Its not bad apart from the error's im getting in IE, I'm not sure what it looks like in firefox and other browsers because I haven't checked but in IE the postioning of some of the content div box's is messed up, and the navigation is all the way down at the bottom of the page. I bet you already know most of this but yeah I have to tell it how it is. I think it would be best if you completed it like 99% first then showed it to us for feedback. :)

In Firefox it looks a bit weird too, there's not right border.
Apart from that, in 'Latest News - Site News', I think the gry you've used for the text is too light.
Overall it looks a bit plain, but it's good for a start :)

Hmm,

i think its ok, but alot of what you have achieved could eb done without images...im talking about footer, content, and nav text.I ts just a drag on the loading time. It's a bit too boxy for my liking, + im unsure about the backwards RSS logo on the right lol!!

Its OK for a start, but keep working is my advice :)

i was joking about the bookmark thing ;p, if you have dreamweaver it will code it for you if you cant. or you can do it in css, for the A.hover add background-image: somethingreallycoolbutmysterious;


obviously change that to your image :D

so if your buttons are #buttons, create another section as

#buttons.a:hover (i think)

not sure id have to check.

I can't really say anything about coding because I don't know alot about it, but with that improved banner the layout looks really nice,

Impresse with the logo looks very nice.

Well Done.

i still dont understand the point of the backwards live bookmark logo, it looks out of place. but the header has been improved, you just need to improve the table headers and it should look nice.

Yeah, I like the new header a lot too.
I'd add some effects to the navigation links on the right, and I can't see a right border for the site, which makes it look a bit weird.
Nice improvements altought I think you should work on the content area a little bit more. :blink:
