the trouble with lyrics


This page was a bit of a challenge because it's very text heavy. I have a couple other pages like this one. I liked the image because it already had a lot of text on it. I just made the song titles bigger to make it clear that, well, they are the song titles. I made the page a little wider than some of the others and it hasn't seemed to make a difference in most browsers. I was researching common web page sizes and what I found was that 1024X768 is the most commonly used. So I'm building all my pages in this size being careful to note the hexidecimal code. That way when I go into dreamweaver I can fade the page out. This lyrics page is a good example of this. I do worry that the song titles are a little cumbersome, but other than just having a list on a blank page all that text will always create a design issue.
