Lynnsey, thank you for your time. I value your opinion since you helped me
out so much with my last site. I shrunk the gifs and finally got the map
done. Hope it looks better than the other one. Again, thanks for you time.
Jill

Hi Jill,

I briefly scanned the other reviews and they sounded very positive - great
job!

I have some constructive criticism. Someone else may have said this already
but I didn't see it. Your logo (clogo.gif) is 645 pixels wide, and the text
below (2nd.gif)) is 686 pixels wide, which causes sideways scrolling at
640x480. If you made them just a little smaller, it would do away with this
problem.

Ditto the header images (barlogo.gif) at the top of each secondary page -
they are 789 pixels which may cause scrolling even at 800x600 (I didn't
check). There is no need for them to be quite so wide, is there? Avoid
sideways scrolling whenever possible.

I would also put the images into a separate directory, just to make things
easier for yourself - especially when you build large sites with many files.

One other thing - the page titles (emplogo.gif, etc) - if you're going to
use a standard font you might as well use plain text - less download time
and it's easier to maintain.

HTH

Regards,
Lynnsey
