Nice damn song on the website.

Not.

A) It's illegal to have it up.

B) It's bad webdesign.

C) Its annoying.

It has one. Look at the bottom of each page.

But I would suggest not playing the music unless the viewer WANTS to, not making them have to turn it off.

Might I suggest that next time you don’t ask for feedback unless that is really what you want to hear? I am sure it will save everyone a lot of time. ;)

With that said, they could have been more tactful with their comments…. But you didn’t ask for tact, you asked for what they thought.

Someone of your age is "just a kid" Born in 1988, dosn't put too many years behind your belt.

As for your website. I am very impressed with it. I am not fond of the music either. But hey, maybe thats my age talking. Anyone who is willing to put in the time it takes to create a webpage gets my kudos.

But one word of warning. If you ask for peoples opinions.....be prepared for just that. I wouldn't lash out at folks for doing what you asked of them.

Comments on your website:

First of all, don't listen to the jerks above. People who can only insult don't have anything REAL to say.

Okay, anyways, here are the things I like:

Your tournament page. I like that it isn't "Oh man, we kicked everyone's arse, blah blah blah." You point out both your strengths and weaknesses.

I like the action pictures, although the site loads slowly.

Things are not so hot:

Personally, the team pictures where you guys are posing seem a bit cliche. Everyone has done that - try something new....like, for example, just smiling at the camera! It gets so annoying when people pretend to be super-tough. Just take a nice pic of you guys with your banner.

The web design is lacking - the main graphic at the top of the page is overbearing and sloppy - narrow it down a bit. I'm sure that my brother wouldn't mind coming up with a team logo for you.

Well, as a team manager with a website, I understand how hard it is. Keep up the good work and try to steer clear of acting "tough," and your site will be top-notch!

Again, don't listen to the jerks who don't have anything to REALLY say.

Site is so mis-matched and has links and words everywhere. You need to make it easier on the eyes. First off, you have those 2 big pics on the front page, they need to be moved to the side, and the news section needs to be 1 uniformed section.

Otherwise, change the backround to a lighter color, and have smoother banners not all edgy and sharp like.

Actually by publishing something you are automatically covered by US Copyright Laws. You do NOT have to actually FILE for a Copyright to be protected by copyright laws, nor to post a Copyright notice. That is not illegal at all, and in fact is VERY legal.

And there are also things called Artistic Copyrights that don’t need to be filed to be valid either.

So I guess what I am saying is that whether they posted a copyright on their site or not, it is covered by US Copyright laws with as much validity as things that are actually filed for (it is just that filed copyrights are easier to prove in court), and that the notice is valid whether something is filed for or not. Nothing illegal has happened by posting a copyright notice.

and what tournaments are theese. What place did you get... you need alot of work in what you cna and cannot do (that WDP and AGD pic is illegal so is that crappy music.)

You are so full of missinformation it's scary.

1) The material you write and the pictures you take and publish on your webpage ARE indeed copyrighted. You own them.

2) The pictures are not illegal to use, although stating that they are owned by their respective companies somewhere on the page would be beneficial.

Nice site over all. I don't mind the background color too much. I can read it just fine. I don't mind the songs, not sure if you can legally use them though. And good job giving props to mags on your "Thank you" page, or whatever you called it.
Only thing I would change is the top banner. It's too big. I'd see if I could make both thinner (top to bottom) and a little bit longer, to make up for making it thinner. Then see if you could put the pics underneath the "Team Epic" part. Then get rid of the light blue stripe on the right side, that way you don't have to scroll left to right when veiwed in whatever resolution you recommended.

Sorry for going off topic...but what is wrong with using an angel, they are good markers in my book, and they seem to have chosen them over a lot of other markers seeing that their team has a variety of markers. Each to their own I suppose.

first off, that kid on the left in the Stuntaz picture looks really familiar.....I realize that has nothing to do with the webpage

Do any of you have Photoshop? do you know any nonhipster kids that like graphic art? if the answer to any of these questions was yes...

try blending the top two banners into one, i think youll like it even more, and then you can have it flow into the rest of the page and not appear to be a big old block

sadly i need to agree with everyone else on the music, illegal or not, I can't hear my deftones with your music running


now that i think about it it looks like somebody used photoshop to make the banner on the left...

thanx for all ur input guys as for the music i myself dont like it but my say for that doesnt mean n e thing
