Default Tell Me What You Think...

Hi everyone...

I run Josdan Games, a small "one game" boardgame publishing company. My current web site has slowly evolved over the past year or so, but I feel I need to rework it.

I'd like to get some feedback on the good, the bad, and the ugly for the current site. Any and all comments will be welcomed!

http://www.josdangames.com

Thanks...

Very nicely done site. Is it just HTML or are you using some additional php scripts?

Just some minor discrepancies:
1. In What's New - HostNine is spelled HostHine
2. I feel it's usually better to use a web-based "feedback" or contact form rather than a mailto link.
3. Your logo could use a bit of edge smoothing for the font.

Thanks for the feedback colt45! The site is strictly HTML with just a little JavaScript to assemble the mailto: email address links, and drive the image enlargements and mini-policy windows. It was hand-coded from scratch, no templates or WYSIWYG editors (I'm a former computer programmer). The page layouts are table-based, but conversion to div/css-based layout is high on my to-do list.

Great eyes colt, I completely missed this typo. And, I've put an improved logo in place, looks much better now...thanks for the suggestion!

Yep, I know what you mean. This is a hold-over from my self-hosting, as I could never get FormMail (or Perl) to work on my own web server. So, I settled for the JavaScript method mentioned above. I'll have to reconsider the FormMail option, now that I'm on H9.

Thanks again...
