Two words..."Anti Alias" If you use an anti alias fuction when creating the logo at the top it will get rid of the "stepping" look. Other wise I think it looks like a good start.

Hi Ken,
i'm not sure if that's supposed to be a "c" or just a shape, if it's a "c" I would maybe change it to go with the swash caps face already in the logo -- or lose the other swashes and go with the decorative c.

Looks like your off to a good start.

take care,

I agree that some more color should be used. Maybe you can change the background color of some of the boxes. You would probably want to put a background color in the "Navigation", "Home", "Submition Form", and "Contact Us" boxes. I think that would spice it up a bit. I hope this helps.

Looks good, I would ad some more colours to the rest of the site though as it looks a bit plain.

Hey Suzanna,
Psst, I make all of my graphics using paint shop pro 5 'ohh no' What do you got for filters for it? and maybe ill tell you how to do somethings, to get a 3d look go to 'image-effects-cutout and use the following effects= uncheck "fillinterior with color" and have shawdow color black, opacity 50 blur 15 vertical 4 horozontal 4. if your using a image thats not black or white, do the same as above just add i minus sign in front of the vertical and horozontal numbers and change the shawdow color to white... then maybe add a drop shawdow...

Grandmaster,
I have several plug-ins I've downloaded free from the net. The ones I use the most are Graphics Plus and Blade Pro, but my fav is the one I purchased, Eye Candy. What plug-ins to you use? Do you have any favs you would recommend: purchased or freeware?

Thanks for the reply!
