Synopsis of Testing

Changes Needed
Remove background image from tables, so site will be seen the same in IE as well as Netscape.
Overall Summary

Site looks best in IE w/millions of colors. I prefer the larger screens.The only real issue is the breaking of the table image, this is being removed with client approval.

This site is designed for a 800x600 screen
