So, comment, complain, rant, flame, suggest, and I'll try and incorporate as much as possible. I'm not entirely happy with the looks of the Projects list for example, so that'll probably be tweaked a bit anyway, but I'm open to suggestions on anything.

Oh, good, I'm not a hardware person either, and this is what I'm good at. :-)

First off, ditch the XHTML, and go with HTML 4.01 strict. You're sending it as text/html, so the XHTML doctype has no advantages.

Second, I don't know if you can turn on MultiViews on your server, but if you can, do. Then get rid of the ".html" extensions on all the links. They'll still be served properly, but if they ever need to be turned into directories, this way they'll still work. (And I think there's a good chance that, e.g., VGA Core could be turned into a directory.) Also, that would allow...

Get rid of the file extension on the image, too. Then put an SVG image of the same thing as ogp_logo.svg . Any browser that requests SVG images over pngs will get it instead. This is good, because browser scaling of bitmap images is poor and you can see that in the anti-aliasing, or rather lack of it, in the current one.

In the News section, get rid of the <a name="">s, and use ids instead. Also, wrap each post in a <div class="newspost">. And get rid of the <hr>s, and instead use .newspost h2{border-bottom:2px grove #4189ff;} or something like that.

The logo should not have an alt text of "Open Graphics Project Logo". It should probably be empty (alt="") or maybe "Open Graphics Project". But since that exact text is already nearby, it should probably be blank.

And finally, get rid of the images directory. Put images in the folder with the files they belong with, or if it belongs with many files, put it in the deepest common folder.


Oh, one other thing... I'm not sure why you put the header last in the source... I think I'd put it first.

And since you asked for flames... TABS? UUGH! USE SPACES!! ;)
