The site is not completely done, and I have some testing to do, but I would like to get some feedback. I am going to do some web design on the side.

I know that the crolling on "case studies" does not work. I am working on that.

Tested in IE6 56k modem 800x600. Loads nice and fast. I'm not keen on the popup window and the content doesn't fill the page if the window is resized. It isn't obvious how to get back to the main page and there is no back button. Otherwise, a nice design. Good luck with it.

Thanks for the feedback. Did the popup window work automatically for you , or did you have to click to get it?

Tested in IE6 on 1280*1024.

I really like the look and feel you have given this site and think it gives potential customers a good taste for how professional your business is. I do feel however that you should find a way of getting round the popup issue, or just drop that front page altogether.

Also I had a really hard time making out your navigation icons and the yellow text around them - I know my resolution is pretty high but you still should try and accomodate for this, its the standard resolution on alot of new TFTs aswell.

Thanks for the feedback. The type surrounding the navigation on the top has been a universal criticism. I am in the process of updating the type to be a larger size, and gill sans bold, which is used elsewhere on the site.

Default Your site

Dear Brian,

I have no website design experience at all. But I have been a writer for over fifteen years. Spent the last two years studying how to write for the web. The red background is distracting, at least to me. I focused more on your content and use of text.

I would work on that a little. The old saying “Content Is King” is gaining steam with the major search engines.

I have found many great looking sites that are sub-par when it comes to the writing of the content.

I will say, I wish I could do what you do with the graphics.

Best Wishes

Ken Mathews
