REVIEW REQUEST: me.cadeh.com
This is my new personal site so I guess I should not put it in here but I still want to know what you all think. It will more than likely only work in IE5 or higher. This site is made very similiar to forgetfoo.com, in which the site can have different skins. I thought it was awesome and had to try my own. Loving CSS.

TWF doesn't have a rule (to my knowledge) about not posting your personal sites for critique.
Interesting! And I commend you on your talents but it just isn't very "functional" in my opinion.
IE 6.0---The graphics are great. The little menu is cool but its "see-throughness"(what is that darn word for see through...LOL:rolleyes: ) makes parts of it hard to read. Maybe if you placed the menu where the backgound was solid.
I hate pop up windows because I like to see where I am going (url in the taskbar) and I can't hit my back button.
I got lost somewhere, think it was on your about page. There were no links back and I couldn't hit the back button so I had to close out the screen and start over. OPPS...Second time around I saw the back button in the top right(my bad).
Nice skins. I just think this would be a much better site without the popups. But since it is a personal site you can get away with it not being accessible I suppose.
NS 4.7---went boink!
Opera 6.0---pink background with the menu in the middle.(and that is all that was visible to me)??
Locked up my IE 6.0 after the third time I opened the site.

Transparency? That the word?
Yeah, anyway. I like how you described it went in Netscape "went boink". hehe, funny. Sorry about it being a popup. I am usually accepting of one popup for a site, but mine also has the popup for the skin changes. My bad. Didn't want it but had to be done. I think I will make that window close automatically when they click on a new skin in it. I can understand the complaint with the transparecy on the navigation too. I have it set to 80% transparency now. Will try 90. Would like it to have a little bit of "see-throughness", as you would say. hehe. your funny disaster.

I used IE5 but the pop up (which i first closed as I thought it was junk) is like an image, I'm unable to scroll, or click on anything, if I do try the whole popup becomes selected.
If I open the pop up in a new window I can scroll but now have two vertical scrol bars. there are no links so am not sure what links DM clicked on lol
DM, if you get stuck in a pop up, use right click/back or forward, or right click open in new window

Well I like it, for a personal site that is! I keep meaning to get around to doing a personal site for me/our family so I can do something a bit different, but never seem to find the time. Worked fine for me in IE5.5. You obviously have a talent for both writing and design and a great sense of hunmour!!

Me like... the Pop-up could be a bit larger... but that's just my opinion. I like the About page. Nice sense of humor you got goin'. Keep up the good work.
