"Fantastic Webdesign Services"
They use frontpage. They suck at graphic design. They use clipart. The worst part is, they actually have clients.

Their fucking site sucks ass...I would never pay someone to design my site if their site sucks as well. It's a bad impression on people.

i always thought that http://www.beaufortweb.co.uk/ was incredibly good at not providing good web design! look at their site. they provide free web based email, but how do you login? also, click on a few of the example sites that they have done...
visit these websites and make yourself happy forever:

Disgusting. horrible sites that make me want to puke. But i guess i can understand. I am new to web design and my pages arent that good, but i know good design when i see it (at least what i think is good design). I think they should go back to design 101.
color theory would be good. and general page layout. and do not charge $40 for ONE clipart image. fuck the clip art. and goddamn broken links on a webdesigners own webpage. that at least "fills me with confidence of their superior administration skills in maintaining my site". fu@k that. rant over.   :mad:    
ecsyle one....

It's a downloads website. I'm not biased against Windows, I just don't use it because it is an inferior product when compared to alternatives. By offering downloads for Windows I'm not supporting it and I'm not against it either.

I do plan on mirroring distros in the future, when I buy my new server (less than 1 month)

I also plan to offer Palm OS but not PocketPC downloads. Cuz when it comes to that, PPC SUCKS SO FUCKING BAD, I HAVE TO BE BIASED AGAINST IT.

There is a lot of empty space when i scroll down. I would also adjust the tables to scale so you dont have to scroll left or right. Its no problem on my machine, I have a high screen resolution. But for somebody running 800x600 or 1024x768 it might be hard to see the whole page. Other than that, i like it. its simple, to the point. But i am not the one to judge other peoples web pages (except of course nvwebdesign.com). this is my second web page . I guess before i start ranting about other peoples design (nvwebdesign) I should see where I stand as a designer. I could use the feedback. The bosses love the design, but as the artist, I hate it. So, feel free to bitch and complain about mine as well.

Yours is pretty nice!

The empty space is for when I start putting stuff there    

Site site fits in any browser at full screen (or maximized on a Mac...sightly less room) at 1024x768. Only slight scrolling is needed on 800x600 (Which most gamers don't even use).
