Hi Richard,

Aha, I agree that the form might detract a little from the content but I
think it's more a matter of Art above Form. As an artist and not a
technician, I feel that the design of websites should primarily be designed
to reflect the subject rather than reflect the web designers tastes. In my
case - Whizzy and Whooshy. This is one of the basic precepts of creating
"Art".
I mean do you want - a world of grey efficient formulas - or one of vibrant
unpredictable humanity?

You see, existing like wot i do, not in material form, but as a Godlike
entity cavorting with the Immortals, such things as dynamic drives, IE6's
and 5% error margins are as particles of dust, lost in the Mighty Cosmic
Wind of Truth.

I'm sure there are many areas you could help with though - how to
technically maximise accessability, you know, which servers, metatags etc,
all the dirty web tricks.

So there
lol

  AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

  It's very whizzy (haven't tried it in Mozilla based browsers yet), but
it's very much "form over content".  I've not really looked at the content -
the whizzy bits (Dynamic Drive slidey menus etc) take the focus away from
what you're saying and make people go "Whoooo!  Look at the whizzy things!"

  Sorry an' all that - but from a professional's point of view - lose the
whizzy things, and keep the content concise simple and to the point.  (I've
not looked at it in any other browser other than IE6, but frankly, if it
works in that I wouldn't worry about anything else. When people tell you
"Yes, very nice, but 5% of people don't use Internet Explorer", you reply
"5% isn't significant, 5% is an error margin.")

  If you want a chat about it, feel free to drop me a line.

  Just an idea,

  Cheers,

  Rich.
