    www.14thc.com - new international look (the old one was very "american"). Input appreciated, thanks! :)

    looks OK, was very empty with the connection I have, when the images were not yet loaded.

    about the colors:
    The background for Articles does not go with the whole site.
    I think you should use some CSS for your headings

    Ok, I changed the color for the right nav.

    And I have a Google Sitemap, Paul are you reffering to an html one? I don't think the site is that big/complicated for that. Everything is 1 click away.

    Oppinions?

    Your site looks good. A few comments:

    I don't like your lead paragraph. It sounds like a dot-com mission statement. It uses a lot of words but doesn't really tell me anything. Beef up your services page to explain more about what exactly you provide in each area.

    In IE6, the right nav bar overlaps the footer bar on some pages.

    Maybe horizontally align the nav bar with the content.

    Skip the site map. Your nav ad footer already act as one.

    The articles look especially good with good content and use of <h> tags.

    ---

    Good luck with your site,
    Ty

    Thanks! I'll be working the Services page soon. And I guess I'll have to do another round of checks with IE. I use FF so I may miss occasional changes.

    only 1 comment - the colors of the top part of your site is rather dull and the images look as if they have a really low resolution (of which having large header fonts and making them bold doesn't help)...
