Initially i thought that too, however when i actually had to look for stuff, i found it immensely handy that the links were so comprehensive, i found exactly what i was looking for in a flash.
Also the menu at the top of the page above and below the banners is a little crammped. Perhaps SR shops, Clips, Telesales and news could be put on the side menu to ease up the space.
The images could have a word under -
(gif of consoles and a pc) - Gaming
etc etc..
That would look cool and be more modern, well. you could try it.
:| .. if not I will and you can see it :-D
You have alot of links to choose from as you can see on the left,
This helps as the thing you are looking for is useally on there...
But however when it says site map :) It is basically the site map :D
Look at this forum I took part of it a little while ago but it's layout was like way too confusing!! I'll just stayed with one forum.
But only because i've not been here for a while.
For the page to fit perfectly, you need to have a really small web font, or an extremely small PC monitor; I think having slightly larger writing would help... I know you can change it, but the web-page goes all out of sync.
I also think it'd be a better idea if you split the web-site. Because PC is so vast and has quite a few sub-areas... "PC Parts" "PC Peripherals" etc, it might be worth splitting the web-site like we did with the FOG Forum, thus freeing up more room for A) Pictures, which there isn't enough of. And B) A bigger font, which would help my eyes... especially after a 3-hour session on TimeSplitters 2.
You could have http://PC.SRDN.COM - and - http://GAMES.SRDN.COM.
Just an idea.
The main problem is the small writing for members with large monitors, and the fact that most people will just see all the white writing down the side and shudder at the thought of filtering through it to find their desired link.

Bingo! I totally agree :)
