Looked at the site purposely in full 21 in. screen, high
resolution, will let others comment on other sizes and
resolutions.

 1.  General appearance.

Looked at it with MIE5 and NS4.7. Looked best in MIE, in
NS4.7 the paragraphs appeared to have first line indents,
and second paragraph broke right after the first "of". I
enjoyed the cartoons on the youth page. Your backgrounds are
not consistant. Pick one and stick with it, and I hope it is
not the one on "Happenings", hard to read. The "More About
Us" page does not even seem to have a background image. I
would suggest you use background image "back.gif" on all
pages (the bricks used on one page are a bit "busy". I would
also define a background color for all pages that is lighter
than the dark gray - I'd make it closer to the background
image that loads next.

I like the use of color on Musical Notes page, perhaps you
could add a bit more color to other pages?

"What We Offer" page: An awful lot of different fonts for
one page. There is a major code problem with your Bible
Search. Form looks fine in MEI (did not actually try it
out), but there is no form and I think your source code is
showing in NS.
Major difference in NS4.7, the "Visitors from Aug. 20, 1999"
is showing on two lines and the lines overlap - it looks
fine in MIE5.

Page "More About Us", near bottom you have an animated GIF.
In NS4.7 it shows a border that is not present in MIE.

> 2.  Graphics placement and content.

Home Page: In NS4.7, your divider lines are not navy, and
the weight of last one appears to be the same as others, but
longer length. I personally think you have too many lines. I
noticed you used three or four different kinds of dividers
throughout your site - would look more "together" if you
were more consistent.

> 3.  Ease of navigation

Navigation works fine, but does not look as well as it
could. You might want to redesign buttons to be all the same
size, with same size lettering on them.

> 4.  How does the site look using other browsers besides
> MSIE?
