That site is visually very attractive and seems to fuction quite well, however, (and you saw this coming, didn't you?), smile.gif, there are a couple of things you might consider changing.

1. validate your code, especially if you are handing it over to a customer. It will show a level of professionalism for your work, and probably work better in multiple Browsers.

Doctype Declarations are essential for the Web, and they will become more and more critical as the Web develops new services and as the Specifications change.

2. There seems to be too much stuff "below the fold". I must scroll down on each page to see the content I would be looking for. Basically, shorten the header stuff and display the changing content for the page the client is looking at.

3. Centre the page? My laptop has a wide screen display format, and the page is all crowded over to the left hand side. Wide screens are becoming more popular all the time.

As I said at the start, visually this is a very attractive and well done site.

Also get some CSS Styles going as Times New Roman on a website really looks naff.
On the bottom of the page the content box seems to drag on a bit. Im not sure if that is your intention but i would change it. You also may want to put a copyright line on the site.
The Black bars which say Main Content, Links etc are lso a bit big you may want to reduce the size of them so they look a bit better.

I like the layout and the site design.

But as jlhaslip has said, please reduce the header content, I meant the size. Also don't make the user to scroll more in the home page, because it is the first page that creates an impression about your site to the visitor.

Good work. Keep it going.

Thanks guys.

I was planning to do most of what was mentioned, especially getting the code to validate. I put this together relatively quickly and just needed it up.

I will do abit of editting and post back when the changes have been made for viewing.

Thanks again.

Hi Autumn
look and feel of your website is very neat and clean and colour combination is also good. I like the analogue clock the most. Is it in java script?

regards

Good Work.Kudos!!!

Few Suggestions though

1.Reduce the header height,main content image etc.(i know its already mentioned but it is certainly needed)
2.Colors, i felt you can use better ones .

All the best!
