Hi guys Minis in the gong is a club that I helped set up and run in wollongong. We have a website, but it hasn't really changed in 3 years so i thought i would refresh it. here is the old one: www.minisinthegong.com.au and the new one is http://home.exetel.com.au/minisinthegong/newSite/ Let me know what you think and weather you think we should add or change anything. Cheers Ryan |

looks good, however, I think the text inside the minis at the top of the page (Home, forum, buy & sell etc) should be all the same size.. |

Couple of things The animated gif is a bit over the top, 300kb is rather large. Slows down the page scrolling for me considerably in IE. Header image has a lot of jaggy edges. |

In addition to the above, i think the top frame is too big. It suits the index page, but as soon as you go to other sections you're losing 30% of your screen. Even on the first page you have to scroll down to read the text and i'm running 1280x800 resolution. Looks much better though than the original site ![]() |

one more thing about the colours - see if there is a way to get the forum and photo section to match with the rest of the site as you've got a black and white top frame contrasting with wordart and lots of blue. Just try and keep it simple. |

Thanks guys I agree about the header being to big on the other pages. Also the word art and the different coloured backgrounds will go, i just hadn't got to that yet. The text in the buttons can easily be changed, so i will look at doing that. As for the gif. on the front page. Does it cause problems for everyone? Because i have fairly slow connection and it seems fine? Keep the feedback coming. Ryan |

I think it looks heaps better mate. I too have trouble scrollling through the front page (well not trouble, its just slow) I am on broadband too. I agree with emmeline in making the letters in the Minis the same size, as the contact us writing looks a little out of place, But other than that its a huge improvement |

i would lose the frame at the top.. frames are so 1990s!!! on a 1024*768 web page the heading takes up around 25% of your screen space... maybe try some css/rollover for the menu so you can have mouse hover effects when the icon is over the buttons.. for the gallery use some form of a .js lightbox to enlarge images from thumbnails... make up a nice form contact page... see here for some examples: www.jodielouisemillinery.com.au thats a page I made recently, tried to keep everything clean and simple. and its valid xhtml and css. ![]() |
