I was very much impressed with the quality of your site and I could see that a great deal of time, creativity, and effort went into it. Your site received the points required to receive a PREMIER GOLD OZZ, and the HALL OF EXCELLENCE badge. [snip] The only comment I can make negative about the evaluation is that I found excessive scrolling on most pages visited, I respectfully suggest that consideration be given to using "up links" for longer pages. Excellent experience!!

NB: Inspired by these comments regarding "up links" I have added an uplink to the bottom of every page on my site. It is one more example how award programs help improve sites.

Your site is really excellent. We enjoyed surfing it.
