well good effort, but your site is 1 of the millions if not billions of similar sites. Do a search on yahoo for "geocities.com games" - you'll find a lot of similar sites. If your just experimenting, then nice work but if your serious about creating a site - you need to get real content, and remove the clutter (e.g. animated gifs, background music).

as said above .tk is pretty annoying and many will even refuse to take alook when they see it's .tk

skin could use some serious work...
i also vote against the animated gifs and all the other stuff
people might say 'oooh this looks great' but... chances are they don't want to hurt your feelings

best sites are like this one, no clutter (or not much) and easy to find what you need

umm i beg to differ with the "your site looks ok" because there are many members on this forum that do express their feelings about each other's sites very truthfully, even if they do hurt your feelings, they're really just telling you what they think would look more appealing to them, so it's just constructive criticism

ok my comments on this site... well you really dont want to know... but i'll try and be constructive..

ok i think you need to start with a proper design we shall start with that...
Design
Best way that i know is to draw it out on a bit of paper first then map where you want things to go.. e.g you want a header, a shoutbox on the left, content in the middle, your menu on the right and a footer..

Look at your forum as an example everything is neat and i a purposeful place..

Colours
Try and find 2 to 3 colours that you like and think match (just a hint: would try and stay away from really strong colours.. and black backgrounds can be limiting) do a search of websites and look at their colour schemes.

Animations
As the others said can be really annoying and off putting, there ok to use, but you don't want them to distract your viewers from the main content, keep the animation minimal.

Ok, there’s my little spill.. keep trying you don't always have to publish a website that you make.. make them in private and try and change the way you do things.. there are plenty of tutorials on x10hosting and the web that can help with even the small things.

Edited: the second is much better, everything is neatly placed and the colours arent to gaudy.. if you want to have a look at some designs.. have a look at deviantart.com...

To be honest, this site is pretty crappy. I dont like it at all. However, i admire that you have began designing and developing your websites.

Everyone gotta start LOW LOW down, but with all the fun making websites, they will get better over time. Try find more resources using google, and dont use dot.tk domain, its bad, have ads...

i think it's a pretty good looking site since you're only 10 years old, i wish i was already into computers at that age, i just started a few years ago and i'm fifteen right now

he has a great site for a 10 year old... i started making mine when I was 13...
You probably have a great future ahead of you when it comes to web designing since you started early and seems to enjoy what you are doing..

Try www.uni.cc for a DNS name...

The colour's don't seem to be that good, also don't do use piczo, those website are truly meant for kids, you need to use a different web hosting place.

I agree. The design is far too messy for my tastes... it took me forever to find any games.
