I've recently started a new site called www.macgo.net
I know that there are many mac sites available, but I think its always good for new and fresh material. So if you have time, take a look...
Love some feedback!

one suggestion, when a user clicks on a link that takes him out of your site, have it make a new window. (I clicked on a download, then closed the window, only to find nothing...) just a suggestion....

looks great, btw, i am impressed...

Looks really great, but does it make sense to establish another discussion forum, i mean: if i have a serius prob, i will post here because normally after a very short period i have constructive answers...

Only an idea..

Well, if you post on my forum you will also get an answer quickly! I have very active members that are happy to help you out!
We are still a very small site but as time goes by traffic will build up! We have got to start somewhere...

The more macsites the better I think!

I am simply replying to people's comments/questions? Is this wrong?

BTW, didn't you "bump" this thread by replying to it!

Hi,

Just thought I would mention that many things have happened to the site in the last couple of months! There are now new sections online plus lots of updates to the old ones...

I like the layout and color scheme. Very nice.

I do think the use of <B>ed and <BR>eakfast markup is something of a shame, though. But that may just be me being pedantic about standards again.

Thanks for the feedback, would you care to explain a bit more in detail to what you mean about the markup? Is there something wrong with the HTML?

Thanks

Just thought I would mention that I have totally redone the design of macgo. Would be cool to find out what you think of the new look?
I have so far redone the frontpage and the forum, the other sections still use the old design...

Thanks

Ditto here. The text is very lite and hard to read.

hmmm, what do you prefer with the old design? The intention with the new design is to make the site cleaner and easier to navigate. I believe the text size is the same as before.
Love some detailed fedback!

thanks
