Review Request : Sim's Solos
Well, i haven't been around for a while - moving house etc kept me busy - but still, hopefully i'm allowed to request a review here. It's for a site i've re-done, i'm not too worried about code errors or anything, more about the appearance of it.
Thanks in advance

The Width is a little narrow but its COOL, Anyways the Icon at the bar doesnt seem to match the site, its also best if all the pics were either all grayscale or all color...
Lastly I feel like the top part of the page looks like it was cut-off... Thats All I can suggest at the moment...

Thanks - the reason the pics are in colour and some aren't is because the band ones are in black and white and the colour is the guy whose site it is. Which icons did you mean mate?

The bar icon, the one on the task bar (a minor detail anyways)... maybe you could put a little more spark on the colored pics and center it so that it stands out more, anyways whats with this link? http://www.4templates.com/ ... do you own it?

nah where'd you get that from? Maybe something to do with the domain forwarding free service i'm using on it. I don't know. That causes the task bar icon too btw.

I like the site, and I am pretty sure that it is actually an optical illusion. Either that or all the text was skewed to the right!
By the way, the header suggests that your site is a method to learn how to play solos, but I am not sure if that is reflected in the content?
I really liked the typeface used in the headers though, and it was a good use of justified text.
Anyway, good work

Frames and tables. You should work on getting your hatml and css valid.

There isn't one frame in it. Tables because i don't like CSS for layout and in the first post i said i don't care about valid code. Ah well.

i actually love how people's judgement of a good layout is whether it's coded PERFECTLY or whether it uses CSS instead of tables. Last time i had an argument about standards etc. I almost got banned for it so this time i'll just say, ha!

Go tables
Your site is in a frameset, may be your host doing it
On 800x600 it seems very tight, maybe use a bit more space, at least 750 wide?
I like the way you have given the guestbook a grey colour on hover, goes well with the cross out, nice touch.
I'm not one for grammer and spelling mistakes but I did notice a couple of i's (not capitals), one is at bottom of 'making of' page.
A bit more colour around the place probably wouldn't hurt. hmm ok maybe only on text pages, the solos, making of etc are better proportioned.
The site is pretty well complete for what your offering, only thing apart from the site size would be the file sizes, worth mentioning what they are?

Cheers

Nice little site for who are interested in this subject. after all this is not my line. I can't tell much about music and bands but according to the website reviews. I would like you to tell that first of all yours is a subdomain. next you also don't give much weight on keywords. So i think you will not get enough traffic from the search engines and you will have to wait and write posts on forums for reviews for your site to get some traffic if ever.
Please do some research and submit your site to all the search engines.

This one I really like. But try to add some validation on your contact forms. I`ve -accidentally - clicked on the submit button and the form was sent will all the fields empty. Not good.
