Would ye, of varying browser and OS backgrounds, kindly check out http://www.music.iastate.edu/org/iss and tell me if you have any problems. Only Internet Explorer or old version browser users should be redirected to the frames site; if you’re redirected there and using a newer non-IE browser, please let me know!

    Lots of great stuff going on with the site — nice selection of comment, consistent layout, links back to ISU home etc, contact link, use of ISU colors (at least they appear to be), etc! But of course I expected that knowing your awesome web design skills. :)

    Anyways How picky do you want me (and others) to be?

    Notes — using XP, IE6:
    - None of the images load.
    - In the image gallery, all the alt tags say ISS 2004.
    - When clicking an image, it loads a blank page or does nothing.

    Nit-Picky stuff:
    - Check the alignment of the 2005-2006. Looking closely, it seems to be about a character too far to the right.
    - Perhaps in the noframes version where you say that “if you’re not using IE you shouldn’t be here”, you could put a link to the right place???

    Non-browser specific stuff
    - On about page: “concert s” (no space)
    - Repertoire…”lists for the post five years” I think you mean past not post.

    Other grammar comments:
    - About page: No comma after “audition” cuz there’s no subject after the conjunction

    Stuff you probably don’t need to hear but I noticed:
    - lots of content needs to be updated
    - maybe change copyright date to 2005?

    I’ll check it in W98 / IE5 when I get back to CF.

    My biggest complaint from last year remains: in Firefox, my scroll wheel is useless. Since this is the only site I have that problem with, I refuse to believe it’s out of reach.

  • Comment by Nick:

    Again, it’s an issue in the way FireFox handles CSS. I would suggest you bug it, if you haven’t already, because since you last mentioned it, the problem has been fixed in Safari/KHTML.

    Also, try the Deer Park alpha, and see if it still exists there.
