Hello,

The page loaded quickly, which surprised me. I was expecting to be 
going to Germany, not Compuserve somewhere in the U.S.A.

Are you allowed to have directories on Compuserve? If you are you 
could create an English and a German directory. Then give visitors a 
choice of which they want to see. Maybe a small link at the top of 
each page that says "German" or "English". The pages will look less 
crowded since I ignored the German parts on the page.

You've got a DocType and Meta keywords! Great! Now just validate your 
pages and you'll be in great shape. For more information visit 
http://www.hwg.org/resources/useful.html#2.0 .

On the ziefle_e.htm page, go ahead and put the link in the text on 
the right as well as letting us know which link on the left to click. 


The upaway.gif image (on ziefle_e.htm) was broken.

The pages look clean. For having two languages on most of them, they 
were easy to read. But I'd probably still split them into two pages. 

Viewed with Netscape Communicator 4.0, Windows 95, Pentium-133,
16MB RAM, 33.6 modem, 1024x768x256 color, Java/Javascript turned off.

I hope this helps. Michael
