Author of site evaluated: Ben Jimenez
Document is subdivided into logical supporting pages or, if presented as a single page, offers a table of contents with section links to avoid scrolling through entire document. The table of contents on the home page is useful. It would be easier to navigate if the navigation was repeated on every page. Have to click through all "next pages" to get back to the home page is not convenient.
The site displays accepted graphic design principles, including uncluttered space, subdued backgrounds, and coordinated colors. Some of the backgrounds make the text hard to read.
Navigation is intuitive, easy to understand, and provides flexibility in movement.Navigation is not easy since there is not a common navigation bar on every page. The user is forced to go through multiple pages to get other options.
Home page is linked from all subsequent pages.No.
Multimedia elements load quickly or file size is indicated with user option to download. Yes, graphics load quickly.
Images include ALT, HEIGHT, WIDTH tags and offer initial thumbnail graphic if file size is large. There are no Height, Width, or Alt Text tags for your graphics that I saw.
