My website version 1

[Chris OBrien]

Hi Guys,

I just uploaded the first draft of my homepage. I'm looking for feedback, etc. Right off the bat, I know it won't view properly on 800x600 monitors, so I need to fix that. Also, the "more" page isn't done, I just wanted to get something online. Please give me some critiques, opinions, etc, so I can make changes. The url is www.chrisobriendesign.com (http://www.chrisobriendesign.com) - Thanks.

In IE6 at 1024x768 there are a couple issues...probably a padding conflict between the "face" css class and the "about" div. Looks like the pads overlap. Maybe knock the "face" class backwards layer-wise
to tuck it under the other element.
Maybe a separate "left" div just for the face, then a "body" div for the content?? Not the only way, but just an idea.

Here it looks like at 1024x768 there is not enough room to accomodate the "main" div with the "first" span class. The 250px rt pad squishes the "first" class and knocks the text to a next line.

FFox doesn't do this! <wink>

Looks good to me on IE7 at 1440x900, I like the blue and white combination and the minimalist (sp?) design

Your problem appears to be in "square" resolutions, I'm guessing you designed on a widescreen monitor?

nice and simple, I like that

try not to let the page follow the width of the page though
set it at a set width (i.e. 800 pixels or some thing close) and center or left of the page
that way it'll help maintain a same look regardless the viewers monitor size (800 or 1024 or what ever)

keep at it!
