Hmmm... Not sure what to say about that :) Tracie (my partner) designed the
site... It could just be her touch coming through.

Good. We use CSS em units for all fonts so they should be fully resizable
too but we do tend to go for something that doesn't tend to give people
headaches as a default.

> The pages load fast.

This one I am very happy about... I'm using a custom CFC to cache the
generated content into a Java hashmap. As the site is fully CFC based, the
pages can take upto 1 second to render. Once they are cached, that drops
down to between 0-16ms :)

> The dropdowns are readable and easily read.

Cool.. Again, pure ul/li CSS for the nav. There is some JS but it is only
required for IE6 to work.

Good point... I'll sort that one out.

I'll pass this on to Tracie... Although, there are colour themes throughout
the site where content is related so this may not change...

In the UK, it's an s :). I am working on code to identify users
country/language by checking IP and browser settings. The site is fully
content managed and can cope with translations I just haven't got round to
that yet...

For me the jury is out on this one too... They are meant to be "quick links"
highlighting particular parts of the site... I think I'll take a couple of
the less useful ones out...

e.g shorten down site_page.cfm to page.cfm ? I can do that... I've tried to
find a balance between SEO and usability so I'm gonna watch how the search
engines react to the new site...

> Very informative site. Good depth. Overall well done.

Thanks for the time you spent. It is very much appreciated!
