Suggestion #1: Spell-check
We have gone over the site a couple of times, however nothing on the
web is ever finished. If you've found some particular typos, it would
be great if you could let me know what they are.
Suggestion #2: Why 100% table design? You can't control the way
your user
sees your site. I have a 21 inch monitor and it stretches all the
way across
and is somewhat overwhelming.
Um, its actually a pure CSS layout, so no tables were harmed.
Part of the point of web standards in general is that the user and
user agent have final control of the layout, not the designer. So if
the page is too wide on a 21 inch monitor, why not reduce the window
size?
However I don't want to get into the whole fixed vs flexible layout
debate or we'll be here all night :-)
Suggestion #3: Font size it too big...try dropping the size a
little. I know
accessibility is a concern, but it coming off as trying too hard.
Not trying hard at all.
We liked the big fonts size partly for accessibility, but also partly
because we were fed up with tiny designer sized fonts. I do wonder if
the size is a little to big, especially on lower screen resolutions.
However on large screen resolutions I think it works well. I guess if
you personally find it too big, you could always knock it down a notch.
This is just my opinion...I might be wrong, good job overall however.
Always good to hear this kind of feedback as its a good way to test
your beliefs and assumptions.
Cheers
PS - your personal website is quite nice however, clean, crisp, and
the user
will have the same experience every time they visit, regardless of the
machine.
Yes, I must sort that out. About due for a redesign :-)
