Fansite Guide

[Xarea]

I have to agree. Nice attemp and everything.

But you said I don't believe image is important. Its what you provide for the community at the end of the day. Image isnt everything. Ok yes a good looking template would go very well, but people want to learn something new from your content such as Guides not from images.

Also in the content bit. You don't suggest "What sort of content" to provide which would be a good idea to do for new people who want a site.

You also adviser them to hire a coder. Well that way themselfs aren't going to learn anything from the site their "Coder" is building. You should provide some tutorial sites which could be helpful and learn from. Ok for some parts higher a coder but not all of it otherwise your not gaining the experience. And experience is a great thing to have.

As I said nice kind. But some areas of it need improving instead of stating the obvious.

I totally agree.

Tbh I think the layout is one of the CORE features of a fansite.

For example, my site Habbo-Paper.co.uk (official fansite) was getting a lot of hits and had some alright content. I then re-designed the site and gave it a nice template and it's got hundreds more hits.

Templates grab users and make them interested in the website.

Yes obviously its one of the main features and it is nice to have a good quality template. But she made out the layout was more important than content.

If you had a good quality template but with no cotent whats the point in the site?

Depends on the person.
