New NVA website - proofreaders needed

Hi All

I've been working on developing a new website for NVA for the Doc - it's 90% there and is just missing a few new photos and some seo and links added.

What I really need now is a few people to help with proofreading, the copy/photos have come from a combination of Gromit (big thank you), the Doc and then the old archive website. Due to this I'm sure there are some consistency issues.

If any of you spare some time to review the website, proof read and post back on this thread with feedback it would be much appreciated.

To access the site please visit the temporary site address - https://james-selby-fgta.squarespace.com there is a password to access the site which is: richarddunn

Areas that aren't finished are speakers, the links to reviews in the black box archive and then a few missing photos but hopefully it gives you an idea of what the final site will look like, it's built on a responsive platform so will work perfectly on smartphones and tablets so please test on there as well.

Thanks
James

Just tried it no user/password asked for.

Not saying Im a good proof reader but I'll see what I make of it.

Quality visuals, so important to some.

Nice site. It's relaxing and blends well with the NVA equipment.

First impression.

The banner image top of each page is a bit deep taking half the initial page view. After the first 'seeing' it becomes intrusive as one has to scroll down to see what the actual content is. Suggest half of it's current depth.

Alfer - can you let me know what screen resolution you're using?

I need to find the right balance for people with hi-res screens and lower resolution screens - great feedback.

When viewing on my mobile, on the interconnects page it separates the word 'interconnects' and puts the 's' on the line below on the banner. This only happens when viewed in portrait.

I must say the site looks very clean and professional.
