This is (almost) my first CSS effort. I would appreciate any
comments. It's still in mock-up at this free site.
I want to have a simple easy to read personal page with a good menu to
links.
I like the background color and the text is OK, but I am not enough
of an artist to figure out what color or borders I should do with the
links. I tried green, but it was too garish. Would another shade
of brown help ? Or should I go with an entirely new color ?
Aalignment higher or lower ?
Thanks.

You need to pay more attention as to what css actually is. Its supposed to
seperate the presentation from the content. With that in mind, this line is
just wrong:
<div align="center"><font size="4" face="georgia" color="#792700">
<h2>Background</h2></div> .
Your font information should be described in your CSS file. If you want to
have it apply only to the H2 tag here then it would be:
H2
{font-size:125%;
font-family:georgia;
color="#792700";}

I also didn't mention line spacing, padding, margins, line height.......
It was just a nudge in the right direction
