Just wondering if I could get some crits on the graphics on my new site.
I am still working on the nav system.
I thought for a change of pace I would use a white background instead of black.

U stole my name I'm also calling my site mindstorm. Posted my loggo months ago, but what tha heck, haven't done anything on i lately.
Som crit on your webdesign, I miss some sort of navigation. Everybody hate to press on the back link to go do a diffrent part of the site. S� if you put the links on the rigt or left side. Like usual buttons. I don't have photoshop in school so I can't show u.
And you'r you can inprove image handeling on your site mutch better. I'll show u some exampels later.

Nice site design. I don't think you should change the layout. I think the uniformity of all the sections works quite well, and I do like the light bg this time over your old site that gave more of a dark and dreary feel. However, i notice when I click on certain links, that the seams between in the top of the graphic and the header or main body cause the image to shrink or grow when changing links. I know you are still working on it, but I just thought I would let ya know, as you are probably aware of it.
Oh , and one more thing. On each section, have links to other sections at the bottom or top, using small icons or text to make the navigation of the site flow better.

Thanks. I have a backup of the graphics on a black background. I thought the white gave it a cleaner look. I plan on having a diffent them for each page. It's still in progress.

Hey Z. I am curious as to what type of browser you are using. Is it Netscape? I may need to optimize the top graphics a bit so the load faster. That may remedy the problem.

Yea. I'm using IE5. It is a very minor problem and perhaps I am being too picky. But I just thought I would bring it to your attention. It may be merely a missing tag in the table where u divided the image slices or something easy to fix. But as I said, it isn't a big thing.
Here's the image
Oh, and here is the first welcome page, notice the difference? maybe?

Thanks for showing me that! I didnt even notice it. I noticed the height was wrong on the other pages. It should be height="163"
I have it as "173"

I think it looks pretty good. I guess the only thing I would say would be to vary it up a little. I like the layout, but it kinda gets old as the only thing changing is the text, and the titles, although, this does make the site load very fast. Your artwork is very good and the graphics look good too. Its just me, but I kinda stick with black bgs, which might look good with what you've got here. Great site though.
