Hi. I'm a newbie and I as well as saying hello to everyone I thought I'd also tell you of my site I made about my 14 week trip to the Lanna Muay Thai Boxing camp last year.

No, this isn't spam as I think that it is something that could be relevant to a lot of people here, some of you may have even been there yourself.

Anyway, this all looks like a good forum and so I look forward to being part of it. Cheers...

Looked over your site. Got alot of cool pictures. I know the site is still in progress, but because of the pictures, the first page took awhile to loaded, even with a t3 connection. And the colors, what's up with with the blue and pink and yellow. You got alittle carried away. But the scrolling action was the worst part. It made me dizzy. And after a while I said, "What the h*ll?", and all I did was scrolled the page. I felt like I just had a couple a beers, which is bad, but without the nagging hang-over, which is good.
Did a great job of bringing the experience home. Tone done the colors, I would suggest concrete gray, and anchor the background, and your site will be killer.

Hey pizzaboy, thanks for the critical analysis but I'm not too sure as to what you mean. You said the scrolling action made you dizzy and that I should anchor my background. Well I already have. On every single page.

And the colours are just to make the text look a bit more interesting.

Ahh well, still glad you liked it. Peace

Your background is the two Thai fighter in blue, and the foreground is your actual page, with the text and pictures. That's how I saw your web page. When I scrolled, the background stayed in one place, while the text scrolled. Cool effect, but after a while, that made me dizzy. Maybe its just me, bro, but thats how I felt. Oh, well.
