Re: Website Appraisal

Hey Anthony,

Nice work on the graphics and I think the theme of your site is displayed
appropriately. It really grabs your attention.  (After it finishes loading)

 I find it really slow. Slow on the start-up and I lost interest in it
quickly. I even had enough time to setup this e-mail in the time it took to
load up. (I'm on cable) There was no problems with viewing it. (viewing @
1024x768). But once it did load in was really impressive.

The navigation system is small and might be hard to read for people with
poor vision. The site doesn't seem to take into consideration universal
accessibility. Maybe the accessibility guidelines from the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C) should be taken into consideration when designing the site.
(http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/WD-UAAG10-20010113/) The back and forward buttons
aren't taken into consideration either. The flash slows down the use of
these.

One last thing. Where's your doctype tags in the HTML files?

"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless
of disability is an essential aspect."
