Title: My second Baker Site

It's still in testing stages, but my new baker site is online at www.oddl.uni.cc - comments and suggestions welcome.

Just my 2 cents worth but the site seems to need a lot of work to polish things up. For example, here are some things that I noticed that you may want to address

- The hover effect on the menu items toggles the text color to a very light color that doesn't show up against a white background. When I checked the CSS...there is no hover defined for the menu which resolves to: html>body>table>tbody>tr>td>table .header>tbody>tr>td>a .menu>span>b

- Table based versus CSS...makes it unnecessarily complex and hard to read...see example above

- Lot's of CSS classes and IDs that are not being used

- Many HTML errors...test it with Tidy to get a complete listing of the errors

There a nice Firefox extension called Web Developer that I use to clean things up and identify problem areas with CSS (and other things). You might want to look at that extension if you are a FF user.

Good luck!
