Re: Please review my Web Site! From Patrick R at GrowSpot.com on 30 Sept '00 replying to Please review my Web Site! posted by Mario Antoniou >I've just uploaded my website and would like to have a few visits for any comments or suggestions on what may be lacking with regards to the content or design. Since I'm asking for it, I welcome all criticism, even the harsh. It's the only way to learn? Whoever designed the site has a lot of talent, however on closer look it's obvious that he/she lives in "Designerland". First off the frames are a big liability in terms of search engine promotion, etc. On top of that, each time I clicked on a link, the entire page re-loaded anyway, so dump the frames and use tables instead. Second, (Like Craig says), the body text shouldn't be a graphic. Instead use stylesheets to control the font/size/etc. Third, from reading Craig's response it sounds as if you have some demo sites in your portfolio, unfortunately I couldn't see anything, just the grey background image. This makes your description "...our rapidly growing list of clients..." sound highly suspect. (I'm on a Macintosh with IE 4.5, and Flash is installed, if that helps) I hope this helps!
