Samuria - what kind of comments are you looking for? and for what sites? all of them? general comments?
I'll be honets about http://www.janwright.co.uk/wc/ - I dont really like the design, layout or
functionality.

The text on the home page is very difficult to read.
The overall style is very incosistent.
There is no 1 style to any of it.
It feels slapped together without any vision.
Not sure why there's a "Help" section - the site couldn't be any simpler - very few sections with
very little interactivity, hard for the casual web surfer to get confused here.
I don't particularly like all the scrolling that needs to be done to read/see everything.

But then again, it is what it is - and if it helps your students then all is good.
Are you looking for any specific feedback? load times perhaps? everything loaded and took no more
than 5-10 seconds here on broadband.

The opening page is realy the start and I just used Flashpaper as a quick short
term fix. The reson for the help is Flashpaper can go full screen, be searched
etc if you dont know this the help is usefull.

I will change the flashpages in the end design. I can do technical things in
flash /html etc but I am not very good at design as I go for a minimum look as
a rule. I thought the temple background with moving water was clever and the
border nice with a unusual middle box. Can you explian what is wrong with the
design and why there is no style? Both sites have the same basic idea. One
problem is as the pages need a lot of pics its hard to put them in a small
space hence the scroll and flashpaper.

I realy wanted the flashpaper to have a clear background so you could see the
water move like the first page but no one knows how to do it.
