General appearance:
It certainly looks quite good in Moz1.1a/Linux at 1171x950[0]. This
doesn't: "Best viewed at 1024 x 768 with IE 5.5 or higher", but I'm
sure you're smart enough to remove that eventually.
The font looks rather small in Opera5/Linux, especially because it
appears as Times New Roman.
It looks pretty good in Konqueror, but not as good as in Moz.
A shot of how it looks in Dillo would probably cause you to collapse
in horror.
Accessibility:
The dark grey text on a dark grey background for your "submit" button
may be a *little* bit hard to read for some people :-).
ALT text, FFS! Careful, or I'll add you to the list of people who
should be forced to use naught but Lynx for a month[1].
The links on the right-hand side (the long ones with huge underlines)
could be rather difficult to read for some people, especially if the
font-size is too small.
Usability:
Apart from the right-hand side's links, there's no way to distinguish
links from normal text. Bad!
[0] Note that I've got Mozilla set with a minimum font-size of 12px and
I've forced it to use Helvetica in all circumstances.
[1] No, that's not a "punishment" thing. I use Lynx a lot - and enjoy
it. Rather, it's a "learning experience"-type thing. Find out what
those of us who use a "real" browser have to go through whenever
someone forgets we exist :-).
HTH, HAND
