Alright, made this for a local organization - just wanted some reviews on what you guys think about the design. Thanks!

- Your layout has side scrolling which isn't nice (aka : the page is too wide). I'm on 800x600 screen res. You SHOULD work on this. Many 800x600 users use the internet you know ..

- The text area (located on the left) doesn't show the last letter in some lines with IE6.

- Tables aren't recommended. Look up CSS layouts.

- You need an HTML DOCTYPE on the top of your document.

- Fix those errors in your document. Here's to remove all of your errors :
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-design-reviews/84706-icva-group-site.html

1. <STYLE> tags should ALWAYS be within the <HEAD> tag. It should NEVER be within the <BODY> tag as your HTML document shows.

2. the <area> tag requires the 'alt' attribute (this shows how to do it).

3. Errors 3 to 9 shows that you're using invalid attributes. Either remove or use their correct names.

4. for the second error ; try enclosing the #fffff within double quotes (i.e : bgcolor="#FFFFFF") , and see if it eliminates it.

other than that , your design is great

heh thanks for the in depth review

but yeah i was mainly looking for comments on the design
the coding was done as a quick job by a novice coder because the site was the for the client the next day and i needed it done ASAP, my partner is my php/html coder and he is professional quality so im alright on that area usually

thanks again!

bhyraj · 04-23-2005, 11:02 PM

The only thing i dont like about this web site is that it uses frames.. i hate websites with frames , nothing personal Omer.

oh.. and the menu i think it's a little bit big..

good job.

Cheers,

StudioWorks

I also think you should remove the usage of frames.
The site design looks good very clean I like that.

I also checked your gallery and it's not so user friendly.
What you need to do to make the gallery more user friendly is:
- Make the links clickable
- Convert the pictures all to .jpg so I can view it in my browser.
- And add thumbnails to links so I have an idea what the pictures are.

bhyraj · 04-25-2005, 09:52 AM

adjust table space. looking good site. best work.

Omer · 04-25-2005, 03:27 PM

Alright well just to clarify again

the coding was not that big of an issue and I had it done real quick by an amateur coder overnight so it turned out poorly. Usually with something like that I would incorporate PHP includes and such, no frames at all. Wanted a review/commenting on the design aspect and user friendly aspects of the design not coding. Also, do not mind the image gallery, it was for the customer to update themselves, I fully understand it is not user friendly at all, but the client did not ask for a gallery design. Thank you for commenting, really appreciated!
