Hey Gear Head,

I like your site. Two things that struck me off the bat was the nav with the bird behind it. It's a little busy and sort of distracting on the eyes.

Also (this may be a personal thing) but the SitePal video loading when the page loads has always annoyed me. When I was in the workforce I used to hate it when sites did that (of course I probably shouldn't have been surfing the net anyway, LOL) I like to have the ability to be able to hit play when I want to hear it.

Plus if I decide to read something else on the page first I may not want to play the video right away. Again may just be a personal thing.

Other than that, good job!

I agree with Lisa on the video starting automatically but I guess it depends on how important the message is. If it's something that you really want your visitors to hear and not miss then I would leave it on autoplay. But if it's just a "hey cool" kinda thing then I would like to have the option of hitting play myself.

Also the alignment of the scrimmage logo seems off to me. Either that should be centered like the video or the video needs to be left aligned.

Other than those two items, looking good.

Good point, that cardinal has been an eyesore for me but.. it was requested Again. And that non centered scrimmage coundown wont stay justified on center. It was and then its not!..I will change it..and it will bve fine for a bit and then ...As for Site Pal I dont even like it myself, but it is popular with our veiwers. I am changing that cardinal picture in the menu again today.

Thanks
Gear Head

If the cardinal was requested, maybe you could fade it a little so it's not so dramatic.

The site doesn't look to bad, but I don't like the red color and the grass don't blend in nicely with the design

I see you used a template. With a couple of tweaks this can be good

You have Failed validation, 86 Errors on the W3c validator

If I am you then I will move the sitepal character a bit more to the top.
Remember some visitors don't scroll down.
