    Default Our New Site

    http://www.team330.org

    Please visit, comment, and give ideas on what I could add in order to make it even more appealing to the user.

    Also, of you use a browser other that Firefox it would be cool if you could post any problems (Firefox is strangely the only browser I have accessibility to...)

    Hmm... nice site. On the menu, you might want to remove the yellow border around the links (not the header). It makes it look a bit... blocky. Also:

    Tonnes of errors in the validator. Other than that, good job!

    I think it looks good as well. I would perhaps lighten up the background even more. Maybe a #CCCCCC or even an off white.

    It would flow better with the sunset header image, I think.

    And yes, get it valid code so it fits all browsers.

    Dark colors are hard to make a site layout look good, but they also make the site look like there's more content. It's good the way you have it done.

    You're using XHTML Transitional (which you shouldn't be; stick with HTML Strict until IE supports XHTML, then go to XHTML Strict), but it looks as if you've written HTML and then put a few Xs in the DOCTYPE and hoped that would make it XHTML.

    It didn't. If you don't need any of the features XHTML provides, and/or you want to support IE, stick with HTML.

    I agree with John on the yellow boxes.

    Well, if it were a useless site and we said "yeah, go ahead, it's brilliant" we'd hardly be doing anyone any favours, would we? Generally, when someone posts a site for review it's because we can point out problems other people would miss. If all the author wants is a "ooh yes, very pretty colours dear" s/he can ask his/her mother/grandmother/younger sibling/uncle/aunt/cat-loving elderly neighbour.

    Looks good.

    Just one small suggestion--The border between buttons is 2 pixels wide, but the other borders are one pixel. This is because you're seeing the left border from one button and the right button from the other. Try giving each of the buttons a border on only 3 sides to eliminate those double-wide borders.
