I want people to come to my site and help me input, expand and criticize it!
Its all about the questions that people have always wanted to ask but thought it too silly! Hopefully people will answer if I cant!

Hi dancindaz73,
Well, I thought 'this looks like an innneresting site, with potential', but on inspection it doesn't do anything!!
How do I pose a question? How do I answer a question? How do I offer an opinion? And my pet hate..... external links that open in the same browser window. 
This is what I would term a wireframe, i.e. an idea for a site, but not an actual functioning site, as yet. It is, therefore, difficult to offer specific advice. Maybe I was expecting the obvious (and maybe it's an outmoded design thought) but I would have expected the white lozenges/buttons to have a roll-over alternative image.
I know how helpful it can be to get feedback on a project as you build it, but I would reccomend getting the site up & running (not necessarily live) then invite comment when there's a bit more to comment on. I can see what your aiming at and will be innerested in taking another butchers when it's nearer completion. 
TFC
Nothing is a problem for me...

Hi dancindaz73,
As I said I can see what you're trying to do, but without realtime accessibility you may find some users don't return. Having to email questions, answers, opinions, etc.. isn't particularly interactive. Presumably one would have to wait until the webmaster (i.e. you) has updated the relevant page(s), before one could a) see a submission and, b) have others respond to it.
For a basic HTML driven site I think you're asking a bit more than it can provide with simple programming. There are of course various script based chat, forum, guestbook facilities, etc. which afford some user-interactivity.
Unfortunately, the web using public have become increasingly sophisticated in what they expect from a given site, which can prove frustrating for the novice web builder with big ideas and no capital to outlay on pro level packages, etc. to enable them to produce their visions.
I do think there's a lot to be said for a forum based site where users can post/receive feedback almost instanly (like this place). However, setting up and running a forum like this one can take time and some experience (not to mention a hosting server that can run the necessary PHP/PERL/CGI/SSI requirements - dependent upon which way you go regards programming, etc).
Having said all that, there are a handful of forum packages available free on the net and, with a little patience, can be implemented and maintained by anyone. Then the trick is to integrate that into your web site.
Bottom line: you either build a site to your abilities or have someone else (who can) build the site you want. As your abilities and experience expand you can upgrade your site accordingly. Basically, we all have to learn to walk before we can run - no matter how frustrating that is (and believe me, I know about how frustrating web building can be, I get frustrated virtually every day  ).
BTW: this is merely my opinion and not in any way fixed in stone. 
Once again, good luck and I look forward to seeing you succeed.

I just went to visit the site and was amazed at the number of pop ups that were blocked (3 straight away and countless more on every page) and the number of cookies blocked (37 on first page alone).
I'm sorry but I didn't look too much further as I got fed up with hearing all the pop ups being blocked.

O.K. Go to your website's New Improved look and try to click on the links. Do they work? I thought not!! Once again I have to comment, your site is a vacuum. Fill it up a bit if you want a hit.
