I just redesigned my business site, check it out. I'm looking for helpful reviews from other designers because I've been staring at it for too long.

Firstly, fixed width above approx 770 - does not display correctly in a window 800 by 600. Hence the horizontal scroll bar comes on.

Initially all the colouring did not appear. Something wrong with the way it starts up.

I printed one page. It was clipped at the right side. Including the bible quote and the date. Are other people having this problem? I have a HP Laserjet 2100.

Thanks, I appreciate the reviews.

I'm looking into the color problem but haven't been able to duplicate your error... maybe there was a bandwidth issue at the time you viewed the page. The color and images show up fine for me each time I refresh.

I didn't really design the site to be printed, but it's interesting that you tried... I really never thought of doing that.

You brought up a point that I debated for a while... I made my decision to design this page for 1024x768 resolution for a couple of reasons, but mostly because the majority (approx. 58% (http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp)) of Internet users have this setting. I've found it's difficult to make everyone happy on this issue. I'll consider decreasing the fixed width so that it will fit without a scrollbar on your 800x600 screen resolution... maybe for the next redesign. But for now, I like the full-screen effect.

Thanks again!

My biggest complaint is your use of tables. Some non-layout code could also be cleaned up. No complaints about the design, though.
