2 sites done with CMSMS

Here are 2 sites done with CMSMS, both for the same person, but 2 different business
www.denverjazzquartet.com
www.zanichellientertainment.com

I originally did these as static sites before I discovered CMSMS. The client, who is computer-challenged, does the updates himself (with a *little* help from me).

Your thoughts,

On the second site Home page right sidebar the first item is denver jazz but no name appears in the text like in the rest of them...

Nice sites, might want to run thru validation...

Mark,
Thank you for what I overlooked. And yes, I know that there is some validation cleanup to do.

Thanks again!

Looks real nice!  The only suggestion I would have is to allow the width to vary as a percentage instead of having it set as an absolute.  The jazz page is only taking up around 35% of the real estate on my 22" 16:9 monitor - looks kind of scrunched up in the center of the screen.  Here's a a screen grab:

Looks like the "wrapper" class is set to have a width of 656px in your css:

#wrapper {
text-align: left;
vertical-align: middle;
margin: 0px auto;
padding: 0px;
width: 656px;
background: transparent

My monitor does 1680px width to that's actually 656/1680 = 39%

Anyway just a suggestion but w/ these larger monitors becoming more and more prevalent seems like you might want to the pages wider or be able to adjust as a % of screen width.

Overall your sites looks very pro to me!

Thanks for your input. The DJQ site uses background images, so there is no way (that I know of anyway) to have a fluid width (because the size of the images is fixed).

Looks nice, but where is the cmsmadesimple.org link?

Actually you could do the blue part as a flexible/fluid side leaving the black a fixed width, this site is all images and is fluid...
