RE: Fw: [WSG] Call for Site Check

One other point, on FF 1.5, if I click to the left of the main column, it
selects everything and makes things look a bit odd.  I don't know if there's
anything you can do about it but it's slightly annoying and can be
confusing.

hello,

"What do you all think about adding yellow as the   primary link
color?"

-dont know but I think the new yellow is still to   saturated
for the
secondary links, they are the
focal point now.

But the addition of a new color does help make the  navigation
more
intuitive.

What about the color thats in the search box or
something like it for the secondary links?

The photo thumb of the river (after you click the
clouds) complements the blue really well. Trying samplesof
that with an
eyedropper might get you a good color aswell. Well thats what i
would try
anyway

Thanks, Jay.  yeay, the text on the slide rollovers was a pretty
tough call - but in the end I decided on such low contrast text in
order to keep the photo the primary focus.  I'm not to worried
about it, since the text is secondary content.  

Also, the banner is actually a duplicate link to the home page.  (:

Best regards,

Thanks for the input on www.focusontheclouds.com! 

kvnmcwebn, I have added in a yellow link color...
FFCC00 stole the show, so I muted it with just a little blue to make it
blend in better.  

What do you all think about adding yellow as the primary link color?

Gunlaug, I have added a dark blue background, for visitors browsing the
site without images.  I really appreciate the comment - I would
have completely missed it otherwise.

Stephen, I tried a darker background in my comps, but
the blue is so dark already that the main site area gets lost, when a
darker background is added.
