Big problem with the image at 319 kbytes on the front page.

I tried to email you the address for a much smaller file size. If you didn't get it, there's a copy at http://www.centennialcra.com/lauren2.jpg

help yourself:)

Hey,
It looks pretty good.

- I love the logo. Looks very good.

- Frames aren't the best thing to use. It makes it a lot easier and stuff they just aren't very good.

- I think you need to add some color. It looks very plain in my opinion.

- Put the logo at the top of every page instead of just the index.

- If you are gonna have a counter you shoulda put the date you started it at something like : "--- People have been here since June 8 2000 (or whatever date)"

- Put mouseovers on the links. I think it looks better that way. Change the link color from just the default blue.

- Back to the color. Pick a color scheme...something that looks nice and fits your topic and make it consistant through every page.

Other than that it looks good. If you need any help just e-mail me at [email protected]

Arrgh!!! AUtomatic sound file!! I hate these. I'm always listening to other music on my compter, so it's really annoying when some tinny midi starts playing by itself. I have to either pause winamp or leave your page. Guess which one I'd be more likely to choose?

The logo looks nice. Now you need to do something more interesting with the navbar. Maybe use a horizontal style instead of the left side thing, since you don't have too many sections.

Don't link to pages that don't have anything on them but an "under construction" sign - just take out the link until you get that page ready. On the "Family" page you should have pictures of those family members just in the table there (and who they are - mother, father, sister, dog etc.), and link to a description (maybe written in her own words)

Urgh! MIDI = Cheesey.

I seriously want to kill the person whom invented MIDI's, they are the most -horrible- space wasters. [I -refuse- to call it audio.]

Yes, I agree. You should get rid of the midi as soon as you can. I usually have Mp3's playing when I surf and it disrupts my song. It also makes the page take longer to load.
