Please tell me what you think of my layout [here](http://members.home.nl/a.kreijveldloo/index.html). Don’t mind the menu, it will be changed. Just tell me what you think of the layout and colors. ---

I can see the site fine. It looks good. It will be easier to comment on when you get the content added. I like the blue colours. All the best. ---

The text on the buttons is very hard to read. Also, the preloader took a while to show up here. ---

[http://www32.brinkster.com/b3site/New/index.html](http://www32.brinkster.com/b3site/New/index.html) That is a working link. You need to paste it in you browser bar. Don’t mind the ad on the background. ---

The layout is pretty good. I think the way the red writing is done, it makes it look out of place in terms of looks compared to the rest of your design. The moving menu is highly annoying though. Since you use a XHTML 1.0 Trans dtd, you’ll want to go validate your code. Here’s a link to help validate your object tag. Hint, you’ll probably want to switch to a HTML 4.01 Trans dtd because of the fact that brinkster doesn’t know where to put it’s own code.

\ Incase you hadn’t noticed, that’s the first line on your page. It tells the browser that you coded your site using XHTML 1.0 Transitional and it provides the link to the dtd which defines the rules for that version of markup. I was just pointing out that you coded your page incorrectly for using that dtd. I already made comments about your design, so this was more of a FYI. ---

I dont like the round menus getting flat two early; they aren’t rounded right on the top. Since I can’t comment on the menu either it’s kind of hard to say anything because there isn’t much to talk about. The colors are ok if you like them, and I like the contrast between neat blue menus and bloody red text, but I don’t know how the background images are gonna look when there’s text on top of them. just my ¥2… ---
