Just a quick poll to see what everyone thinks of Raymond Benson's Official site? Raymond and I put in a lot of man hours on working on it and we plan on adding some special features in the futures. I hope everyone enjoys it. So far I've received a ton of positive emails but I thought I'd better get the CB.N opinion (Hey, you guys are important to me!).

Looks great! (Love the interview links.) It's already on my toolbar and will be part of my daily rotation. Nice work, mccartney007.

Hi mccartney007!

Here's my crit. Sorry if it sounds negative at times but I think it's all working crisitism :)

* For starters, great to see that Raymond has a site going now. Fantastic move!
* The overall design is fine

Here's what I'd improve or change:

* The red bar going across the screen with the IFF advert is red, but the bar on the left with the menu is white. I'd make them the same colour and possibly join them. Most likely I'd make the left column red. I just feel the contrast makes it hard to no where to exactly look on the page for the user.

* Top left you have a pic of Benson. But there is a bar of grey coming down the page. Make it back and fade the Benson picture down a little bit to make it less dramatic an end to the picture.

* Add some HTML code (I'll e-mail it to you) to make the page fit right into the covers that way the picture won't obviously have the top of Benson's head missing.

Apart from that I quite like the site. Can't wait to see updates. I made a suggestion to Raymond today to put small samples of his music online. He wasn't sure how to do it, technically speaking. So you may want to work on that.

mccartney007, if you need any help then don't hesitate to e-mail me, cause for Raymond I'd be more than willing to help!
