btw, I didn't use any software for the design, just coding with CSS, HTML, PHP.

I was refering to the main band pic, the guys at the top of the stairs. It's gigantic and takes up most the page. I was not talking about the pictures page, but the whole site.

The picture at the top of every page is huge, so if you scroll down to read maybe the BIOGRAPHY page, and then click on the RELEASES link it sends you back up to the top of the page, and you have to scroll down a bunch to read about releases. This sounds nitpicky but once the page has more info/updates it'll be kind of goofy looking to have that giant pic at the front of each page and having to scroll down to read.

"If you have the HTML knowledge it would be better to have it more dynamic, have the NEWS pop up on the current page when you click it, not reset to a new page and thus stick me back at the top with the giant band pic."

What I meant by this is when you click a new link, have the information you requested appear on the same page, rather than going from page=biography, to page=releases. Keep it all on a front page. I don't know if this is making any sense my HTML knowledge is pretty limited, I never cared about it much.

Missed this. I was only suggesting editing the top banner pic. It was a random idea though not a criticism. If you faded the banner pic a bit, and had the text for each page/link appear over top of the band pic instead of below it (the fading of the picture is to keep the text readable) it might look cool, and be more convenient. This would assume you use a scrollbox. So you'd click NEWS or whatever and a scroll box would appear on a layer above the top Banner/Header pic and you could keep everything on one screen

I thought of it at first, and i used iframe for that. but it was too slow to move from one page to another. I'll give it another try tho. I used the "include" PHP function instead yet it still load the whole page, i don't know any other way to make it dynamic ! I will work on it tho
I've just done everything within like three days or something. So it's just a quick thing, just an idea. Thanks for the suggestions !

lol, yeah I know just thought I'd give my two cents, my html sucks.
This is what I meant, except done with actual effort. I threw that together in like 5 minutes.

 

[hexwind]

I like it that way !
the problem is when using an iframe and you have to change its content with each link !
