Default My battlestations website

I know it'll never compare to the actual website, but it's pretty cool. Please check out the new forums, hopefully for us interested in the game and not randon game haters. Check it out at www.freewebs.com/ryan75 its a rubbish address but hey. Also, leagues e.t.c are goig to be organised so keep checking

I noticed that too, but more sites can't possibly be a bad thing. We should try looking into a webring...

Whats the need for the hostile language? Perhaps constructive criticism?

How is my language hostile. Please, explain.

If you'd like to make your site better (and trust me, as a long time web designer, it's pretty terrible, but the content is there and the idea is good behind it), read some tutorials on design.

I recommend http://htmldog.com/.

Fine, if not your language but the tone of your post. You could have made your comment constructive. Also by the way you finish with; immediately.Just makes your comment sharp and If I were in your position, the post would have been suggesting actual improvements.

OMG it uploaded so much spy ware on my computer!!! No just kidding. The site looks pretty good however, the background is a little dizzying. But altogether a good site .

P.S. Add Hawker Hurricane to non playable list on units.

It's a good start, but being biased and all I like my site better =P But Colloseum's right, some solid site construction materials are a necessity nowadays if you intend to make your site competitive. It's a good start though. I recommend getting some outside help. My friend Nemesis did 90% of the work on BSMC, and I just helped fill things in a little.

Arrow, it's sort of cheesy how you link to BSMC in every post you make.

Hmm, I never thought about doing that, but good idea. I'll shove it in my signature next.

It would be nice if you had a photo gallery where we can put Ship model kits built on the site. I am dieing to put my USS Missouri on a gallery. If you guys want to see it then check the KMS Bismarck topic last page and last comment.
