Hi i have been making a website which has links to many classic video's images about old day astra/bsb/sky satellite called sat gold you can relieve the sky tv logo's watch the german channel openings and a lot more...

Yeah it is a bit of mess. The homepage background image needs changing as the text is currently barely readable. Then there's varying pictures sizes, sentences jumping lines... in short it needs a good sort out.
I suggest you simplify it (cut-down on sections), upload your own pictures (don't link to Google Images), don't use loud colours as backgrounds (especially if they clash with the text colour) and keep image sizes the same where possible.
Hi .ok thanks for the advice,Im no expert when it comes to web designing buti'll take the advice on board and see what i can do.Can anyone suggest a better background layout?
Instead of having the sections down the side, have them along the top for clarity.
Stay clear of black backgrounds as most colours clash really badly with them. Stick to light shades of colours.
(If possible) keep all adverts in one area.
IMO your main problem is clarity. Make sure backgrounds don't clash with the text and keep picture sizes the same (as mentioned in my previous post). You have a potentially interesting site there so make sure you keeep working at it
Now i have changed a few bits on my site to your advice so take a look .The background colors have changed and the links are at the top of site and not on the side.Ihave added some images instead of linking to search engines on my channels page .
Hi been a while since i updated about my site and i can say the gifs are gone.It's better site more vids more info all about early satellite tv.
