64113 2002-07-23 06:12:00 Nice clean site, as someone else said.

I would suggest that you decrease the space between headings, eg contacts, draw, etc and the paragraph, and increase the space between the paragraphs. In other words swap the spaces around. Removing the break might be enough, otherwise you might have to alter the formatting a little.

Spam harvester bots are very good at their job so you might want to check with your contacts whether they want to provide an alternative address specially for your page. Otherwise it won't be too long before their inboxes get flooded with junk. Take it from me, I know.

Other than that, your site will benefit from some cricket-related images or your club's logo or whatever.

Purple - what purple - come to think of it what is purple?
Damn - colourblind, forgot!

Remember us 12% minority red/green deficient people. Purple looks like blue...<hmm..what does blue look like..>

I like the cleanliness of the site.

64115 2002-07-23 09:18:00 Out of interest godfather, if you can't see red or green colours, what do they look like to you? Are they black or invisible?!

Heck, what does grass look like to you? And how do you get on at traffic lights?? :O

I've never come across a colourblind person before. Or not someone who has admitted to being one anyway.

64116 2002-07-23 10:01:00 traffic lights....no problem...let me see....oh yes, red is on the TOP

seriously though, a red traffic light looks red. A green one looks closer to white. Grass is...grass, if its green or brown I wouldn't know, brown could be a darker green for all I know.

Purple looks like blue, sometimes with a "flourescent" quality that will alert me to the idea its not blue.

Yellow looks like yellow, unless its a lime green when it looks like yellow..

I cannot recognise the colours, I have no idea what they are meant to look like but they are different to each other.

Liken it to being with someone speaking erdu,they are talking, the words sound different but you cannot recognise them..(or reading this forum some times...)

If you want a laugh, I am also fully qualified in colour tv......(but never worked in the field)

64117 2002-07-23 11:30:00 Thanks Elwin

They are now on the site (I've even put them in as links that pop-up)

:D

64118 2002-07-23 11:33:00 Good comments. thanks Susan

I will work on the spaces at my next opportunity (which could now be days away!)

&

I will check with the *contacts* about spam avoidance.

Some images will come later (but really would like to limit them to pictures of the kids succeeding)

64119 2002-07-23 11:49:00 Cool.

However the scripts are unnecessary, and weigh things down. Don't spoil the 'cleanliness'!

Suggestion:
Replace elsdon (#) with elsdon (elsdon.html) Much tidier, doesn't stretch the images out of proportion, and works across all platforms. :)

Ain't this fun! :D
