hi all,

(sorry for Bad english :P)

i am shanid. i built a website with drupal. this is my first attempt. Actually i am not a web designer or a programmer. but i badly needed to built a site. after some googling i found details about CMSs. i started with joomla. but which is not fulfill my needs. then i moved to drupal. trust me drupal is awesome friends. but my problem was its very difficult to learn at starting. After reading many tutorials i learned a bit. thanks to the Gurus.

My plan is to create a Entertainment Portal. (but my situation is not allowing me) so its not hosted yet. i have taken a screen shot and uploaded here. your valuable suggestions and replies are welcome.

Details of my site:

core : 6.17
theme : arthemia (customized)
modules : views, cck, imagecache, lightbox, views slideshow, panels ctools, nicemenu.

Congrats on your first site. :) It looks pretty good for a beginner, probably better what I have created so far. I like the purple background but not so much the color bands on top. Personally I always think its important that the colors match the content of the website. And from what I can tell your site is about cars? Anyway, let me know when the site actually gets hosted and is live on the net. Im sure one can do a better review then. :)

thank you

Thanks for your review. this is not a car related site. those photos shown in the site is my personal snaps. those color bands were my photoshop experiments :P THIS SITE MAY NOT BE HOSTED :( I am ready to give its sources and photoshop files to anyone interested.

Typo in "Latst" and not

Typo in "Latst" and not enough contrast between purple and blank menu. I would make the menu clearer and more visible. I think colour bands are fine. Good job ditching Joomla :)
