    Well, I completed the design for a local real estate company, and I just finished coding it. I have the coded version up on my server:

    USHomeListers.com

    I don't believe this is advertising because it's not my company and they're not paying me to advertise. I just want to see what everyone thinks.

    All XHTML and CSS is WC3 valid

    Some of it is no longer needed as I've removed DIVs I had been using, but I will be cleaning it up in the future.

    Also, I have a question for you. For the more main/high used codes, why did you do them inline, why didn't you make an external stylesheet so you wouldn't have to retype the whole code again, just call the same style sheet in each html page, and just use your class="" and such. Just wondering. :)

    I actually just copied and pasted. I'm going to be doing a better coding job in a month or two. They want it all online by January 1st, so I'm just doing a rush job right now, and then after its online I'm going to be updating it with a version that will be coded much better. Basically this is just a rough coding job.

    Ahh, I see. So basically, you're valid coding is crutched haha. While it is valid, it's a poor way of doing it if you were to leave it. But since you are changing it, it should be good to go.

    Yeah, the company has told me if I do a good job on this they will employ me full time over the summer at a much better rate than I can get elsewhere, so I'm going to be doing as good a job as I can on it. But they want at least a temporary site up by January 1st, and this is that temporary site.

    Maybe you should add some space between the top links and the text. Looks like you need some air in between in some pages.
    Might consider that the bottom should come up to on when the text only is half way down.
    Its nice all in all, but the bg is kind of boring. Maybe you should add some sky and clouds on the top behind the house, something like that?

    Looks great! All I could say about it, is that it the background is rather boring, as sasja said.

    Yeah, like I mentioned before, all I was really focused on was loading time. The owner loves it, so it's all good with me.
