Suggestions on a somewhat strange page.

Hello everyone. This review will be a strange one because the page I am testing will not actually be seen on the internet but rather over an intranet at my art show in May of this coming year. It will only be seen in Internet Explorer 5.5 - 6 and at 1024x768 screen resolutions. For this reason I have designed it specifically for these settings.

Anyways the site will be the base for some studies that I am doing on metal and how to artificially show it in photoshop but for now I have not completed the content. I am going to place it near the bottom left hand corner.

Ok, so enough background info! Here is the site:

Please tell me what you like and don't like. And btw, I know its graphics intensive already.

Thanks guys.

The green on green text is small and very hard to read for geezers like me. I ended up having to highlight it to get enough cantrast to read it. old folks need love too. love the graphics

Lol sorry chuck. Just sorta picked a shade of green. Didn't really think about that. but thanks. I will change it to a higher contrast.

Hi dk,

Since you are on the metallic side, I suggest making the larger text (metallic studies) in a chromed font. It might convey the "metal" part better.

Make sure you check your spelling before showing (articially, instead of artificially).

What type of study are you doing? Are you trying to develop work that looks metallic? Or taking metallic work and making it look artsy?

Overall, I think it's an okay design, and the layout is nice.

I think where it says metallic studies, should stick out more... Otherwise, good start!
