Hey There,
Just some advice.. don't trust people.. they need to have a professional site.. not some nooby 10 year old thinking they know about hosting..

www.fibre-host.com (This-Host.com + Fibre-Host.com Combined)

Great service nice prices.. if you are willing to pay in paypal. This is the best support I have ever seen for a company.

TBH good hosts are not going to accept Habbo. Most people who do that shut down very fast and you are left sitting in the dust.. Im sorry but thats the truth.. they are 10-11-12 year olds thinking they can run a company and installing cast-control on their server.. which is NOT professional

Don't put other people down on the forum.. He is just trying to make some money.. or Furni. But he should at least come through for his customers. Either a refund or get a server.

I agree mate. No host that has great uptime for shoutcasts will accept habbo. Your best bet it comparing prices on the net to find the cheapest and who has best uptime.

Plus if you pay by cash most sites do 15 days money back. If you pay by habbo you are lucky to have it for 5 days with out going down.

Also if they have a reseller or they buy hosting and run cast-control on it.. that usually violates their hosts TOS. If you are on shared hosting that uses up THEIR bandwith.. not yours!

If you can't buy with paypal then there is no reason to own a fansite.. your not going to get much off Habbo.. Hosting, Shoutcast, Layouts.. :p

I know you are tryin to offer me advice and i appreciate tht but please if u want to offer me advice don't offer me any that will wreck what i really want to do or put me or my intentions in doubt!

Your layout images are .bmp... :\

Your marquee isn't centered and it isnt coded right i dont think??

Sorry for the put downs but those are just tips:

Use: GIF, PNG

Code in sections that way you can expand things

Center your marquee in that box ;)

Oh well.. it makes the quality of the images awful.. BMP was windows 3.1 days..
Yamba
