Jennifer,

A grammar, not design, tip:

"Working Together Towards Your Success"

should read -

"Working Together Toward Your Success"

Otherwise, pretty good effort :)

Larry - just curious from the English English grammar point of view - in my oxford dictionary i have toward/towards as a preposition and either can be used - how is it in American English?

dictionary.com gives
quote:

Usage Note: Some critics have tried to discern a semantic distinction between toward and towards, but the difference is entirely dialectal. Toward is more common in American English; towards is the predominant form in British English.

the business card (top one) would be better and smaller as a gif as it is only text with a limited colour palette

i don't like the navigation at the bottom of the page why not under the header?

Congratulations!

The site has some consistency, which is good.

One comment for now... in the footer you have these links:
"About Us" & "Who we are" - two such pages seem bit superfluous I think.

Keep progressing:)

Well done to you. It's good to see someone making the effort. Now sit back and have a stiff drink, put your feet up and relax.

As soon as you've fixed all the suggestions on here you've then got to revalidate all over again. :)

Yes, and then of course after you've made a few minor alterations to get it all to revalidate again that will in turn lead to some more suggestions of how you could do it all better and .... :)

Exactly! And I can absolutely positively guarantee that the one time you don't bother to check your site after you've made changes will be the time when it goes invalid. This has happened to me more than once and is more than a little embarrassing especially if it's your homepage and you're a web designer! *sigh*
