Guys I need your reviews and suggestions for my new site:

Fair Web Directory

I have some ideas that I try to implement. So, tell me if you like the new ideas or not (examples: listing position randomization - new and featured links).

Please tell me what you think even if it is "This is BS"

What makes your site so different from any other web directory out there?

1- No images at all (faster)
2- Random position for each site everyday
3- 'Random' and 'New' links beside the category name

Well, I see it doesn't have in/out system. I can handle it if you want...

Rezo

I like the fact that you've not used any images but it does end up looking like its missing a touch of gloss, just those little extra things that make a site 'special' (unfortunately its really hard to wuantify those things). Given that you've gone for a no-image approach I'm very surprised you've gone for a table based layout without valid html (let alone xhtml). If you're looking for fast loading, the amount of time it takes for the browser to assign a doctype and then render based on that (imperfect) doctype would be equivalent to most people loading a few images. Then you've got the extra time it takes to render a table layout compared to a css layout, so really, while its admirable going for an image-less fast loading design, your kinda shooting yourself in the foot.

Another comment I would have in terms of usability, it would be usefull to list the number of sites in each category, I went to a number of categories and found nothing, in reality, I wouldn't have stayed around after that happened if I as just visiting the site. Oh and the screen that says the category is empty doesn't really look too hot. You've also got some categories highlighted in red, without any indication of what this means. Does red mean danger?

Oh and in the heading, you've got words with links. The last one says SEO Friendly but only the SEO bit is a link, which ust leaves the word 'friendly' just kinda hanging there.

sjthomas - Thanks alot for your comments They are helpful and I will work accroding to them.
Thanks

rezo - it is no big deal! just some ideas that i want to apply, as you can see

I am having hard time with css trying to form the same appearance for the contents! If I don't go through, I will get busy correcting the validation errors instead.

Just got PR6 today so thanks to everyone who helped
