My suggestion is....

and take this however you wish, but Design your website on paper First before making a digital version.

The colours on the site are very dark, need more confortable colours to see.
 
My ISP sure didn't like it... they disconnected me right after loading your site.

Okay, I don't want to be rude, but – you really, really need to learn about design before you embark on what is essentially a design medium. Especially color theory and UI (user interface) design. The colors clash, badly – bright blue works well as a highlight color for black, not a base color. Yellow simply doesn't work with bright blue (I can't read it). White looks fine on a black base, but not blue. The orange seems confused.

The non-scrolling background just screams, "I just learned how to do this!". The navigation needs to be wrangled with a rope – there is a navigation bar to the top left, a navigation bar to the top right, the sidebar links, and a footer navigation bar. Condense it. Having a sidebar so much larger than the main content column is a big no-no, and would be blasphemy if you were in the print business.

Headers need to be offset from other text through a consistent method, such as larger type or a different color or being off-set... the headers for the main column are just off-set, which is very difficult to pick up. The headers in the sidebar use a green that came out of left field. Comic Sans is dead (severe language warning). And dark designs are, in general, very 1997... bright designs with plentiful whitespace and pastel hues are in. Interestingly, so are serif fonts, which has surprised me.

Also, I got handed a file by the name of 29454_1_1_04.asf... having proprietary content that causes non-proprietary browsers to have to download the content and pass it on to a handler is bad (except for PDFs).
 
thats about the only metallica background I found that would work, but any way does anyone hat the html tags to play multiple mp3 URLs on one page? that would help out a lot. I used google and all I found was .midi files
 
Get stuffed with the "Come again" box. Or at least give us the option of a "No thanks" button.

As far as I know, a webpage cannot play an MP3. It can only play a midi. But don't force someone to listen to your music. It's a bad idea.
 
I saw people with dropdown menus with lots of music, but thanks for correcting me the final extensions for the urls are .asf and I will have a stop and a start button on it. I'm not forcing them, but most the people who actually view the site regurally listen to that type of music.

oh,yeah. Stop giving me crap. just don't go To the site. I mean, you're not funny.

But you can't have a start and stop button on it. MP3's and asf files have to be played in media player or winamp or some other external player. People would have to download them and then play them themselves.

Don't pick on me. You've had worse comments than mine in this very thread.

But anyway, you said
