Its a decent fan site. I would remove the height style on the ex class so that you can scroll the entire page, instead of both the page and the content inside that class (the stuff with the red background).

Also I'd make the width on the left hand side links slightly bigger so that "Dominions 3" doesn't wrap. Or use a non breaking space between the s and 3.

Or center the '3'.

Thanks for the feedback, I will try that out.

How do you do non-breaking spaces? You see, this is the first time I'm actually doing a site of this scale, so many things are new to me...

Edit: Also, you're free to speak if you have any suggestions or such for the site.

non-breaking space is an ascii character. Number 255 for most programming. There is a special html character for it Im sure but I dont remember which one. One of those &#xxx things. Im thinking... 160?

I shall proceed to poke at the files.

Hopefully I have something to mail to you soon...

Non-breaking space in html is:  

Centering the 3 (probably the entire div) is another good idea.

Or setting the table a fixed width in the CSS files. Which I did.

EDIT: This solved that problem for me, not sure if it is an universal fix.

I still see the 3 on its own line, but then, the latest version might not yet be uploaded.

I like how you've sprinkled parts of the screenshots into the interview; it looks very nice. The pictures are a little too small for my tastes, though, units too cramped, at least in the wide ones. It's hard to make out the units. Also, clicking on the small pictures should open the full screenshots (in new window, probably).

EDIT: You might also want to try the page out in few different resolutions. Also, at least in the interview page, mousewheel only scrolls the text if I click on the gray background; if I click on any of the red parts, the whole page is scrolled up/down, or nothing moves if I can see the whole page in one screen. I'm using Opera, but that shouldn't make any difference.
