    You'll have to ask Martin, (vectis vibe) - I'm clueless!

    Odd - looks fine in IE7/XP here. Rob could I ask a favour - would you look at http://www.charliebrownsdisco.com/kids-rob.php for the same issue?

I think it looks odd when you click on 'Kids & School Discos' and get a picture of a Bride & Groom or Adults Dancing. I would have a fixed 'Kids' picture and a fixed picture for weddings etc.
    The plan is to replace the stock images with Charlie's own pics when he gets some decent ones sorted out over the summer, so each page can have a context-specific slideshow.

    No. It's lean and mean

    In general, it's good. Not sure on the colour scheme with the background.

    Generally I like Charlie, but is it just me or should the navigation buttons be on the left. I don't find it intuitive.

    Sorry to be picky but I'd also call myself Charlie Brown Entertainment not "Brown's" I think it sounds better.

    The background make the whole thing feel dated too me!

    Also Martin. Tranparencys and IE6 dont mix. Might want to use that .htc mod on it. Only use the junk in school but someone might use it else where.

    If so, I think it looks funny having them like that.

    If not, you have a problem!
    It's in IE7, if you're on IE8 hit the compatability mode button at the end of the address bar (see attached) and you should see it as IE7 sees it. Or use Browsershots, IE Tester, Adobe Browser Labs etc. etc...

    Should be easy enough fixed by adding top padding or height to h1 tags, to be safe do it with conditional styling for IE less than 8.

    Overall looks really good. Still don't like the background, though!

    I am torn because I sort of like it and I sort of don't...

    Two things I am clear on though is I don't like the font (Georgia, but then that's just personal taste), and the background would look nice on a Wedding based website but doesn't work for me on a generalist site.

    Flock wallpaper springs to mind...

    Still, far better than anything I could make and infinitely superior to most DJ websites out there.

    At least it doesn't have a twinkling night sky background and dancing girl animated gifs...

    Exit stage left...

    Charlie! You listening? (not my choice btw... just thought I'd make that abundantly clear )

    The design brief explicitly excluded IE6 support to keep costs down. Some might say that's a bit premature, personally I feel that the quicker web designers stop pandering to it, the quicker it'll die.

    I like it

    It will look even better once you replace the stock photos with ones of your own.

    You can always trust Martin to produce an excellent site
    (will this get me a discount on a third site Martin?? )
