You forgot to mention the rubish contrast on the text on the left, the way
too big titles of the albums, the really really REALLY terrible spelling...
The totally nutty way the albums are organized - I mean, shouldn't germany
be in europe? And if it deserves its own catagory, why isn't that stated.
Why waste all that space on the left anyway for rubish navigation? it gets
in the way of the photos. less room.
And surely there should be a page-at-a-time option so people don't have to
view all those hundreds of slightly dull rome pictures at once? And whilst
we're at it, some better descriptions would be nice... and although Rome is
in Europe... wasn't it also a holiday?!? Organisation isn't just a word in
the dictionary ya know.
And why is there a huge picture of some fountain in singapore one a page
about Newbury and Dis Ag Soc.... and what on earth is that meant to anyway?
If the full name wouldn't fit on the first page without wrapping didn't that
set alarm bells ringing as to the rubish layout?

Oh yeah... the side nav sucks.... :-)
I threw that page together in a few hours, I like the basic idea, it works
well, but boy are there some thigns to deal with :-) basically it's a site
where I put images I've taken onto for my friends and family to look at, I
intend to put some more pages between my main site and this site saying 'if
you don't know me go away', but I'm not sure how to phrses it yet :-) I may
pasword it, but then I can't say to people I want to look at the pics - hey
go to my website... I'm still mulling on this...

I've heard this being said before... are there some browsers that don't
have a back button? I put the nav in in about... oo.... 3 minutes.... do you
think it shows? :-)
So... my photo site is... questionable.... but, going back to my
original questions, it's ok to have a hard-coded height on a <div> tag? and
no-one knows why you can set right and left values and no width but not top
and bottom values but no height?
Thanks for the feed-back :-) My photo site is on the list of things to
do, just not at the top, but I will fix all the thigns I've noticed, and
you've picked up on, just after some others stuff :-)
Amy K - off to play again :-)
