UK HGV Driver Site
dbfcs:
Showing off my UK based site:
Driver Shortage: HGV Driver Resources
Driver Shortage gives learner and existing HGV drivers resources and information. Get your LGV licence, find HGV jobs, find training and information on Working Time Regulations and digital tachographs
The site uses a default (tweaked) installation based on the Microsite template.
I think it is snazzy. It does the job rather nicely.
Looking to extend the current site to add more functionality, sticky features and content.
What do you all think?

I like your basic design. It's clean and logically laid out.
I do have a couple of suggestions:
* One, lose the intro page. It does nothing for your site other than to slow down your visitor. Every usability study ever published says this. Of course, some clients insist, so what are we to do?
* Two, add some photos. Pictures always make a site more inviting. Pictures of people engaged in the activities you're promoting are even better. You can find very inexpensive stock photos at photo exchanges like http://istockphoto.com.

definatly ... and maybe separate the advertisment a bit more from the content ... at the moment it is not easy to differentiate (or loose some of them ...) ;-)
But it does look verry professional already!
cheers

The intro page cannot be lost as I installed into a folder and my web server has issues. From an SEO perspective, the folder appears to be helping.
Added a top photo to the page. Take a look and tell me what you think.
There appears to be not that many great pictures around that would complement the content I have. :?
