Design issue opinion

Hi,

If possible can I get a few opinions on a possible design for my website (attached zipped).

Instead of designing a graphic intensive web site that takes quite a while to load I have used HTML tables creatively that loads faster.

There is little content currently.

Thanks

In the future you may want to host your page on a site for easier access. Most people won't download something and extract it.

I did though, and I thought it was quite stupendous. I wasn't expecting that when you said you'd creatively used tables to make your site. It's clean, it's neat, it's original, sleek, futuristic, and well balanced.

One thing you'll want to stay away from is colors that are too close together on the color wheel. You've got white text on yellow and it's overly difficult to read.

G'luck.

Thanks for your kind comments.
I’ll take into consideration the colour factors and host my page on a site when completed.

Wow. Excellent site, very good use of tables for design. The colour scheme is good and a very original layout, i like it. Although on index.html dont have the "Enter....." link go smaller when you mouseover it. I find it irratating and because its text, more often than not when you mouseover the link it flashes from small to big repeatedly. Other than that great site.

Yeah I’m starting to find the Enter… thing very annoying so I am going to remove that.

Thanks for the reminder
