Can anyone give an opinion on this wee site I done:
www.scottishmusicpromotions.com
And even better, can anyone explain why the piper's bagpipe is rudely chopped off at the top, in Firefox...??

you've got the background image being set twice - in the html tag and in the body tag...
- RustyBadge0
I can't see what you mean Stu... the image of the piper - kilty.gif is only set once....
- weestu0
your first css statement is set as html, body {} and you've set up the background image here - this means that the background image instance will be applied to both the html tag and the body tag (so what you're really seeing is one piper image overlaid on another).
Copy the first statement and set it as your body declaration, set the first statement to be the html declaration and remove the background image properties from one of these. job done!

the blue in the titles is different from that in the bodytext, was it meant that way?
- RustyBadge0
No it wasn't, I am not sure what has went wrong there....

the text rollovers don't seem to be producing the finger cursor

The person that traced that piper is lazy.

sorry should have also said i'm using Safari, OS X 10.4. Dunno why it doesn't change to the finger cursor but it's only doing it on your site.

Come on now Madison, that piper is cool.... it's as detailed as it needs to be....

Drop the piper looks like an after thought, and badly placed.
Your form needs more consideration.
Look at the margin-bottom for your heading tags.
Why the additional blue space on the left and right of the nav, looks like a missing button to me.
Other than that good start, I just generally think you need closer attention to detail
- Trousermouse0
Cheers for the comments, much appreciated.
I will consider your comments about the piper as an afterthought... I kind of like it though!
The blue space on the left and right of the nav is just to centre it (since the logo / header is centred).
- Dancer0
You need to get some nice images in there, add a bit of colour.
on looking at it again, thepiper could work on an opening page but the shadow is really poor, just don't like it on every page, shows a low creative approach.
As for the nav, I do not see your point. If you take the blue away and space out your rollover links more , and perhaps increase the type size a touch. then it will still be centred. At the moment the nav's width is less than the logo.
- Trousermouse0
Why is it bad that the nav width is less than the logo?
- Dancer0
It's not bad. I initially thought you were trying to match the width of the nav to that of your logo, but your not.
