My turn to take some stick!

Wow, nice job with the layout on this site. Narrow page content works well here, especially with that striped band you put in the background. It has a very professional feel to it and loads seamlessly. I can only suggest that you shorten the page titles ("Contact Sixth Sense" rather than "Sixth Sense ESP - Contact | Please feel free to contact us for any questions about our services (website design, online promotion, accessibility, online shopping carts etc.) as well as any job you would consider unique. "). This site is definitely a winner!

Cool! Looks really good, I like the theme, its my fav color combo, black and orange,...
Dang! it makes me ispired to redesign...(I hope you did not use a template here...)

This looks pretty good. Has all the elements you need, nice clean design, well done overall.

I'll suggest a few minor refinements though. Firstly, the background extending from the photo on the sides is really distracting. The shadow with the diagonals is giving me this sort of warped 3-D impression which is just weird.

I like the empty space around the logo but I feel that everything could be pulled up just a little bit. Too much discord between the logo and the rest of the site. Lacks unity.

The horizontal photos are fabulous. They provide an excellent atmosphere for the site. The business stock photos have got to go though. They just look way too "corporate" and impersonal in comparison.

Good job overall

Agreed on the look, this is good. Very good!

What I'd like to add here is that your code contains lots of deprecated elements - nasty font tags! Am also not sure about the image map, you could have done something more interesting with the menu imo.

Clean up your code, invest in a DOCTYPE (they're free! ), sort out the minor improvements Megan mentioned and it'll be great!

I know what you mean about the menu...that was a very lazy moment for me, i will sort that ASAP. Can i ask what DOCTYPE i should be using as its something confuses me?!

I'm actually glad you got freaked out Megan That 3D look was exactly what i was after! Yeah the stock photos aren't great but i use stockbyte which i think is good but they cost like £60 for web quality versions and i just can't justify spending loads more

Thanks for the kind comments everyone, it will inspire to me to crack on to be more accessibile. I'll try and get that code cleaned up and make the titles more intuitive!

BTW you should fix the resolution problem, in FF at 800x600 the page doesnt readjust...

and it horizonatlly scrolls at 1024x768.

Other than that a nice website

How do you mean doesn't adjust Demonhale?

It scrolls at 1024 because of the gradient fade out, with the diagonal lines i can't just do a background image which just ends at the side of the screen so i'm not sure how i can get round that problem!

Thanks.

Your DOCTYPE much depends upon the way you're coding, this looks like HTML 4.01 Transitional to me in which case you can validate against the following (in other words put this in the first line of your HTML file):

Quote:

Then you can check your code for errors at http://validator.w3.org.

To follow the latest W3C Recommendations and coding practices you should be using XHTML 1.x (and this is another story ).

Have just noticed the fact that I get a scrollbar at 1024x768 like the others, you badly need to fix this. Think css is the answer in this case, let us know if you need further help implementing this.

I mean it should center automatically at lower resolutions, and stay that way when incresing to a higher res... More like my site as an example... or just expand it the way some more mainstream site does... Yeah ive been trying to be xhtmll too, gotto stick with html4.01 for the moment... Promote Standardization!!!

WOW blew my socks off it looks great. It looks unlike anyother webdesign site ive ever seen. Nice job.

Looks good. Nice color scheme and the images are in just the right places so they spice it up a bit.

In IE at 800 x 600 the width of the page is almost 2 times as wide as my screen allows, so I have to do a lot of scrolling. I would suggest fixing this. The main content can all fit in the screen, but not the way it's positioned.

Looks good, even with the black background, i really like it. Very GOOD!

Nice site. The page loaded quick.
9/10

Thanks for the help and comments people! I have added a text only version to the site today which i hope will benefit the visually impaired.

Cheers!

Hmmm, well more importantly am still getting that horizontal scrollbar. That looks really bad.

Still no DOCTYPE yet, and I noticed when trying to validate I get the following error:

Quote: Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 36, 106-107, 150 it contained one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as utf-8 (in other words, the bytes found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check both the content of the file and the character encoding indication.

There's a copyright symbol in your HTML :eek: get rid of it and replace with a nice
©Well, you did want stick

Hey,

I think it looked awesome. I did catch one typo -- but other than that I LOVE the dropshadow effect.

The typo was in the contact area.

shouldn't there be a comma after "us" in the contact page?

You definitely have an eye for design

I just read that Chad, i think it's how you read it, i'm not sure if you need a pause there or that. I know what you mean though..i'll get some other opinions on that!

Give me a chance Mr Bond! I will get on it tomorrow though (hopefully...)

I've seen few websites that are off-center. At first it looked weird, and I am still not so used to it but I like its originality and it doesn't take away from the function at all.

Colors look great. I think it all around works well
