[Website] Feedback for gaming website

Hey guys, I am finally ready to release my website into the public, but I was hoping you guys would take a look, and tell me your opinion on it. The address is http://ragus.110mb.com . You can leave a comment here, or on the shoutbox in the website. It is a website made specifically for guilds of the game Warhammer Online. My goal in mind when I was making it was to make reloading the entire page a thing of the past, and for the most part, I have succeeded. Oh ya, I know the page is kind of slow, I will be signing up for AN Hosting soon though. Well thanks! If you notice something that you think should be changed, please point it out! :D:

Looks alright.

You need a black background me thinks, and some tweaking and sharpening of the layout. The glow around the swords is cut off, and it doesn't really look at a whole...but you use JS / Ajax I see, that's very nice :).

I followed your suggestions Daevius, and made the BG black, I also moved the swords inward a bit, but it was chopping off part of the handles, so I had to move it back so the tip was right at the edge of the page. Replaced the vague orange marks at the top of the screen so its a small fire, sooo....is it better now? :D

the background of the swords is like dark red.
i say to go on photoshop and change those to black to match.
basically make your whole logo just blend as one.

I'm afraid I cannot make my whole logo "blend as one" because it causes problems with display on different size monitors. I did not see a dark red background behind the swords? There's just the swords, flame around them, and black...on my screen that is?

there is a magentaish color that separates it. i checked with 2 comps, google chrome and ie8. =]

Well thats why you are seeing the website differently....Chrome and IE8 are in beta stages, looks fine in firefox and IE7. Would you mind please posting a screenshot? :D

Looks 100% better now, you can also make the sword's image larger, so the flames won't be cut off.

Also, the pictures on top (the header, 3 images) have weird white lines right or left...also I think the buttons should be centred, and the body needs a more clear border me thinks :), but for the rest...looks much better now :)

Well....In my opinion, I could just take the swords, and make them 100% vertical, but it just wouldn't look right to me, I have it slanted 20%, and imo, It looks great as is. Hmm..about the white lines, I saw them when I was using a friends computer....I have no clue how they get there :/. I dont see them on my computer. I'll center the buttons right now. The border...well it fades...its supposed it...isnt it? lol

Aha!!! figured out those white lines, was some text that was hidden behind the header/buttons, im removing it now :)

Not loading for me :/

Lol wasn't loading for you because I was uploading the index.html a few minutes ago...try again. Again, sorry if it loads slow, but i'll get a new host soon.
