If that link doesn't work, it's cos I'm changing the domain name the hosting is linked to, so try [URL]http://www.xytracker.com[/URL] instead.
As usual, it's not complete, and there's plenty not working (e.g. some links go to pages that I've not made yet, etc). But any general comments would be welcomed.
> Useful advice
Yeah, what you've given me is v. useful! That's the kinda stuff I'm after, plus any ideas you have on the actual tracker.
There's still plenty of design stuff to do - and it's still in dev. stages at the moment (i.e. the CSS isn't yet in an external sheet, and so on).
Oh and by the way, yes, I am having an orange phase!! [URL]http://www.knight-sites.co.uk/uybc.jpg[/URL]

Yeah, I was trying to think of something cool-looking to do on the top of a site - I always come up with something boring otherwise. I remembered seeing something like that on a site I had seen before (though until you just mentioned it, I had forgotten it was yours, lol!), and I had the X logo for it as well. I don't know if I've still got that old site actually - remember thinking it was v. cool though! Hope you don't mind me borrowing that li'l bit of the site!
I see your header/logo image is a stonking 57k png (and that's just the bit on the right) - I take it this is still temporary, as it comes out to about 10k as an optimised jpg ?
I would resize the header (which looks good) to fit an 800 width screen before fading to white.
I would re-work your navigation on the left.
For users, the order of links will be all wrong - all the interesting bits are at the bottom of the list! Perhaps you could try separating the sites information and product links from the navigation for the users visitor statistics ?
Re-working this would also allow you to change things so people don't have to scroll down so much ?
Being picky, I'm not as keen on the top left orange image as I am on your main header - why not try using something more like the main image ?
Do you want comments on the actual tracking product or just the design ?
Hope some of this helps.
Good Luck!

You can have it removed if you request it via the correct controller

Yeah, thats really annoying having your address so easily available.

Yeah, that username/password box is a relic from the table that had been down the side before - it'll go soon!
Also, regarding the address, just WHOIS any of my domains if you want it!
The only thing I'd change is to line up the login box with the menu above, and to align the 'username' and 'password' text to the left.

Ahem...

Very true. Removed. It was directly from the site mind, I haven't done any detective work.
