Oh, man.

Very nicely done. I'd prefer left aligned or justified text rather than centered. It'd be nice to have links to each individual on the team page, or to a pop-up with their phone, email, mailing address. Overall, excellent - you've really hit on it.

On the home page, consider changing "your" to later in this sentence and putting it as the first of the page text so the viewer won't need to scroll down to see it. This gives a good sense of why I would be interested in A.N.B.:

A.N.B. is a complete sales, service and merchandising group whose primary goal is to maximize your brand distribution and increase market share.

Contact page needs the 800# added.

Sweet!

I just wonder what it would look like if the main table width was set as a percentage. It's just a bit narrow looking at high res.. I normally like the text a bit smaller, but it looks good the way you have it.

You know it looks good if Linda is critiquing the copy aspects of a site.

Thanks for the feedback.

I will present the idea of the text change on the home page. And as far as looking narrow at higher res...they wanted a business card look so thats why it doesn't fit the higher resolutions. Text size has always been kinda important to me too. But I leave it at the default to try and please everyone. I was also thinking of going with a 800X600 size but one of my major pet peeves when viewing web sites is having to side scroll to view the entire page.

That's enough of a rant i suppose...
I have always found this site to be outstanding when I need to learn something.
Thanks again for your comments.

Is it Nola?

If you're showing this off to someone, I'd go for high res, which I viewed this with first. Much less scrolling. Toggle to fullscreen with F11 and you'll have even less. Personally, I like the extra space when this site is viewed with high res.

Stepping down the text size to 10pt polishes it up a bit more, IMHO. Keep in mind that 12pt is just FP's default, not the viewer's. The viewer will have the text size on their browser set larger/smaller as they like it.

What Richard was suggesting on the table is going to percentages, in which you might set the table for 90% of the page width. The left column could be set for a fixed width and the width for the right column cell would be unchecked. If you're interested in trying this, work on an extra copy.

Ok I will give in
Decreased the text size on all the pages. I believe that it also looks better with a smaller sized font.
Also updated "The Team" page and its funny that you should mention Linda that there should be links or pop up info for each team member. I pushed that idea the last time I previewed the site with my client. They apparently don't want any more info than what's there now.

As always, Thanks guys.
