 * The design looks quite corporate and serious.
 * You don’t have meaningful text in `<img>` attributes; you’re discriminating against
   those with visual impairment.
 * Your drop-down menu won’t disappear until I click away.
 * The Contact Us page takes a long time to load.
 * Your text layout could be mixed-up a bit, perhaps including more imagery too.
   The About Us page has text expanding from one side of the website to the other,
   which is destructive to readability.
 * The header image illustrates little information from the size of it.
 * The Home page (haven’t tested other pages) is not valid of W3C’s standards [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fsaygi.ca&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fsaygi.ca&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0).

 * Thank you very much for your comments Andrew,
 * I will take care of img attributes.
 * Which browser are you using? Drop down menu disappears with out clicking away
   for me.
 * There is not much data on Contact Us page but you are right it takes long time
   to road. It is 497 KB
 * I didn’t use widgets at side, I thought it could be distracting because we have
   a strong header image and logo images at the background. Do you think that we
   should try sidebar widgets with images?
 * You are right about header image too, we may ask our client to add a motto on
   it.
 * I used a theme but it is really intresting to see it is not valid according to
   validator.w3.org
 * Thanks a lot

 * Sorry, the drop down menu does disappear, it just takes longer than I expected.
