Hi all!
I am new to web site building, have read a lot in the last few months and think (or hope) I am slowly getting somewhere. This is one of my first website, and would like to get you opinions. Don't be shy - I can handle serious critics! 2 move 2 australia thanks, ak |

I have nothing to say. Clear design, everything works, lot of content... Good job.

Clean and well-made, and I must admit your site is head and shoulders above the shonky looking "user car salesman" layouts I've seen for other migration help websites.
There's a couple of &'s that should be written as & but otherwise: very good. |

Due to the fixed-width layout you'll get annoying horizontal scrolling in narrow windows. I see no need for that, except to make room for the two large logo/header images. Why not make the images smaller (or allow them to wrap) and let the layout be fluid?
You may also want a better choice of ALT text for the images, such as "2move2australia" or an empty ALT attribute (currently it says "header 2 move 2"). |

Thanks! I thought I had fluid layout, with the width set in 'em' and the width of the images set in %, but obviously I have not checked the image-behaviour properly. I'll work on that one! And also the &'s and ALT for the images will be changed. Thanks again mates, much appreciated. Thanks also for the compliments, makes me feel I am going in the right direction.

Looks real nice. Good job for a beginner! And keep on reading to learn.
One remark: the Google ads at the bottom spill out on the right of the "content box". You might avoid that by starting the ad links on a new line (and while you're at it, style the title of it to better fit your design). You do have some room to do this, as the two lines of your own bottom links have rather some space inbetween them, which you could decrease. |

The site looks really nice. I would improve the logo at the top a little bit, the text looks rather choppy. This also happens on the left with the arrows on site menu and sponsor.
I also notice that on the news page if the window is to narrow the main content gets thrown below the navigation bar. This maybe a IE7 issue as I see it on others sites as well. _________________________ "Insanity is hereditary - you get it from your children."
