    • Hi there,

      I like the concept. The background image is just a bit too bold for my taste. The map stuff is good but still too viewable so is a bit of a distraction. Make the whole image much lighter/transparent so it it is less distracting.

      Also the sand colour is good to contrast the main items which are on white. When you scroll down the gaps between blocks appear with the white of the map so it is confusing. If the sand colour was extended across the whole image then you would get good contrast between the blocks.

      Hope this helps 8)

    • Thanks David. yeah I spent long and hard agonising over a suitable background. It's not perfect I know but I was quite chuffed with what I did come up with. I'll work on making the changes as suggested.

      What I do struggle with is getting the various modules to have a consistent look across the site... it just seems the fonts are never quite the same, and hence a challenge for someone who is not highly skilled in CSS

    • I'm driving Pajero Sport. That's what you need for Russian winter... and South African summer, I guess. Good luck in your travels.
      P.S. No criticism, sorry, I think it's good.
