Ok using the wonderful SR servers and CGI/SSI etc I have built an Xbox dedicated site.

We are planning to work closely with SR so you can interchange to read reviews and buy games etc.

I've ordered a domain name (waiting for it to go through). So i just want to know what you think.

Its optimised for 1024x768x32 and higher.

Just noticed you've disabled the right click function, well you can get passed that because you've added an alert, so if you hold down the right click and press enter, then let go of the mouse the option to view the source pops up, you could always go: view > source but i'm guessing your trying to keep poachers from your piccies? well it works the same way, don't know if that bothers you, but there are JS scripts that disable the right click without an alert, they're more useful :)

Finally got the forum working so news is back up.

I've also address one of your suggestions......

Making the first page smaller, now news that is longer then a certain length is automatically put into a new page, and a read more link will appear.

Thought so, I didn't look at your code but I could tell that was what you are doing. I'm positive there is a way to keep that style exactly like it is, but make the, check out http://uk.playstation.com/home/home01_generic.jhtml?locale=en_GB, for the kind of thing I'm thinking about... I'm sure with clever Javascript and CSS you can get a whole table cell to be a link... I'm just not sure exactly how.

Maybe a rollover would be easier!!!
