Your site is very nicely done, especially for a first-timer. :-)

There are some things I would like to suggest, though, beginning with your splash page. If someone clicked on your site and wasn't watching it load, they would see no obvious way to enter your site. Many poo-poo splash pages, too, as an added "click" to get to the meat of your site. Search engines do not like them, either, as they will be searching for text.

The picture on the About page was positioned with absolute positioning, which NN doesn't read. (Well, it does, but not the way FP writes it.) If you need help correcting this, let us know. Also on the About page, you have a questioning sentence without a question mark.

Are Lithography and Engraving exactly the same thing?

I would add a line of textual navigation at the bottom of each page, as well as an e-mail address or phone number.

You need to add alternative text for all your graphics, including your buttons. Right click the graphic > select Picture Properties > General tab > Alternative Representations...Text > Type in a concise description.

The page titles need to be more descriptive and you need to add keyword and description meta tags.

Best of luck with it!!!

Hi,

I'd go along with Sandy - some good points. One other thing I'd change is the font colour - I think a very light yellow (FFFFCC) or light green is easier to read on a black background.

Best of luck with it.

Cheers
Andy
