Good start but why use Java on that site? All of it could be done with a CSS page. Also you broke a web designer rule by using a gif image...they are so 1990's. Basically your website looks like it comes from the early 90's. I think your problem lies in that choice of colors and layout.

vskid - Did that, thanks!

Rekarp - Oh well, page might look from from the '90's but that is still 30 years younger than I am!

Using SohoLaunch, there look like a lot of templates, however I wanted one which I could have my logo banner on the top and headings on the side. The choices I had to play with in regards to suitable templates were surprisingly small, this was the best one (unless you know better ones).

As to Java, or whatever; I used their software on-line - works, easy to use. Don't know much about all this stuff, and I don't know HTML so used a pre-made template: however it allowed me to upload masses of files and play about with the text and get up an acceptable site. The forum is using the latest version of PHPbb; and I don't have any advertising or suchlike anywhere on the site. Unlimited bandwidth and webspace for only £5 a month!

Cool. I'd have to agree with Rekarp though.. very very 90's esque :P You should change up the color scheme. I'll try and make you a different logo to (just for the hell of it :P )

Edit: Here ya go. If you want color, just tell me

Nice logo, but the text blends in like those anti-bot verification things.

That doesn't exist, and there are only two types, portablizer, and extraordinary portablizer. Although #1 qualified him for extraordinary.

Nice. Just nice.

Anyways, I'd like to see how the gamecube+ section goes.

EDIT: Also, I think I need you to quit being so awesome. And If you could only see the promising-ness of the portable Im working on now.
