Website

Re: New site put up a few weeks ago..

I really like the design (I don’t have a creative bone in my body so I can appreciate other’s work!). It all seems to hang together properly ie. not bits and pieces cobbled together. I like the cursive style writing for the headings.

Just one tip – run the site through an HTML validator. It threw up a few errors for me.

Thanks aslsw66.. Never considered myself much of a designer, Im just persistent.lol… I spent like 4 months playing with the design..
I noticed the errors, the site itself was fine, but once they started to add content, bla. Alot of spaces in url’s, and stuff like that, cant do anything unless I watch everything they write and correct them.

Re: New site put up a few weeks ago..

Some few findings:

• There’s nowhere an opening body tag, on no page.
• Same applies to the title tag.
• If you’re on Bio there’s Press styled as active, too. Seems intentional (see Press), nevertheless irritating as is the one-page-solution for two “sections”.
• The reset button in the contact form would need a value so it’s displayed consistently in English from every foreign country, though that’s sort of nitpicking ;)

Pretty well done for a no-coder/no-designer!

Thanks for the list uli… I checked it again, I had made some changes, I guess I deleted stuff without realizing. I know about the press/bio, Ill see what I can do about changing that.
Thanks again for the help….
