I own and operate a travel website for Fernie BC, Canada. It's been online for 1 year and I'm starting a redesign. I would be grateful for user feedback on the existing site, that would help me in this process. Likes, dislikes, suggestions, etc. Thank you!

Very good site, and easily navigable. THE VIRTUAL TOURS ROCK! Very cool.

My only complaint is that I feel the page is too wide in the "you are virtually here" section. Seems to be too much white space and the lines of text go all the way across the screen which makes it difficult to read, in my opinion. Also, the site fills my entire screen. Might just be a product of the resolution on which my monitor is set?

Thanks for letting me comment on your beautiful site. I wanna go to Fernie!

I think the site is very nicely organized and very clean! Very impressive for the amount of information there was to organize. That can be so hard to do.

The only thing I have a question about is: How do I get back to the home page once I've clicked on a link? I might be missing it but I couldn't find a way.

Great site!

Thanks for your feedback!

I will incorporate a more easier link to the home page. Right now at the bottom of every page (with the copyright) there is a home link. I will make the logo a link back to home? Would this be sufficient for most users?

Also regarding the page resizing... I read once that it's good to build a site that will resize so that it 'spreads' accross the visitors monitor. Thereby letting those with large monitors enjoy the benefit of having all the information presented to them with less scrolling. The site is built to work fairly well at 800 X 600, better on 1074 or higher. Thoughts?
