thanks alot for your thoughts

The first thing I would do is get rid of the pop up at the first page

and maybe use the "keyword" and description" tags in your MetaTags (to get a better listing in search engines) other than that it looks very nice! (and tasty)

Cheers for da reply.

I was wonderin wot it looks like on tft monitor. coz i tried it on my laptop and all the colors have gotten darker. Is this the case for TFT displays monitors (not on laptops). Plus it looks ok from a different angle on tft.

Is this a comon problem?

thanks

If you dont get the right angle and the right lighting it is common the the colors will get messed up, and its hard to get the right angle so thats probably the problem

Get rid of that pop-up and "Untitled Document" is not very good title.

virtualrush · 08-01-2004, 07:17 AM

thanx ppl.

Should i do the meta tags on all pages, or just the index page? Is there a deifference?

cheers

nice design, , make sure you give it a title, so it doesnt display Untitled Document

oohh, I like it. I rarely get to see a food website. Now I'm hungry. I wonder if my brownies are close to being done yet, lol

looks nice. besides what was already mentioned, I'd put something else in the upper left behind the name. also, I'd think about putting a subtle background in the space around the main square. if you're looking at it with a high resolution all of that blank space makes it look real plain. some different colored text for the links when the cursor is held over them would spice it up a bit too. just some suggestions... I think you did a nice job though.

i just noticed that the envelope on the homepage isn't a mailto link like it is on the other pages. also, what's that phone up there in the right corner for? maybe use an alt tag to show the phone number when moused over?

cheers for dat, didnt realise that some ppl go higher than 1024, will do sumthing! And will corect the homepage, and great idea for the alt tags.

cheers!

First of all, I would change the titles of each page from "Untitled Document" to anything else. Make the "mail" and "phone" icon at the top right corner lead to somewhere. On the menu links, I would add any type of rollover effect. For instance, when the mouse is taken over one of the links, make the color change to a different one. The "Online Quote" section of your website is giving a 404. Finally, under "Contact Us," add a form that the visitors can use to email your client, rather than just posting the email address. A new scrollbar color would also look nice. Overall, the website looks amazing at the moment due to its simplicity.

Very nice! (But) If I were you, I'd make the text just a bit darker, which will make it easier to read.

Best of luck,
Rob

Nice design! The only thing is that the "mouth-watering" food seems a bit dull -- the colors are flat and they are a bit blurry. Work on making them truly irresistible.
