Hi

I have worked on a simple site for a local artist.

Have a look and see what you think.

I'll do along with what they said, and add that your "current" page tab isn't working on the Gallery and Contact pages. The tab turns orange on all the others, but not these two. I'm using FF on a PC.

A straightforward landing page with one fault viewed through SeaMonkey. The important part - the call to action, to click on, is italicized in a light font which is very difficult to read. I don't know how fast these others expect a response but, your page loading is MUCH faster than the sites I was on earlier. The Gallery page, with multiple thumbnails of course, was a partial second slower than the rest. Good work.

You really shouldn't have this before your DOCTYPE statement:
Quote:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
That will throw IE into QUIRKS MODE, and you can get some unexpected results.

The coding -- the whole thing's in tables... bleeaaahhh... WHY ?
You've got a nice layout, you're using css, ditch the tables for layout and step into the 21st century.

You should not use PX for font sizing, it prohibits people with IE from resizing the text, which is rather on the small side. Use em or % to size your fonts, don't handcuff users into YOUR font size choices, not everyone is 21 with perfect eyesight.

The site looks nice. What I like best is the design of the header. It looks appealing to eyes.

Nice looking site. It took 15 seconds for it to load for me though. Not sure if it was my internet connection or the host though.

Looks decent.. I think with different colors/scheme it could really look good. Also I don't think you need your homepage linked at the bottom of the "News" section.

Interesting choice of colours... the site looks nice and simple which is good.
Navigation is good and easy to follow.

Good work
