I'm not feeling wordy, so here it is: A few explanations: Menu items and Related Links use a system of colour codes (in the case of Articles, it is the icon next to it, on the menu it's the background). Green represents 'Standard' information, such as that an average Imperial citizen would know about their planet (or would be able to find out given time and resources). Yellow/Orange represents restricted information - this information exists in the 40k universe, but is hard to get. For example, it could be an inquisition secret file, or forbidden knowledge held by the Eldar. Red represents 'metagame' knowledge and information. Related to Anargo, but not within the confines of the universe. For example, the in-game rules for using a particular regiment, or the ASP Forums. The graphics panel at the top has several small buttons next to a large image. The large image will be that of the particular system or object. The three smaller images (from top to bottom) represent A: a snapshot frm another perspective (e.g. a city), B: the Hex Map of the planet, and C: a link to the Image Bank, which does a search based on whatever is being looked at. The menu is subject to change, I only added the items as examples (some would need moving around anyway). So, thoughts? I shall post this in the Website forum as well.

Well, since this is the artwork forum, I shall just be commenting on the appearance of the set-up, rather than the structure.
First of all, I'd just like to say that I'm very impressed. Very professional. Unfortunately, I don't quite agree with the choice of colours. For some reason, the silver does not agree with me. I think it looks a bit 'flashy'. I do realise, however, that this might change when you look at a full window in 1024 x 768 resolution, which should give more green and less silver, and thus make the general appearance less flashy.
Also, I'm afraid I like the font you used on the crest-scroll more than the font you used on the top of that sample page ("Anargo-Sctor.net, Home of the Anargo Sector Project"). I'd prefer a more gothic and dark text on the top, rather than a flashy high-tech one.
But, despite all my petty criticism, I must again point out that I am very pleased. Keep up the good work! ;D

Very very nice. My only complaint is that the menu and title blocks look a bit chunky and gaudy. If I were you I'd slim down the regalia to avoid impinging on the eye so much. Paler tones and slimmer objects are the way to go.

And Sojourner's comments mirror my own in the Web Page board in that regard.
