haven't heard it - but we better not "chat" in this thread or someone's liable to be "kind" :eek:

hey Andrew - nice site! - just a couple of suggested edits:

Cycleboy is a look at [delete]the[/delete] some of the strange aspects of modern Japan.

"mix up" is typically hyphenated

btw, I'm "convinced" Nick did his best work as a producer :smokin:

Hey thanks for all the input

Currently I have tested my site at 800x600 on netscape 4.7 and 6.2, Opera 5 and 6 (my new toy too), IE 5.5 and 6.0 but I get no scroll here (I had been but I "fixed" it on my end)

Since peach (hehe) and scroll seem to be the issues with this site, and peach is easy to fix, I'm curious what factors beyond screen res and browser affect screen width. From personal experience my Japanese edition ME using IE5.5 definitely displays differently than ENG-98 IE5.5, so I know OS can play a factor. What else can I do to reslove this issue?

Thanks for any ideas/guidance

1) Oh yeah...... that news blog was just a pet project I'm going to scrap it, use the same color scheme as the rest of the site, or get a seperate domain for it. You were right it is out of place. (at least the style was)

2) Pizza text too big; since I have to get root canals and can't go home for xmas, I may have time to rework it!

Thanks Again all of this advice is somewhat "painful" but very very helpful...... just like the old Nick Lowe tune "cruel to be kind (in the right measure)" Thanks!

Andrew

Hi,

two quick points for you, I think the news section looks out of place compared with the rest of the site. no logo different colour scheme etc..

secondly when I play pacman using I.E 5.5 800x600 it is slightly too large vertically for my screen unless I get rid of my toolbars.

Otherwise excellent site.

I Thought it was only Americans that used month/day/year, learn something new everyday

broswers:
IE5 at 800x600 has a slight horziontal scroll bar, looks good
the link "newsblog" under the happenings header could possibly start with a capital

Netscape 4.7 no scroll bar at 800x600, everything lines up good

Opera 6 (new toy ) no scroll bar, but cant get all the images to load, could be me thou

Some pages like the pizza one, the content text is to big compared to the rest of the site.
That top part looks like a waffle, now I'm hungry lol

win98/ie6 here.

I'm getting scroll at "javascript-simulated" 800x600

Ya know, some of those pizzas look pretty good about now - perhaps I should break for lunch!

Hey Disaster Master

Thanks for the comments. It's good to know you aren't getting scroll 800x600 IE6 but I am. Clearly, I was cutting it too close when it came to page width. I had hoped the page would end up without scroll when squished into an "antiquated" (hehe) setup. Obviously, I was wrong and I'll try and fix it. But I'm curious.... what OS are you using?

Thanks
Andrew
