Please Review This Site

I'd put some space between the blue navigation and the white "content" area. There needs to be a small space between the blue and the text.

Hey Ian,

Overall, looks pretty good. Not sure I like the black BG on index page, but don't like the all white on the rest of the pages either. That's personal preference though. Whichever you like, use it on all your pages.

Simple design but effective. easy to navigate.

Another personal preference, but you might try using 'Arial, Verdana, san-serif' for your font. As a general rule, web pages look neater and easier to read with an Arial type font.

I agree with Adam, you need some spacing between your text and the edges. Either put a cellpadding="5" ( I use 5 alot) in your <table> statement or nest a table in your main table cells that are a little narrower than the cell and have them aligned center. Will have to make the blue column a little wider to compensate for the padding.

Check your spelling on Netscape Navigator.

if i have to be frank, your site is a bit boring design wise!! choose a diffent background color behind your main table!! make your menu more graphically pleasing!! The text you have entered looks a bit out of place in the format it is at right now, make the text not reach from side to side of the cell it is in!! This is about it!!

I liked you black background and your design. The logo though is bright blue and red,, and doesn't match any part of your site. I would make your site match by probably changing the logo to match the colors on your website appropriately.

Thanks for all the replies, now to reply to your individual comments:

I made the site on my computer but when I uploaded the site to AO's server I had to redesign the site to compensate for the ad banner. So I want to get the main page ready before I go through the rest of the site and change everything to conform to it.

I use Verdana -1 as the primary font, and Times New Roman as the backup.

Thanks for the idea about nesting a table, I hadn't thought of that. There is no CellSpacing/Padding on the content area because I wanted it to be set to "0" for the navigation bar. However, since I had to redesign the layout, I might not even need the CellSpacing/Padding/LeftMargin/TopMargin set to "0".

Double OK dot com: What BGColor would you suggest for the Navigation Bar? And what would you suggest to make the site more "graphically-pleasing"?
