these are just my personal opinions, no direct criticism meant. :) though the original font size is too small, i really like the look of the original site. it looks upbeat, positive, and it almost all fits on my standard 800x600 screen size. i personally don't view sites in a resolution any bigger. the colors of the original site aren't exactly what i think of as "lawyer" colors, but the fit together well enough for the most part. the original site looks clean but full. i can get to what i'm looking for (if i could read the menu words) easily. the menus are in logical places to me. in short, i really like it, though the colors could be blended better i think. your site's text is easier to read, but that's really the only thing i like more compared to the original. the color pink is completely not preparing me to see a lawyer site, and i know this is stereotypical (though i'm a girl, so perhaps that excuses me?) but i don't want a girly lawyer. all i see when i view the remake is this *huge* header that takes up literally half of my screen. The other half is taken up by sub headers. where's the information? there are four pages of scrolling to do. the fourth page is all about a tall picture and a worthless (i know you need it, but to me as a viewer it's worthless) disclaimer. the disclaimer alone takes up half of a screen. i wasn't prepared to see a menu on the third page. i didn't even know it was there until i was counting how many pages it was so i could give an accurate count and happened to see it. to me it looks like a quote, not links. the intent combined with the non-standard coloring didn't register for me. on the practice areas part, the links that take up two lines are indistinguishable from the single-line links. in order to tell them apart i had to slowly hover over each one. the linked company name at the top should include the "&" if it's a link. the company name has that "&" in it, and imo so should the link. i hope those were constructive. :) good luck! ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
