Re: Marz Productions

I liked this site! Businesslike, professional, not too much room for
aesthetic suggestions. Since this is a website design page, I'm holding it
to a high standard, so I do have a few niggling comments.

LOOK AND FEEL: The smaller Marz logo, with your tagline underneath and the
logo swirl inbetween the letters has odd white dots where the swirl didn't
reduce in size very well. In fact, most of your text-type graphics have an
aliased look to them. I would fix that, make them a little smoother. I would
suggest putting all the "blurb"-type buttons at the bottom of the front
page. The two-column approach is nice, but the top of the main page forces
horz. scrolling at 640x480. Also, the table layout causes text browsers to
not display it correctly...you get something like:

Portfolio
Contact
Check out sites...
There are many ways...

The flow totally breaks up, so if you want to design for the 1% of the web
that doesn't use a graphical browser, might need to change it. Background is
nice, but -GASP- it's black! Just a joke, based on a thread I
(unfortunately) started on hwg-critique. This may be a little nitpicky, but
most of the graphics have a clip art feel to them. A good clip art feel, but
seem that way nonetheless.

CODING: Taking a look at your source...I'm a little disappointed. No DOCTYPE
is given and you have no META tags in the header. Technically, I think the
JavaScript script is supposed to be in the header, but I'm not sure on that,
since it works just fine under both IE4 and NN4.

Other than these things, a stellar site that could be a model for all web
designers looking to advertise their services.
