Looks nice. I like the color scheme and the layout. Want to see more.

hows this?

Nice look. The colors seems a little washed out though. I like the mouseover effect on the buttons, but the white on light blue on lighter blue on a little darker blue gets a bit monochrome on my LCD screen.
Are you sticking with the frameset layout on this one? I keep hearing compaints about frames not working well with some browsers and on Macs.

what do you mean washed out? on my lcd it actually looks better than my normal monitor. ill fool around with the buttons, good call there.
yeah i think ill use the frameset. those 5 people on macs can suffer. bwahahah
Sorry = I should have been more specific. On my laptop LCD, not my desktop one. I agree with you about the 5 mac users out there, but, unfortunately, there's lots of laptop users out there.
RH
well what parts look washed out? do you have AIM?

Looks great. My only issue is when you change screens, the graphic that says our Mission, or Testimoials or anything, seems to blink out the square outline of it before it renders. What's going on there.
Other than that, nice job. I like the changes you did on the logo too.

yeah i know. its an iframe changing .html pages to show the one with the right title on it. thats the only way i could figure out how to do it. know any other ways?
thanks for the nice comments.
Is your client ok with this site NOT working for Netscape? I test a little on netscape, and just checked yours out. What a mess. I can't even explain. iframes do not work well with netscape at all. You may want to double check with AOL as well. Seems like the viewership of the site would be potential AO-Hell-ers.

Guh. Netscape. F Netscape. I mean, I don't know any other way to do it. Without refreshing the page every time of course.
Like I said, as long as your client is ok with it.
I agree with you on the netscape thing, but most clients would not.
I don't use iframes for this reason. The one group i would be concerned with is older version AOL users, as that browser was built on Netscape usability.
Your choice. I would at least pose it to the client, and explain that you are using a newer technology which will render the site useless to certain browsers. If you can prove to them the small user base that will be affected, they may not care. Or, they may want the page refresh (ugly, but works)
IMHO, I always prefer to have the discussion before I get the complaint.

This is the conversation i just had...
Her- "What about netsc-"
Me: "No. Netscape no longer exisists! MwwAHhahAha!!"
*click*
Everything okay I guess.
MAC'S ARE GONNA CONQUER THE WORLD
Bill Gates will lose the battle.....I know, cause I looked in my ball of truth and justice.
offtopic.. dunno of that conversation is real or not, but in case it is true i'll say two things:
your client looks a bit dumb....
hope they don't find out you fooled them
g luck :)
And this is true b/c Steve Jobs finally decided to load 2 inferior processors into one machine (which needs 7 fans BTW) in order to barely beat out a single P4 chip?Quote:

Incidentally, I hear the AMD already has a 64 bit chip ready to go, and Intel isn't far behind. Somehow that 1.8 clock speed on the POWER G5 TITANIUM MEGA-JUICED SUPERCALIFRAGILISTIC MAC-A-LOT isn't going to be so impressive after all.

hmm. bill gates does not make pc's... he makes OS's and that has nothing to do with pc vs mac... pc's will survive and surpass macs because of linux :)
Only if they judge on over priced looks..and NOT on performance.Quote:

I have to see ANY MAC out perform a PC with my own eyes... anyone can look at a piece of paper and point a finger..
but just everyday tasks..liek opening up your applications..booting up, shutting down...etc..etc.. surely you jest!!
