Continue to love CMSMS. It makes it so easy to put a site together. Here's another site we just finished, http://www.whitedovestables.com.

Horse Boarding Website
Re: Horse Boarding Website
I have quite a few horses myself and like this website.
There is something though that for me is very distracting. Across the top menu "Event and Location" areas there is what appears to be a ghost above the letter "a". Same thing elsewhere. In the larger text I can see that it is a white dove. In the smaller text areas, like under News where it states "new website", this dove image clutters the text. Especially when I view it on my phone instead of my computer screen.
Just an observation. Nice site again. Love your work!

Re: Horse Boarding Website
Hey ElkMan. Thanks for the compliments. Always nice to hear. The ghosting over the 'A' is correct, however it is the font creating a little knob over the top of it. You might be able to see what I mean if you look further in side the site and one of the headers.
Nothing I can do about unless I created images instead of text which I think I did too much of with the main menu buttons.

Re: Horse Boarding Website
I understand. I went onto other pages to view further. Once I got used to it the text wasn't as distracting.

Hi,
Looks like a fun site!
Note: FireFox(3.6.26)+firebug(1.7.3) did point out the following "issues":

Re: Horse Boarding Website
Like it.
Peeked at the html to see how you were handling the fancy fonts (css import, cufon, etc) and noticed that you're loading jquery.min.js twice in the <head> section.
This not only slows page load but may lead to problems down the track.
<__script__ src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/j ... ery.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></__script>
<__script__ type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jq ... "></__script>
... both of which are now out of date.
The site is working so it's not a biggie, just something to think about when it needs an upgrade.
Otherwise, very nice site.
Cheers
