hello everyone,
as you can probably tell, im new to this board.
some of you may recognize me from the Eyeball Design Forums.
my site, Pogbird.com v3, needs review.
feel free to add any c&c.
(only home and about pages work, i dont want to finish it then ask for criticism,
i would rather build and fix at once) <-- talk about a run-on sentence.
thanks

I just have one thing to say before I fall asleep at my keyboard.

You should change the color of your hyperlinks so that they don't look like the other text.
...or maybe I am just too tired to see the contrast...*wakes up*...wait a minute! How could I have been typing while I was asleep?

Hi, Ideal! I just had a quick look. It looks well, I reckon. All I can say is following:

1. A lot of inline formatting using table.
May I ask why you did not use CSS? I am learning CSS now. More and more I am aware of that greatness.

2.What is this font size? Seem to me pretty tough on my eyes.

Yup, CSS would be a nice solution for this site.

I'll also echo jdauie's comments about the link colour (at least the one for your email address)...

A couple of other things, mint green and pale orange == bad. Unless your completly sold on those colours I think you could find a much nicer combo. Furthermore the header image seems quite grainy and looks a little too oversaturated.

With that nice sparse design, having bold text like that is really killing it. That with a <font size="1"> is just asking for your content to be completly un-reabable on certain browsers. Use bold to draw attention to things, use colour to do the same thing, like your text links for example. =)

You should also play with some biger margins and line heights to better fit your design. Nice big margins for the main content type with a line height of around 1.6 to 2 times the pixel height of the type face should work wonders.

Oh um yeah, your code is a mess! From this day forth CSS is your new best friend. Learn it, love it, you'll thank me later. =)

Anyways, that's my 0.2
