This was my main concern with my web site. I made sure on every page that there is a link to go back to either Home or the previous site. One main problem I see with my site now is the links on my start page. Users may become confused as to where to go. The buttons at the top of the page are links, but the labels underneath them are not, therefore it would be better to create links out of those labels solely on that first portal page, leaving the inside pages how they are.
Next aspect needing to be examined is appearance.
When first opening a page, a viewer initially scans the pictures and layout before reading the actual text. My primary concern with appearance dealt and continues to deal with choosing an appropriate background. Finding a dark background which does not create difficulty in reading white text is the main issue. Some backgrounds, such as the one on my Cool Links page, are dark overall, but have minor detail areas which are lighter, causing the text to blend into the background and impose strain on the eyes. Other than the background, the layout of each page should be easily viewed and all information accessible.
