Please have a look, and leave a comment for things to do better, or things that are already better 

Thanks!!

It looks nice, very good job... maybe the font choosen for your logo is not the best selection, a font similar to "Impact" font should fit better with the design.

Good luck with the site, keep it up!

Yeah the whole logo could probably look a lot better if I had any sense of graphic design..
I changed it a little bit:

old:


new:


I dunno.. graphics isn't my forte..

I made a little variation to your logo, if you like it feel free to use it



Good Luck

That's awesome!!

I may not have a sense of graphics, but I know what I like! 

It's just that I love my old atari joystick.. Do you think I could trouble you to making the same thing, but with my joystick instead of the logitech one?

Here it is:


And one correction: it's "Online Games Depot" and not "Online Game Depot" - that's it.. I'll stop being a pain in the ass..

Let me know if it's too much work..

Thanks a bunch!

Neat and tidy, I just cant resist to say that I like the new games featuring at the top. Not forgetting the rounded corners of each part. One question, how do you make these rounded corners?

[DaftFox]

Thanks 

There are two kinds of round corners:
a gamebox is just a complete background image:


The round corners in the bigger boxes (anything other than a gamebox) are images that are put in place by using multiple HTML tables.
Such an image would be:

or:


The borders are just that - CSS borders of the same color as the images.. Took me forever to make it work in both IE and FireFox..

Well see... i'm not bad with graphics, but i suck with that css stuff 

Well done m8

well I stink at graphics, but getting pretty good with CSS and PHP (I'm a software engineer in profession, and I just fell in love with PHP)

do I smell a cooperation? 

let me know if you have any projects for me - I'm unemployed until the end of August anyway, and intend on keeping this up as a hobby once I start working..

maybe we can work on something together..

I know nothing on web programming. Seems that it is a lot of work to make those rounded corners. But it surely worthy.

Sure why not... as little portofolio , this is my last release, a new fresh template for the free hosting i'm co-running (shhh... only my Staff Team knows it )

Cubchai: it's not that much work once you know what you're doing.. the problem is knowing what you're doing then 

MULITRI: you wanna work on something together? sounds cools to me.. I'll send you my email via a PM and we can talk..
