Really nice site! wish i could understand it though! also really like your photos aswell, norway looks like a beautiful place would love to go there some day!

nice site, all works well and it looks good as well! well done! also the "apple bottoms" model - stunning!

less is more is certaintly the case, yet i still think your missing something, can't put my finger on it! needs something that makes the site pop out at you abit more, gets you interested if you see where i'm coming from? Good job, almost there!

now that has to be one of the most refreshing sites i've come across for a while, i really like it! especially the little professor dude with the moving stick nice feature! Keep up the good work!

Not a bad looking site right for starters there are 44 errors in the coding (check here) they only look like minor issues though, it takes a while to get your website up in the listings, one thing that helps which i noticed you havn''t done is to add keywords into the "alt" tags of the images. I'm not an expert at SEO but if im correct google takes a few weeks to index your site, so changing your keywords alot would not be beneficial. Also i find Google Analytics is really helpful for tracking your hits and seeing where they come from. now onto the design side of things, i really like the header and the navigation. Get rid of the horrible default link colour! (blue). The images at the bottom are nice, but some are to dark and don't quite look right to me, trying adding a border to them or something they just make the bottom part of the site look flat. But overall good job!

first thing that came to mind was... GRADIENT OVERLOAD! just got to many gradients on the page it looks abit messy, the headers on the boxes are horrible and don't match the colour theme, try getting rid of the gradient behind the headers and reduce the font size of them. also i don't like the way it suddenly goes green at the bottom? just seems random and out of place to me? and lastly as 'final' said tables are a no no, they aren't search engine friendly and makes for messy coding. Try looking for some tutorials on how to use DIVs. Like the initial concept though, your on the right track, background image is great! same with the banner i like that too just your content doesn't go with it, seems like you got the inital layout done then got lazy with design of the content. good work

i really like the theme your working with here its really nice, again the first thing i noticed was the big yellow block seems really out of place and a bit big for a footer in my opinion. I would like to see it without the yellow background and just the type in a suttle white colour? good work and good luck

always amazes me how a packet of rizla can connect people in such a way, i don't think i've met a designer who doesn't have a packet of rizla on them

now i got to say im loving this site! very good looking! yeah i can see the jagged lines aswell running windows xp with FF 3.5 beta 4 (also the rizla packet is a real nice touch didn't notice it first time i looked!)

Well when i went out for lunch there is a beautiful little lake next to where i park, and i have my camera in my car waiting for a nice day to take photos. Really crap weather but when i got back from lunch there was a small breakthrough of sun so i decided to take some photos this is probably the best one out the lot i took, i'm no a photographer but i want to get good at taking photos. i played about with the brightness/contrast abit on PS. what do you think?

Hi Guys, I asked you to review this site when i first finished it back in september, its had a few small changes since (most notably the main banner). This site was made for the company i actually work for, so basically i spend a lot of time looking at it and its been very sucessful for us, we get normally atleast one quotation request a day at the moment, and up until a few months ago (when the recession hit and most marketing was put on held) we where getting 80-100 visits a day (i believe for the market that this website is for i.e the self build market that is quite good) but recently its dropped to around 40-70 a day (quotations still coming through as much though). Basically i'm abit bored of the site now and i was thinking of doing a re-design but everytime i try to think "how can i make this site better" i cant come up with anything because in my eyes it pretty much dead on. I think it looks good, its easy to navigate and understand. but then i have a biased view i created it after all. so what i want is a couple fresh pair of eyes to have a look at it and throw some suggestions my way on how to improve from it! Linky

i hear that, at the moment its all about having high contrast, sometimes abit of skream!, rusko and caspa! oh and when im designing bob marley goes down a treat!

Hi peeps the marketing co-ordinator sprung on me today that he'd like a photo gallery on our website since he took alot of pictures at the recent H&R show at ExCel this pass weekend. my question is how would i make a good looking one? my first thoughts are a flash one, but no my operations manager doesn't want to use flash because of compatibility issues (really?! who doesnt have flash now days!!) so i guess its going to be PHP or JS? basicaly i want a thumbnails along the top with arrows either side to scroll through the thumb nails, and when you click a image it brings it up nice and big below, would be on www.chelmerheating.co.uk (without the boxes that hold the current content i'll just use the white background and a border on the images) so yeah basically i don't know PHP or JS enough to make one myelf (infact i know very little) so if someone could point me in the right direction of a decent script or program that can do this for me would be great (p.s sorry for bad spelling and grammer)

Hey i've been looking at form builders for my companys website, i've found this site and was wondering if anyone here had used it? or know of it? it looks like it will do exactly what i need it to do just not sure? cheers p.s sorry if this is in the wrong area

hi guys, i've just finished and upload my first professional website for a company i work for. let me know what you think Storewell

Hi there im having a problem, i'm pretty sure i know whats causing it just not where the problem is, if you get me? basically take a look at this page http://www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS/ufh.html if you try to click the "more info.." link in the control systems box, you cant. i believe this might be padding or marging overlapping on this? but i cant see no padding or margin anywhere? the css is at http://www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS/main.css thanks in advance

i like it think its sexy although i think i might stick with FF for now! also is this chrome thats spell checking my text as im typing it this second or the website? because i've never noticed it before on here? and if it is chrome then i'm impressed!

4) the W3C Validator image is horrible best off replacing it with tiny text saying "html" (or xhtml ect)

aah i seeeee thanks dizi

aaah my bad n00b error i copied the address of the local file!! site root Dizi thats what ive done except ive added another couple <ul>'s in the <li>'s and it doesn't validate

hi there i've made a list on my site root like this... site root now as you can see its got lists insides lists, but this isn't valid markup, so i was wondering how do i get the same effect but validated?? cheers

thanks i feel like we are getting somewhere now ive sorted out the container box and it fits nicely now. it does look like the png hack is doing something to my layout, as you can see below if you compare the too pages thanks for all your help so far and future http://www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS/index2.html - without the png hack http://www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS/index2.html - with the png hack

hi thanks yeah that sort of fixed my transparency issue but has also caused some more problems, i have a feeling that a png hack isn't going to work for me i'm afraid. what other options would you suggest? heres what your hack done thanks alot EDIT : also i've noticed not every transparent png is effected in ie6 :S why is this? (for example the background image of the header of the longer boxes)

hi i'm having some browser issues...guess which browser is the issue? you got it IE6 erm i know one the main problems is png transparency and i've been looking into png hacks but they sound like they could mess my site up even more some i'm pretty hesitant about using one. www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS is the site www.carl-robinson.co.uk/CHS/main.css is the CSS if you could tell me where i've gone wrong here that'd be grand cheers

haha cheers i noticed that after myself! got it working but i've decided against it because to many people use bloody ie6 cheers anyways ive saved the script might come in useful
