Im not impressed by your work. 10-25 is alot, and the graphics you supply are standard photoshop filter effects.

I personally don't think guilds need websites, in fact I wouldn't join a guild that had a website because I'm not into that sort of thing. I'll be starting a guild of my own in due time, and I intend to be the only member for a while. (I just want the cape) I'm all about doin' it in good fun, not concerned about official website or forums or crap like that. If yer a dick yer a dick if yer not yer not.

Cheers.

Octavius you may want to do a bit more to your site before you advertise, really isn't a whole lot there and for $10-$25 you may want to show a more completed site for people to look at then something half finished. Just something I noticed is all. I think its a nice idea to offer the free sites and all though.

dont go to any other hosting site except for...
galaxis
they have the cheapest hosting and you probably only need 10 mb to host a guild site.

For dutch users, www.pcextreme.nl would be a good choice. I've been a costumer there for a year now and so far I dont have any complaints what-so-ever.

Hm.. that was uncalled for, guild leaders make official websites and forum and crap to give there members updates on whats going on or have a certain discussion about a topic, so if you don't wanna know whats going on with the updates or shit, then thats your problem, and you might be a bit behind on whats going to happen.

If you don't have a own domain or don't want to purchase one, just register at www.bravenet.com and use the URL Redirection from there by adding the large link your guild would get through guildportal and you are ready.

Very Functional hosting with site, forums, chat and lots more!

seems how you dont like the other one try this one. Its a lil bit more creative. The first one I did was done in like 5 min. This one took a lil more time. And if I do it for somone els I take as long as I feel needed to make it look right. And you say 10-25 is a bit much. Then you can go get a better template from Clantemplates.com but again there will be alot of people with that same webpage I offer custom webpage only you have it. And if it takes me 2 hr to get the images and stuff and put it together that is 5hr job. Below min. wage. but all the same that is up to the user.Some clans/guilds in the gaming world dont know photoshop or HTML so I offer them customs for cheaper then big places do. most charge for custom IMG templates about 25-30 with Flash 50+. So its all up to you.

This isn't all that different from the first one, sure, it looks better, but when you really look at it, its still the same Photoshop filters. Bavel, Out.Glow, In.Glow, Drop Shadow and a really bad stroke on the buttons. Give me your stocks and brushes and ill redo the same thing in less than 10 minutes. And the saddest part is, people actually fall for this stuff. So, All in all, I wouldn't recommend selling(Free maybe) these until you get better and a little more original.

Oh, and if you want people to take you professionally, you might want to correct the numerous spelling mistakes in your first post.

Hehe, nice and simple, though more images would be better. Here's a little something I'm working on (don't mind the name and had to put into lower quality because of hosting problems) :

Hear, hear! If anyone needs proofreading/editing services for any sites or ventures they operate, let me know.

I currently develop technical course material for a Fortune 500 company and I am quite the grammar Nazi. Additionally, I am VERY fluent in English and can spot typos at lightning speed!

I just started playing GW Sunday night, and I must say that I like it quite a lot. I really like the mix of MMORPG and solo adventuring.

Trying to learn all I can....

Hey Octavius. You e-mailed me saying you'd make the site, and you never contacted me again.

Wow, Anariel that is a very eye catching site...wish I had that skill, I have not had any schooling on website creating, I have Frontpage and dreamweaver with Fireworks...and probably could not even come close to what you have going there. Nice job! I did the graphics on our site, and the hubby designed it, using Frontpage since either one of us are web guru's.
www.guidedbyvoices.net.
I have been trying to figure out what do to with the front page, all the gif's are annoying, but in the begining we didnt have alot to say..lol We wanted something original and not PhPnuke like alot of sites....do you have any sites for tutorials??

Your site is not bad at all! As far as graphics are concerned, you might want to look into getting a trial version of Photoshop to play around with it. If not, then maybe consider some other kind of arrangement for all your graphics that aren't animated. Animations are nice but you really only need one always moving graphic per page.

I started making websites when I was about 12 years old which was almost a decade ago... so I guess like everything else experience is what makes you better. I don't have any tutorials or even a portfolio right now (but I need to put together a portfolio very soon). My approach to most websites is to make it simple, and have a "theme" to it that is unique but stable throughout the site. That's about all the advice I really have. ^^

Yeah, but it will do for how temporary it is.

BTW, your arenanet logo is off center to the chains in your design. Not sure if that was intended but was bugging me

i usually use vim as i dont open ftp to my server. i use ssh and vim. keeps the server more secure. my site isnt awesome, but i am learning php, css, html etc. so theyre definitely getting better from when i first started with lists of links centered down the page. now i have learned how to use php to include redundant data, create forms... css to place navigation bars, etc.

as for photoshop, i have to add my own suggestion as i prefer free oss (open source software) to programs that charge money. i use the gimp for my graphics manipulations. the one that comes with linux is awesome and they ported it to windows. just search google for "the gimp" and if youre confused, maybe add the words "graphics and image manipulation program".

happy warring
