Pesky IE, Game Design Website

I started work on a new web design a few weeks ago for my client Jay Biros.
Jay is a game designer who needed a portfolio website as he graduates in June, same as me.
I find the website works in all browsers, except pesky IE.

I mean who uses Internet Explorer anyway, apart from most of my readers *cough*. .

IE is crap. Its the guy sitting in the corner eating a pot of glue whilst Chrome and Firefox fight it out.

Anyway heres a snapshot of the site, I dont want to get ahead of myself by providing the url in case its still buggy.

Ok, ok the links below the image!  but its only to the link on my page so there thats all youre getting for now.

Top Essentials For Good Web Design

I am now studying for my graded unit to finally get my HNC in June so its important for me to continue to learn and write ABOUT the concepts I have learned!
SO this is as much for you as it is for me :)

1. Colour is everything! - Understand colour what ity evokes in people, understand colour schemes; and if you dont know what youre doing, pick a colour scheme from http://webdesignledger.com/tools/10-super-useful-tools-for-choosing-the-right-color-palette  or http://colorschemedesigner.com/

2. Font! Choose the correct typeface for the work you are doing, consider the target audience, ie older generation use a larger typeface. Consider, weight, kerning and leading.

3. Layout! lay yout design out so the design follows a visual hierarchy with the most important thing drawing your eye first in a logical way.

4. Good web design is crap.

C. - contrast
R. - repetition
A. - allignment
P. - proximity

p.s. i got a new keyboard, I couldnt live with the one I had anymore and I feel like smashing it up. Don't know if it was my pc or because the keyboard was wireless. Hey Ho!
