Congrats, yamtaa! Good to know there are other serious guys in Kenyan cyberspace.

I noted a couple of things, though… It’s a crime to have a meta tag inside a title. Plus, the name attribute was not defined.

Secondly, you cant use an id on an element more than once. You repeatedly used green1 and a few others. change them to class names instead of ids.

Finally, having align=”right” in the markup is still going against separating markup from styling. It also creates unnecessary divs. Use .green1 { text-align: right } in your stylesheet instead.

Other than that, big ups!

@ Afrowave. You probably are viewing this on a mac. right? I used different fonts just that I was too lazy to download their mac versions, looks different on windows.

This is great work. Another way that you could fix the png problem would be using a script called IE7. It’s a great script, and it fixes not only the png issue, but other css and html issues in IE5, IE6, and IE7.

Very good, Yamtaa. Since we are big on meta, your meta tag is inside the title. So stop using a browser with multiple tabs open.

And the fonts used are AvantGarde for the text below the banner and the rest are Helvetica. (OCD…). This means that if this was a client with branding issues, your head would have been on the block.

I know its not to seriously done, but you never know who is reading.

To enable transparency in png images in i.e 6 and earlier versions use a jquery plugin called ‘png fix’, does that in a jiffy. The easiest way would be by adding the script to the of your pages. Its hosted on jquery.com and code.google.com, pretty neat

Excellent work.

I just got through explaining to a client what the difference between “designing” and “developing” a website are. Even after that, he still went for the cheaper alternative.

I tip my hat to you and to WA for bringing this issue to the light
