Re: Completely rebuilt site
I had not seen the previous site, Frances but this does look good, I personally would work on the spacing between columns and also there is a large expanse of white on the footer. A great idea for the site by the way. The logo is brilliant, I really like the font you have used.

Re: Completely rebuilt site
Looks clean and fun.
The logo kind of just sits there though. A soft shadow might lift it off the page a bit.
Re: Completely rebuilt site
Thanks Skech and Gary :) I've now added some extra space between the columns and after some investigation I found that the place holder for the G+ badge was oversized and part of it extended below the bottom of the page causing the expanse of white background below the footer. I've got that all sorted now.
I was going for a clean flat look, but I have been thinking about using a shadow to raise the logo off the page a bit.
Oh and the font for the logo, and the headings is called Winona Pro. It's a web font I purchased in a collection from Softmaker.com
Re: Completely rebuilt site
If you follow Gary's suggestion for the shadow do so just on the butterfly.
Re: Completely rebuilt site
I was just doing that exact thing :D I think it looks great, almost as if the butterfly has just landed on the text. Thanks to both of you :)

Hi Frances, I like it. A couple of things though it looks like you pasted the link tags into the links properties for the affiliate links(including the one in the footer) therefore breaking the links. The contact icon is covering part of the Terms and Conditions link, I am using Firefox 23 see screenshot. The Terms and Conditions text in the footer is not linked.
:)

The same happens in Chrome.
Nice site, Angelize. I like the Winona font you used for the Sun Wings logo but I find it is less suitable for the headers. I saw it described as a historical font and I feel it gives your site a bit of a dated look. Hope you do not mind me saying this.
Re: Completely rebuilt site
Thanks James and Boy
Affiliate links fixed and I've changed the heading font. I think it looks much cleaner now. Thanks to everyone who has participated in this thread!
