Alright, I finally have the new website over 90% completed and ready for constructive criticism:D I know it could get ugly, but please let me know what you think about the site, any errors you find(eyes are tired from staring) and/or any suggestions you think you might have. A couple of the pages still need some work, but I think you will be able to tell which ones I have worked on(not the dark blue pages or under construction pages)

Alright, Let me know what you think:popcorn:

Um, half the space is wasted. What's there is tiny. Too small for my eyes. Do people seriously have their screen resolution set to less than 1024/1280 x 768?
 
okay, since you're asking...this is coming from a non-techy, but someone who has visited many scuba websites.

When I visit a website, the only thing i care about is getting information, quick and easy (I'm a busy guy - gotta get back to scubaboard). my only two problems were:

Your site it pretty, but loading each of the screens took too long on my high speed office computer.
The rentals page didn't specify what the gear was (make, model).

Other than that, very nice job.
 
The size is something Im trying to work on, my computer guy told me we can make it bigger but some people might have the resolution at different settings.....I agree though that it needs to be bigger and his ear hurts from me talking sooo much about it ;)

The speed is slow? It loads quick here....I will have to check other machines......and different locations...

Thanks guys, Keep it coming :D
 
In my browser, on pages like "Photo Gallery", the center screen is too small to fit the contents. So, I have to use the scroll bars on the center screen. Here is an example:

Most people have their resolution set much higher than what you're currently targetting. Big deal, the FEW people that have smaller resolutions will have to scroll. Do not piss off the majority of your viewers with tiny fonts and frames. I found it to load quick enough. Still, I dislike frames.
