goodwin gave it




on 23rd Oct 2010 and said:First impressions: a very attractive design, and some nice CSS3 treats.
You're using @font-face to embed the Museo typeface, which is nice, but bear in mind that the exljbris EULA says:
If the font is a free font ($0.00 license fee), you may use this font for Font-Face embedding, but only if you put a link to www.exljbris.nl on your page and/or put this notice /* A font by Jos Buivenga (exljbris) -> www.exljbris.com */ in your CSS file as near as possible to the piece of code that declares the Font-Face embedding of this font.
It may be worth using something like Typekit, which allows you to easily embed fonts, and offers Museo for free. (There are many such services.) I understand that the Typekit fonts are specially optimised for the web, so more legible at small sizes.
The logo is big, and I don't have a problem with that. I do have a problem with it jerking when a cursor hovers over it, which slightly suggests that it is a link. It isn't a link, but wouldn't it be nice if it was? While you're at it, I feel that the target area could be a bit smaller, closer in relative size to the horizontal navigation bar below. As it is, the hover effect kicks in about when the cursor is about 100 pixels away from the edge of the logo itself.
Some of the contact forms use JavaScript to remove the label (such as "Name") when the box is clicked in. This is fantastic, but you have forgotten to add this functionality to certain boxes, such as "Subject" on your "Contact" page. (With your blog comments form, it hasn't been applied to "http://", which makes perfect sense, of course.)
Sticking with the contact form, it's good that you have provided your email address, but a shame that it's not a mailto link. I suggest using an email address encoder, to prevent spam - the Hivelogic one is good, but JavaScript-free ones exist too. At present, although not a link, your email address is vulnerable to being easily harvested by robots.
Given that you offer website validation as a service, it's alarming that the site doesn't validate. There are no fundamental big problems, but it could do with being fixed.
I sound quite critical, but I'm otherwise impressed - it just seems most efficient to focus on areas for improvement. I hope that's OK.
