I like the design, it is very clean. I can see your images load. After inspecting you use large images that you then resize. You should use a smaller image to increase performance.

Decided to stick to French. I'm focusing the local businesses.

I just updated my website at http://www.vchrisstudio.com/. What do you guys think? Does anyone have a version of IE8 non emulated? Can you test and let me know.

You're probably right about the header size once the scrolling has begun especially on a mobile device, I think it should be shrunken. I'm in the the process of changing the layout again. I'm thinking of switching to a one page layout with a bit less text. I've decided to focus on microsites, basically local small business and individuals websites. I'm a one man team so I can't created large time intensive web applications and websites, it'll take me months. I hate creating websites for myself, I'm a tough client. I'm thinking creating website packages is better for business since clients can have an idea of how much it will cost them all included. The only thing I'm having trouble with is getting enough clients. Maybe a blog on newbie stuff would help my Google ranking.

I've been in the business for close to 10 years and re-designed the site a few times. I'd like to know as a perspective client what do you think of my site? (where/how things are places, pages, text) http://vchrisstudio.com/ Thanks

I've updated my website a bit. Users can now leave comments.

I'm redesigning my website. It was a bit too dark for some. Here's a sample of what I'm working on. I'm open to feedback.2nd sample

I get way too much :)Don't play with me! I've killed for a lot less

This was in Feb this year... I figured it out!

Done. Let me know if there is any issues in IE6. I just need to fix the breadcrumb now... Oh yes and let me know if the load time has been reduced.I also noticed something weird not related to the nav. It seems when you view the first website, deep coding (big planet and blue theme), in FF it's fine but in IE there's some white spots over the image. I resaved the image so it can't be that. Something must be adding these shapes...

Here is a test page with the new navigation. I haven't included the style change to it yet. Works awesome! I should have it setup on the whole set some time this week.http://www.vchris.net/contact/contacttest_e.php

Nice criticism, some of those things are funny lolI've been meaning to fix some of those things. Thanks for pointing some of these out.

Thanks for you feedback, I appreciate! :)The sliding panel was a pain but I got it working in all browsers correctly. I'll look into the css validation link. I know that w3c changed their validation page since so that might have something to do with it.

What if my li are inline. Block would cause to be one underneath the other.

It doesn't seem like I'm able to set a width and height for an li element. So when display:none; is set, the li is not visible, including the background image.

Interesting... So basically I have text in the a element but it's not displayed but the a element is the same size as the <li>.

What if I add a background image (arrow) to my a element. Would it load the arrow in front of the button?

I don't really want to make the text on the buttons just text. Is there a way I could make only the arrow appear on the button instead of loading the same button but with the arrow?

but then how could they be clickable?

Thank you for your suggestions.I wanted to use :hover instead of js and only have the arrow appear on hover but didn't find a way to do it. I know I can change background image with css but I need the image to be clickable... If you know of a way please let me know.

Updates are done.http://www.vchris.net/Feel free to leave a feedback.

Don't worry about that. I'm just creating 2 other styles (R,G,B ).

[ Solved ]I got the direction working pretty well now.The thing is I want an image to be the link to slide the div. I want the image to be on the left border of the div so when it's closed you only see the image (like a tab) and when you click it, it opens the div and it slides with it. I thought the simplest way was to include the image in the sliding div except seems like the way this is coded that anything that's inside the div will be hidden when closed.PHP: http://www.vchris.net/about/abouttest_e.phpJS: http://www.vchris.net/about/animatedcollapse.jsIf you got some skill in JS and think there's a way to fix this, let me know. I've been working on this for a couple hours and can't find a way to do it. I've already tried adding 50px to the width but doesn't seem to work.
