If people could just give a little feedback as to what they think of the current progress (obviously still very much in alpha stage, only one page etc):

Zefram and blueice: Many thanks for the kind comments. I'm just doing a little work on the design still to address the concerns of some on other forums that there is too much open white space, but other than that I think I'll get on and put some content in. Thanks for your input, and I'm always willing to take on new sites blueice :)

Ah yes, sorry, I'm currently on a new version of the site now (I've updated the links now):

I've still got a little issue with the menu. Basically, someone on another forum wanted it text based, but I still wanted it in a specific font. Therefore I have embedded the font for IE browsers, but am still working on the image rollover menu for other browsers. I have the images, but the rollover effects are encountering JS conflicts.

I've tried to tackle the issue of white space - I don't know what you think of it, comments are welcome.

sick, only thing i have to ask is what the third circle next to the maximize minize is for?

otherwise very very nice site

Hehe, I figured just two circles looked a little stupid, so I just put three. I did have a plan for what the third would do... heck, I even created the maps for them. But for the life of me, I can't remember what lol.

I suppose what I could do is restrict the minimise/maximise to one dual-use button, and have the other two for font size +/-... but then you'd really want to have that command for the whole page, even though most pages would only have one content box anyway. Unless I have the text +/- buttons in each window controlling the font size for the whole page, but that's a little weird.

Ah, I just remembered. They were going to be to open a printable version of that box. I'll try and sort that out soon before I forget again.

Thanks for the comments in54n3
