Hello Bobbi!  I viewed your page through:

NN4.0 and MSIE 3.0
1024X748 res, 256 color
800X600 and 640X480 res
(both 256 and 16 mil colors)
17-inch monitor


Mmm, the red against white is pretty loud, and the changes of color detract
from a "unified" theme.  There's also a large amount of white space at the
bottom of your page that seems pretty unneccesary.

On your Solar Brite page, the light bulb mouseovers are a GREAT affect, but
the blinking bulb is sort of distracting. Also, the Solar Brite symbols
(the oval with Solar Brite in the center) appear to be cut off.

The Magenetech page is well done, except I don't have a fondness for
blinking text (quite a few people don't).  The same "urgent" affect could
be achieved by putting "Please Note" in bold or capitol red lettering, the
way "Counter Indicated" is.  

Also (more personal opinion) I think the image map is great; it has
potential for WONDERFUL mouseover affects (you can e-mail me if you're
curious about this idea).

Okay, enough from me!
Ely
