Launching latest site

[SimpleSi]

Just launching my latest site for a school on Monday.

 

St Anne's Catholic Primary School Leyland

 

Would appreciate a quick glance and feedback if something doesn't look OK

In both FF and IE the main content section goes beyond the header and footer on the right hand side (see attached image). Personally I wouldn't use black as a background colour in this situation.

Ta - I'd put a table in one of the modules and it was pushing it across

Of course - didn't change this from last site - I'll bet you've got one of them fancy monitors that do better than 1024x768 - I've done a quick change to slighty blue tinge

 

Ta very much

It's a bit bright for me, if I'm honest.

Header:

* Site header text shouldn't need to be contained within the image....

Navagational menu:

* Top navigational menu would be a lot nicer centred

Information Box:

* Standardise the Icon pack you use and sizes

* Text should be aligned so it starts in the same positions

Content Area:

* E-Safety flash file is streached and therefore pixelated

Footer:

* Compression visible in the "Activemark 2008" logo

* "Saint Mary's RC Parish Church" logo is stretched and therefore pixelated.

* Text should be a darker colour

Page Source:

* Why are you even using tables...... *hiss*

uh oh

Eh - OK (This is harsher marking than daughters AS ICT ;lol:)

 

Navagational menu:

* Top navigational menu would be a lot nicer centred

 

Do you mean the gaps on either side should be same width or the text isn't vertically centered

 

Information Box:

* Standardise the Icon pack you use and sizes

 

Icon pack???

 

* Text should be aligned so it starts in the same positions

 

Agreed - on my todo list already

 

Content Area:

* E-Safety flash file is streached and therefore pixelated

Ta - i just used editor to insert the file I thought it looked bad as well but I just thought it was a bad souece file- on inspection it is sized at 178x225 so I've manually adjusted width/height in source

 

Footer:

* Compression visible in the "Activemark 2008" logo

* "Saint Mary's RC Parish Church" logo is stretched and therefore pixelated.

* Text should be a darker colour

Now your getting picky

Page Source:

* Why are you even using tables...... *hiss*

 

 

Are you some sort of Win7/Iphone fanboy - tables just work without a degree in web design - your lucky I didn't ask you to rate my old Word/Frames based site

I've forgot what the primary colours are, please can you remind me?

 

The blue on yellow really hurts my eyes.

Primary Colours: Red, Yellow and Blue

 

I will just leave these here:

* Color Theory for Designers, Part 1: The Meaning of Color - Smashing Magazine

* Color Theory For Designers, Part 2: Understanding Concepts And Terminology - Smashing Magazine

Its for a PRIMARY School :lol;

 

You must have your brightness turned up too much

If you want less eye strain - try St Leonards CE Primary School

 

(I tried to tell the head that bright blue doesn't work on a website but he said - that's our colour I developed this site 18 months ago and its taken this long to get him to sign off and launch!!! )

 

 

Primary Colours: Red, Yellow and Blue

 

You don't want to get into an argument over whats a primary colour with a Broadcast Engineer who's turned ICT tech - look at my Avatar
