Check out my site.. http://www.inonesearch.com/Searcish

I created this little search engine in about an hour... this search engine uses open directory data (legal).

I think myself, the coolest part is the flash graphic.

I think your site is pretty attractive (so far) and could have great potential, but...

I'd recommend putting all the different categories on different pages to cut down the loading time on the front page.

And a a:hover CSS style tag wouldn't hurt make it a little more attractive

It looks to plain and you have too much stuff on that page.

I agree, it takes too long for it to load up on a 56k dialup.

You need to make it fit on a 800x600 resolution. It scrolls horizontally at this resolution. You really don't need all that width... Frontpage Express 2.0... Hmm, no wonder it only took an hour. But nice Flash thingy!

125kb is WAY too big for most users.

yeah, maybe i should shorten it

the reason why i put the categoies on one page is to get a better listing on other search engines.

I think I posted a IE and Netscape resizer tool that can be used to auto shrink your web browser to different resolutions...I definately recommend this to test out your site...

[the post was in html help I believe]

Good luck
