I put together a simple (primitive) site to show some of my bowls. I
would appreciate any and all comments. Please, be brutally honest.


Feedback on the site:


Further::

I looked more closely at your source code. I see you're defining each
image as "class=image", which is good, but the class definition is
mainly a 1 pixel border. Then, when you code the image, you add a
border=0 command. WTF? It almost looks like the border=0 was an add on
or afterthought. In any event, the 0 should be enclosed in quotes.


I see you are using the "title" attribute in the a (anchor)
commands, which is great, but you still need the "alt" in the img
command. I would actually put both the "alt" and the "title" in the
img string.


In the head part of your code, you specify the title as "WRK".
WTF? The title should be a descriptive of you webpage (it's the
content that is displayed in the top bar of the UA).



Also in the head (and everywhere else), almost all arguments should
be enclosed in quotes. Your line:
link href="res/styles.css" rel=stylesheet

should be:
link href="res/styles.css" rel="stylesheet"



In your style sheet, you have defined class=index using three lines of
"margin" commands. Those can be combined for ease of coding and
rendering thusly: margin:0 2 0; " You can specify all four sides of
the object in the order: top, right, bottom, left. If you only specify
one parameter, it applies to the entire object. If you only specify
two parameters, it applies to the top and both left and right margins.
If you only specify three parameters, it applies to the top, both left
and right, and bottom margins. Quite a powerful capability.
