Site Review 1

[gcw1]

Hey everyone, this is a personal page that I reluctantly built after constant persuasion from friends and family. I know it has many flaws, but I'm not expecting a lot of traffic. Now that it's built i'd like to improve upon it. Any suggestions, comments or criticism are all welcome. Not sure how it looks in NS, I never tested it. Thanks. Enjoy

Looks okay to me on Netscape 7. The black font on the Links page is difficult to read.

Everything looks good, except for the dark text on your Links page as stated above. I run at 1600x1200 and it's almost impossible to read. It looks alright at 1280x1024... I think if you could bump the font 1 size, it would be good.

Looks okay. but I would remove this line.

**Note - This Page is best viewed using a resolution of 1024x768 or greater.

is really disappointing and even a lil' bit rude to say
that you are showing your work only to people that has 1024*768 or greater resolutions...

In any case you could check the screen object and depending on the availHeight and availWidth properties use a different CSS.
one more thing I would reduce the size of your table from 800px to something less than 775px.
When viewed in a monitor 800*600 I have to scroll right to get the last part of the screens.


other than that.. good..
cool drawings.

gcw1, Hi Just viewed your site on a IE6/1024*768 resolution...
Here are some of my comments:

1) links.html -- The links should really open in a new window, you never want to "force" your users away from your site...

2) dis.htm -- Any reason why the Disclaimer page is in a small pop up and not in the right-hand content area as the rest of the site?? Its annoying when you have a popup blocker (like I do)...

3) contact.html -- Instead of having a "mailto:" link, create a webform and use that as a contact guide...you can sue some kind of script, like ASP, PHP, CGI, etc...besides the "mailto:" will return results in an concatenated form, similar to hi+my+name+is+GUJUm0deL+I+really+liked+your+site...


That's it...other then the site is nice, like the color scheme and the font-style choice...

Hi glenn,

Nice site. I like that. What's your deviantart.com URL, or do you not have one?

The only suggestion I have is when you click a thumbnail you can see the enlarged image. You should have a link to view the next image so that you can scroll that way through the pics and not have to go back each time.

Nice job though.

Hope this helps!
