My first site all comments welcome

[pcmanauls]

This is my first web site and i would like the expert to review it.

What does it look like, is it fast enough, is the colour combination ok, navigation etc etc.

I am a big boy so can take any criticisms and will work on rectifying them.

My only thought is that on some of your pages you are mixing fonts - Times here, Arial (or related) there. A consistant use of font makes things look much tidier. Otherwise it all looks pretty good...resizes nicely, colours fit well (although you might want to change your hyperlinked text colour to something other than the bog-standard browser blue, such as the red that appears in the logo).

Never really thought about the hyperlinks will give it a try this afternoon.

Thanks

your site is stupid, you need to take a lesson from www.dahboo.com

[pcmanauls]

I suppose if i make all the text like yours then pepole wont mind scrolling all day, or even better jam it in so tight each line joins together

www.dahboo.com -- Fantastic! Now that's what I call a site...I'm struggling to see at the moment due to the image after-burn :cool: ...I hope it looks worse on Netscape.

My only disappointment was the lack of serveral large animated gifs, a few frames...oh and it didn't crash my browser - could do better!!!

I'd say, one can tell you put some work into it, but it needs a bit more. Try using body { margin: 0; } in your CSS, so that the graphics don't look so chopped-off, and avoid using tables for layout.

I could not validate the HTML because you do not have a character encoding type, and when I overrode the character encoding, I could not find an encoding that could be translated. You use an illegal character on line sixteen in the UTF-8, worldwide character set, which should be fixed so that the page can be validated by the W3C. I have validated the document using HTMLHelp (http://htmlhelp.com/)'s validator, and found a fairly large amount of errors (http://www.htmlhelp.com/cgi-bin/validate.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpcmanauls.com%2F&warnings=yes).

I then validated your CSS (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning=2&uri=http%3A//www.pcmanauls.com/), which seems to also have errors that should be fixed.

I then ran your site through the Bobby validator (http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/bobbyServlet?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fpcmanauls.com%2F&output=Submit&gl=wcag1-aaa&test=), who found a lot of accessibility problems that should be addressed. I also ran your site through the Cynthia Says (http://www.cynthiasays.com/) validator, which also addresses some accessibility issues.

Afterwards, I tested your site in a text-only browser (http://www.delorie.com/web/lynxview.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpcmanauls.com%2F), and found that it would be difficult to use the site in a text-only browser. This also should be fixed by using proper ALT descriptions on your IMG tags, and using semantic, meaningful markup rather than tables for you layouts.
