The only text based game I've ever enjoyed.

I guess you're going to create something similar to "ikariam" game.

Must admit, the website looks awful, menu is jiggly and not fixed, the little pictures down there and the sign up/in is just horrific.

I'd suggest to look at other designs and try to come up with a better one.
