Really nice job. Well done.
Please take my comments with a grain of salt as I mostly listen to learn on
this list. This is a new area for me that I need to learn quickly ( the
basics anyway) as I have a few projects comming up where this data will be
invaluable.
1. Accessibility issues:
- scalable fonts
- background color selection
- text browser accessible
Fonts are not scaleable but no one is doing this yet at least from what I have
seen other then some demos
Background color selection makes it really hard to access for the visualy
impaired, then again target audience needs to be considered
Text browser accessible...really nice. Even the tables render
For other compliance standards see w3c.
2. Sizing issues:
Header graphic
Header graphic...is static. Not really an issue until you expand the browser
window bast the designated width. Then it looks kinda funki..:) I am not
sure what the best pratice is yet. Other may offer more commentary.
Content length
>From what I have been reading and researching Im starting to agree that
content such as in the center column should be of a max length relative to
the overal page design, with links to the next section. From a UI and
usability prespective it seems to work better.
Hope that helps
