My personal site

I finally got my own site up and presentable to public....

This is the first time I've done something personal like this, so please give me feedback

the writing on your buttons, the colour needs changing

and perhaps your buttons and text needs moving up closer to where it says home

you also have 4 different fonts on your page (logo, buttons, "site menu" and then the other writing)
might be a few too many fonts it doesnt keep the same type of tone all the way through

anyway good site especially since you havnt been doing html for that long

There's a little button that says, "Best viewed with Any Browser". But the site looks pretty broken on Safari / Mac OS X

The HTML doesn't validate:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://b-con.us/

There are fatal errors with the CSS:
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/...&usermedium=all

And I'm seeing PHP errors at the top of the page:

PHP Code:

Actually, I've worked with HTML for a while, I've just never done anything serious.... so making it universally compatable 'n' stuff is basically a new world...

Dang it, you're not the first person to tell me that, but I'm not getting those errors, regardless of when and how I view it.... Plus I have now clue why those errors would even exist, everything's set right.... :s

OK, I gave the site a new shell, hopefully this will fix some of the problems (altho the shoutbox cookie's still don't work

)....
