Hello... I agree - the internal page need some sort of consistency in style with the homepage (or vice versa). Reverse text is difficult for some people to read, so I would stay away from orange text on black background. I'd recommend building a style guide first (colors, fonts, etc) and remember the rules of design... Contrast Repetition Alignment Proximity... CRAP will get you anywhere. =) Also, if you'd like to increase your chances of being found on search engines, I'd recommend finding some way to use the keywords in your banner as plain text styled by CSS rather than on an image. Also, watch your anchor link targets... sometimes links open in a new window and sometimes they don't... My personal rule is that you should open a new window when you're leaving your own web site, or if you're opening a non-html document, like a PDF. I'm new around this forum, but I still hope this helps! Good luck! Stephanie <a href="http://www.stephaniechu.com">www.stephaniechu.com</a>
