    Hi all!
    I've been building a new website with a guide to the Black Isle RPG Icewind Dale. At the moment the site is online with walkthroughs for the Heart of Winter & Trials of the Luremaster expansions, but in time I would like to expand it to include all of IWD 1 & 2, Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 and Planescape Torment.

    Anyway, the site has only just been placed online, so I'd appreciate if people here could offer a critique of the site design and content.

    The site is online at:

    Happy Gaming!

    Beautiful website, very well laid out. Fix the main game walkthrough link on your homepage, though - it doesn't go anywhere. Other than that, great resource. :)

    Nice site in progress.
    For the HoW walkthrough I recommend adding that you need charisma to be able to convince Ambere Dunn to go home.
    I'd also make clear that Tiernon will only make one weapon of your choice, "a number of items" can be misleading.
    You could also add that you can make Tiernon upgrade the mirror if you talk to him with a smart enough character after visiting the seer.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the comments posted so far, the response has been overwhelmingly positive, so I will definitely be adding much more content to the site. I will be making the changes suggested by kmonster to the main walkthrough, and in response to "Death Rabbit", the main walkthrough will be online in a few weeks.

    In that case, I'd add a "Main-Story Walkthrough Coming Soon" to the homepage until then to avoid confusion, lest people think it really is a broken link.

    Hi again all,
    Just to quickly respond to Death Rabbit's last post - the main walkthrough is now online except for the four towers of the severed hand which should be done within a day or two.

    The walkthrough begins here:
