You have a great start but your graphic pics are too large and take way to long to load. The arial photo is a whopping 176,892. Try getting that down around 10,000.

Also the cell with the scrolling text is longer than the cell above it. Make them both the same size for a more uniform look. :)

Hi! Could the top animated graphic be a little less large? It was giving me a headache looking at the page!! Yes, I'd agree to make the scrolling cell the same width as the rest of the page for uniformity. I actually think that scrolling text could be about 12 pt and still be effective & noticed....if all that top stuff was smaller more of your actual tennis pics would be viewable.

The bottom two links on the left Navigation menu are a differnt font. Using the same one as the links above make things more uniform also.

Its looking real good for your first site. Keep it up!

Hi Ang,

I like your site! I am a senior tennis player and think we need more tennis related sites to visit. You can go to a web site like netmechanic or adobe and optimize your photos, so they load faster. I don't care for the flashing header. It's distracting. maybe you could not have it not loop after the first few animation cycles. Good Luck!

The site is looking good. It's a great start to many more websites!

I agree 100% with what everyone else has said so far. Here are my thoughts: on the About Us page, there is no padding or space between the text and the navigation border. It makes is slightly difficult to read.

Also, the Ticket Info page scrolls horizontally on a 800x600 screen. It's the only page to do that. Finally, on the 2001 Tourny page, it's a cool effect to have the pics slide in, but I almost left because I didn't see anything on the page. I can imagine that you may lose some visitors on that page for that reason.

Like I said, it's looking really good and with all of these minor changes you'll have a world-class site!

Good luck,

Dan
