Please do NOT flame me :(
I'll get better on PhotoShop :)
After all I just learning how to use the PhotoShop ..
Suggestions are welcome!
Thanks :)

...
Nothing matches at all.

Edit: I guess I'll put in some random advice as well.

You used like 7 different fonts.
Seriously, only use like 2. Maybe 3. MAYBE.

Don't outline or use gradients on text that can change dynamically.
Basically I'm looking at the Rankings "box" and the server status box.
CSS coding can't outline or gradient text.

Why not ?
Instead of doing half thing, finish it.
you telling me that it's not matchs ...
Well, suggest me what to do ..
And how to do.

Well try adding something in the right side. It looks unbalanced. But I like the background. You did get better.

Thanks Nick :)
I'll try t add something there, but I can't think on what to add there XD

Any suggestions on what to add to the right side ?

Well first things first.

It's ugly.

Second of all. there are just simply renders on the website, making it look ugly. Third off, The GM BLog section is just plain ugly. Reason is simple, the gradient and text is simply ugly and misplaced.
The banner uptop is also ugly.

Okay. So basically it looks like you put a bunch of different things together and just stuck them on the same canvas.

You need to work on color scheming and alignment.

I mean, at least get color scheming correct.
You know, like knowing how clothing match together.

YEAH. I DON'T CARE IF IT SEEMS FEMININE BUT I KNOW HOW TO MATCH CLOTHING.
And it really helps in designing to know what looks good.

Just stick to 1 to 2 colors for now.
1 color is easy. 2 colors, you gotta make sure they go together.
Then, you can also use different shades of that 1 or 2 colors by adjusting their brightness level.
And then use black and white, of course.

Now for alignment, really, you gotta make a web design like a puzzle.
They need to all fit together and form a nice rectangle.
I mean, they don't have to, but you aren't near the mastery level of GFX needed to do that sort of thing and make it look good.
I probably can't even do that.

So, for an example of this... we'll be using your design and my MetroMaple v2 design.

Yours

See how nothing fits at all? And it's also not balanced, you have a random box on the left, but nothing on the right.

I don't even have to use markings on this. Each element has a clear and distinct place in the design. Nice and organized and all that good stuff.

Oh and I added more stuff to my first post while you replied to it.

Width of website is just a teeny bit big.... It should be around 900px -> 1000px to fit most screen sizes.

Nick.
That background is straight from Nexon.

What in the world is hide and sick?

For one, i find the bottom part of the whole thing way too empty.

You have such a bunched up design uptop, then towards a bottom it's two boxes and that's it.

For one, it looks nastily ugly. The place where the demon slayer is, i'd expect a box there, and one on the otherside t o balance things out.


I promise you, you did not get better lol.


AND THE HORRID PORKY FONT ATTACK

I can't move the Demon Slayer since it's a part of the background O_O

And yes Zaytrex, I took it from Nexon.

Wut.
Is that balance thing the only thing you got out of that?
Everything else I said is clearly much more important.
And no I will not teach you.
I don't teach people.
It's... frustrating.
