Tip: As we have all found out to our dismay, all the shops are closed on Sundays in Germany! If you are looking for a good present for a birthday etc, visit the Museum's book shop on a Sunday. The post office, just round the corner in the main train station is also open. So if you forget during the week, or you don't have time, you can also go there or use the shops in the Wandelhalle in the station - includes flower shops, stationary, limited and expensive food shopping and book shops plus the Body Shop - all open Sunday

Professional Web Design Tips & Tricks
1. Put Important Information Near the Top
Organize your pages from the top down. Important info should be easy to find.
2. Limit Length of Pages
Two or three screens should be the maximum length of any page, unless unavoidable.
3. Make Navigation Simple
Be consistent in your placement of navigational tool, i.e. menus, buttons, etc.
4. Make Images As Small As Possible
Reduce physical size of images in Paint/Photo programme before placing in your web page.
5. Use Web Palette (216 colours)
This keeps files small and makes images look good on all monitors and systems.
6. Use GIF and JPEG Properly
Use JPEG for photos and GIF for everything else.
7. Avoid Busy Backgrounds
Text should be easy to read. Make sure you have enough contrast.
8. Use ALT Parameter (low-res and/or text) for Images
This is important for people viewing your pages with older computers.
9. Avoid Excessive Animation
Don't animate images unless you have a good reason - it can be very irritating.
