Yarp, that's due to me moving the whole website over to wordpress. I've been deleating pages/files I don't need as i go:)

Not bad, in fact I quite like it, but it all seems a bit (not sure how to put this) Spiky, try to round of the corners of the nav buttons and the main content area. That would help blend in with the clouds,grass and earth thing you've got going on. Also you have issues with the footer. I've attached a screen grab for you. Also , are you using free web hosting? I personally wouldnt for a site like this which might have a lot of traffic. for under a fiver a month you can get decent hosting and usually a domain name thrown in.

Thanks:) I shall have a go with rounding some bits of and see what it looks like.

Yes, we got an average of 3-4,000 hits per a month. It's due to the fact that this is a 'charity' website, however, come January we should have decent hosting, and a 'real' domain.

It looks good, I like the design, there are a couple of errors, like the PHP ones at the bottom of the page that was said above. And the slogan 'Website for young people by young people' I think you should remove the 'website' so it is just 'For young people by young people, because, well, it's pretty obvious its a website, and I think it sounds better But that's my opinion.
Also, the information text I think is waay to big, you should put it at about 18px or something.

You defiantly need to look at your font sizes. They are rather big and the line height is a bit much too.

I found the wordpress theme of your site and its a free download.

Since you are still learning continue converting your site into a Wordpress theme and use the ready-built one as a reference for when you get stuck

A roll over state would be good on the menu items.

IGNORE that... Works fine now.
