Whatever margin the image offsets itself from, nothing hits the viewer dead centre. Compositional virtuosity is also clear in Roxby's choice of background colours. Olive drab, surgeon greyish-blue, and mustard yellow backgrounds don't distract, but instead support the images that are either in front of or next to them, much in the way that neutral colours of a museum wall do. Roxby's site exemplifies classic html at its most articulate. Tables are used to collage images together and position the accompanying texts.
Images fit together with jigsaw-puzzle congruency.
Roxby has a great sense of positioning text on the page. Thanks to the use of Mathew Carter's Verdana font, which was designed especially for the screen, the text is always clear and readable. Few pages require scrolling but instead demand that the viewer experience the image in its entirety, an aesthetic which perhaps more website designers could adopt. One can surf smoothly and quickly through the site. There are subcategories within the general topics.
