[vet-mm] CSS Critique Invited to Ros from Keith

[Keith Richardson]

Hi there Ros.
Here is the site further developed.
Following up Mario's suggestions, I selected some of the actual colours
from the tree bark macro photograph used as the upper background in an
attempt to provide a natural palette with some balance and interest. Who
knows if I have succeeded - maybe some day I will take myself along for
some study in design, but for now I can only use gut reaction and
instinct.
Cheers, Keith
