Site looks great and the navigation is easy. I like it. However, the content alone is enough to get high marks. BaldEagle

First impression is very good. The only problems I have are small and perhaps not even all that significant. On the bottom menu you have ) as an option and it is not apparent what it is for. Also I am not a fan of changing the font-weight or on hover for a horizontal menu as it makes the menu...

After taking a closer look at your site the little script I directed you to won't address your problem (if this is the problem) because you are using them as backgrounds and the script only transforms img tags. Not sure where you go from here except to change the pngs to gifs or start searching...

I think the site looks very good. Are you using transparent png's. If you are then that is why they aren't working in IE. Here is a link with a fix (work around) for IE. I think this has been addressed in IE7 (hope). http://courses.washington.edu/englhtml/engl382/javascripts.html...

I really should spell check my work. Thanks. BaldEagle

I think the next thing to do is let the client review it and see what they say. I thank y'all for your help. BaldEagle

I'm back. I wanted to address Ian and Stephanie's concern about the text. I went with a heavier type face and got rid of the bolding. Also I separated the main page text into paragraphs to try and eliminate the blocky look. Do you think the "Justified text" is part of the problem? I...

It seems my problem had little to do with my hardware and lots to do with my understanding. I now see (hope I get it) what you mean about the image tonal quality. I appreciate that you all have stuck with me so long on this as I am an old timer programmer and really not a designer. I really...

Ok, here goes. I have adjusted the image using my new settings. Please let me know if the image now looks better as far as being faded into the background goes. I understand that I may need to find a better image, perhaps something more along the lines of what Arkette sent me, but I do want to...

I think I have my problem solved. I opened the image you sent me in PSP7 and still could not see it (all white). I did searching through the help files and found the section on gamma correcton. I adjusted the gamma until I could see your image although still a little lite. I then loaded the...

No offense taken at all. And I think I understand what the problem is now. The Lalique.jpg you sent is not visible to me. It is practically pure white. Only if I tip my screen forward almost flat can I see there is something there. Probably was good for you so in reverse what looks good to me...

Again, I appreciate the comments/suggestions. I apologize for taking up so much of your time on this, but I want to get this right. The original site in my opinion sucked, aesthetically at least, so I want to impress the client with this re-write. I have replaced the image with a monochrome...

BTW, Arkette, you have a great lookin' site. BaldEagle

Thanks for the comment. I have taken your advice and swapped out the background image to something less busy plus I have made the text standout as well. Could you do me a favor and follow the 'Rugs' link on the main menu and hover over one of the images. Next go to the 'Cameras' link and you...

Please review this rewrite and give me some pointers as to what makes a site appeal at first glance. http://www.dwd.somee.com/aui you can see the original site here http://www.antiquesunlimitedinc.com also for Firefox users it should look and work the same, however I have a couple of...

This may not be of any benefit but it seemed to address your dilemma (except for the non-offer offers). This is an excerpt and the whole thing can be read at http://content.websitegear.com/article/sell_website.htm. A Site's Value to Buyers: These days most websites are valued by the number...

I use a freeware program called "Crimson Editor". It syntax hilights many languages, has smart indenting and if you cursor over a {, [, ( it will show you the corresponding close }, ], ). Comes in handy when the code gets intricate. You can get it just about from any software downloading site...

http://www.minibb.net http://forum.snitz.com Here's a couple. I believe they are both free. There are lots on google if search "forum software". BaldEagle

That is kind of a tricky one. I am certainly not a legal authority by any means but I would defer back to my original post in that all this should be explained up front in some sort of contract. I should think that the client should understand that the content on the site is theirs but all...

I have always been curious about these things. When one views the source they have nested body tags and head tags and while I realize it won't validate it seems to display just fine. How do rendering engines manage to handle this? Is it because there is no doctype? BaldEagle
