I visited your site. I understand it is a work in progress. There are too many comments I could make. I limited myself to those that need most attention first:
1. Why is there a doorway or front page? Such pages make me want to leave - not enter. It is downright unfriendly to expect me to waste my time reading your terms of use before I even see what the site is about.
In marketing you have less than 1 minute - and typically, only one chance - to get the customer interested enough to enter your site - don't put up an unwelcome sign at the gate! Remove your front door and let them in right away.
2. What is the purpose of your site? It is not clear. I tried some of the links and still am confused. I gathered at one point that it is about a city/region in southern India. But, some of the links make me wonder what the real purpose is.
3. I did a screen shot of its appearance in Safari - sent directly to you separately. I send only one photo but the result of rendering the page is the same in Opera and Firefox. The top table is left bound and the main content sections are centered. This might be OK for small screens, but not for large screens like mine (23).
4. The site Map Quick Links menu is a nice start, but the actual links in there are NOT related to your real site map. Misnamed?!
5. Your HTML coding needs some order imposed. It works generally, but needs a lot of cleaning up. For starters there is no DOCTYPE declared - so it could not be validated in HTML 4.01 or XHTML 1.0 or 1.1.
6. Your CSS.. - well, it needs much more help.
7. Go to http://www.westciv.com/index.html and order their courses on HTML/XHTML and then get the CSS courses. I used them; and, in a short period of time I was easily coding XHTML and CSS. It isn't rocket science; and, the Westciv courses are among the best I've seen in terms of clarity of explanation of the steps to take in programming.
8. You can also go to http://www.internet.com and http://www.webreference.com for additional tutorials in XHTML, CSS and other tutorials on web design.
9. Finally - LOVED the elephant photos!
