[WSG] Your opinion and feedback requested
I just completed my first fully web-standards compliant website and would appreciate any feedback. Anything from usability, layout, colors, readability, etc... all is fair game. I appreciate your time and feedback. http://www.sentinare.com/ -Jason * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help *
Re: [WSG] Your opinion and feedback requested
the sentinare.com layout falls apart pretty badly on my screen with just a single increase in text size. This is true, but it's mainly the way the 30-day free trial link is marked up with all those spans that goes kablooey and pushes the heading below it over. It may end up being easier to make an image link with alt text in a span to replace that. The heading div (metal) could stand to be scaleable as well. Apart from that the layout seems to hold together and the text flows as it should (in safari). Hey Paul: greetings from Mount Pleasant!

Re: [WSG] Your opinion and feedback requested
Just checked you website. I'm using IE6SP1 on WIN98SE. All's well except for one issue. As other's mentioned the text-size is a problem at large sizes in Safari. I didn't really have a problem with large text sizes (it all seems to look ok on 'biggest' except the header breaks a bit.) My problem is at small sizes. I usually view the internet at 'smaller' in IE. The text on your page is fine on 'Medium' but the jump to 'Smaller' was huge. I'm not sure why (_) it goes from a good medium size at 'Medium' to tiny at 'Smaller'. 'Smallest' is microscopic. I guess this isn't a big problem at all (^_^) But it would be a bit easier for the viewer if the text sized better. Congradulations on the new site!

Re: [WSG] Your opinion and feedback requested
Hi there Jason...I think the site looks great, nice and clean and easy to read.. well done. My only comment is about the lack of a navigation menu I know you can get to the home users, business users and service provider sections from 3 different sets of links on the page but I spent a couple of minutes looking around for a traditional menu of some sort so i think that from a user point of view you might need to include one.

I would agree about having a navigation menu, even with replicating the picture links on the right. They clearly define the user goals for the site so I would have both.

Place font-size: 100% in the style for body, an it will probably look better when the user changes text-size in IE. / m a r t i n -- http://janner.se * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help *
