    Great Site just a few tweaks...

    This site is very nicely done. Great work! I just have a few small items.

    1. The logos is kinda small and gets lost with all the large text all around it. I would suggest moving the logo to the right side and make it a bit larger so the corner of the logo brings you down to the site. This logo really could be integrated into the main navigation area with the tabs. Then move the Search and Media Center links etc to the left side. This probably will need some experimenting with but if you can get it to work right I think the header area will be much stronger.

    2. On the footer/site map area I would again switch the World Vision International to the right side and have the links on the left. Not a big deal could be just my preference. More importantly center that area with the area above it. Looks off begin aligned to the left edge.

    3. On your other pages when you are in Issues, About Us, etc. I think it would look more cohesive if the tabs turned that orange color with the great texture. Definitely like the Sponsor a child tab blue though.

    4. Only other thing is just make sure your body text is rendering correctly some areas it is hard to read.

    Amazing job. Your information is well presented and very well organized.

      1. Yep, their logo was quite a huge challenge for us as it was not really "tight" and had this right aligned look to it. However, in terms of usability, I'm a little hesitant on shifting the placements as search is commonly found on the top right.

      2. Will give it a shot and see how it turns out.

      3. Yup, the tabs will be highlighted during actual implementation. Thanks for the tip.

      4. Noted on the text. Probably due to the jpegs. Shouldn't be an issue when its finally in HTML.
