    www.LavaEagle.com - Critique?

    You know what, it's different - not a lot of color but once you get away from the home page, it's kinda cool. The font took me a while to get used to though. Thumbs up!

    Question: Dynamic Background and top header.

    http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images_REDESIGN/template/header_grass_bg.gif without picking the site apart - I'm assuming they are using absolute (maybe relative) positioning of their logo in a .png or .gif That's what makes CSS such a valuable tool to use!

    Modern Media Studios - Website Review

    What browser are you using? Looks perfectly fine unless you change your default browser settings to a zoom factor of 3 or more. Got a screenshot?

    What do you think of these beans?

    Is this supposed to be like Twitter?? The site doesn't really tell us much, other than asking a user to sign up. When you ask a user to sign up with little to no information, their first reaction is going to be "No Way!" Just some food for thought!

    What is the basic size of web layout..

    A good general rule - think of your website in equal parts. If you are going to use a 3 column layout, try a site that divides equally by 3! An optimal website layout recommendation is: 960px 960 is divisible by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96...

    Menus showing up behind Flash animation.

    Flash WMODE is your answer! Hi SuperDan - the reason your menu is showing up BEHIND the flash is because you must set your display property in flash. When you use 'wmode' opaque - that basically sets your flash to display above all other HTML. Try setting 'wmode' to transparent or window...
