Looks ok, The first page scales nice, except for the header image. All other pages I looked at didn't scale though. Fix that and it should be fine. Very, very blue my son would love it.

I agree with jsscart, the top image does scale kinda oddly .. I have my screen set at 1600x1200, it starts to look kinda odd at that.

Unlike jsscart, I don't know if I can take all the blue, it is just too much.

Consider lining up the right edge of the header, with the right edge of the body.. maybe not .. i'm still stuck on the blue assult :P

Anyway, good luck with it.

oh .. change the browser size and the header image resizes, if you make the window really big or small, the image starts to gain a lot of artifacts .. here's some info on artifacts: http://www.dpreview.com/learn/?/key=artifacts

That looks a lot better! Though your code is horrid! You NEED to use CSS!

You also have run amok with HEAD, BODY, and HTML tags. You should only have one set of each of these.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<!-- head stuff -->
</head>
<body>
<!-- body stuff -->
</html>


I'm pretty bored, here's a comp for you, if you want to use some of this, feel free.. I'll try to leave it up for a few days, for you.

http://68.106.115.58:8080/trowbridge-wiltshire.html

I didn't include any of the mouseover stuff, but I prefer this color scheme! This should also get you going on using the <STYLE> tags.

Anyway, it's really early in the morning here, so I'm going to bed. If you need any more help, feel free to ask. I usually troll the HTML Programming Forum, if you want to post there or send me a Private Message OR send me an instant message, I have several services listed in my profile.

My real name is Paul, btw!
