Kimono's Tips to a Great Website!
1.Don't use to many pictures. It could get ugly. Beleive me. In the early days of many of my sites, I overdid the pictures (having been excited about finally learning the code) and it looked terrible.
2.Make sure people can read whats written. Its really annoying to have to strain your eyes to read something. As if staring at a computer isn't already bad enough!
3.Don't use a flashy background. The background should be nice, but, not flashy. Like, don't use a background that changes colors, or an all rainbow one, unless the rainbow only has pastel colors. Use soothing backgrounds, and when using a wallpaper make sure you'll be able to always read the text no matter where you place it.
4.No broken links. Broken links are sooooo annoying! They drive me nuts! So, check all your links, and just save those "Coming Soon" pages. Don't open them to the public till they're done!
5.No blasting loud music. Lets face it: some music just wasn't meant to be on a webpage. Choose your music wisely. It should be quiet and slow, not fast and loud. I usually find myself not returning to pages with loud music playing.
