Hi Guys (and Girls!)

I have just redesigned my wife's theatre school website, having been using a Flash site for the past 6 months or so.

I'm no web designer - so excuse the validation errors, but I only started the site yesterday and have already managed to get it online in it's current guise. I will work on the validation a bit when I find the time but it's a case of learning the ropes as I go along in this respect.

I've gone for speed and ease of use this time around, so any comments in this area - as well as the aesthetics very much appreciated.

The site can be found at http://www.lhtheatreschool.co.uk.

It was based on the template 'Swanky' which can be found on opendesigns, so I can't take all of the credit - though I have changed quite a bit of the CSS to adapt to my needs.

Thanks in advance

Please be careful with trying to stuff keywords in your footer and hiding them.

Google may not like this.

Hmmm, yes. I've got away with it on this site for the past five years or so, but point taken (and one I was already aware of)

I would just get rid, but it does drive a bit of traffic my way on the huge range of things that people seem to type in for the service we offer. To get all those keywords in elsewhere is a bit tricky. The site does generate a fair bit of business from new starters - though it's primary goal is to keep existing pupils and parents updated.

Thanks for the feedback.
