Hi all! As the title says, I just finished writing a couple emergency first aid articles. So far I have an intro/basic care article and a hypothermia/frostbite article. Plan to do some more including: shock, heat exhaustion & heat stroke, snake & insect bites, bleeding, fractures, and spinal injuries.

I'm certified by the Red Cross as a first responder btw.

Anyhoo . . . both articles can be found here at my site, socaltrailriders.org (http://www.socaltrailriders.org/articles.htm)

Any criticism, comments, suggestions would be much appreciated! Just want to check if I should do something different for the next articles. Specifically - is it easy enough to understand and follow?

Good info, but please change that aweful brown background...it is hard on the eyes reading white text on brown.

I was thinking of doing that the other day. What I'll do when I have some time though is make another stylesheet and include a link somewhere by the navigation or up top; when clicked, this will change to the other stylesheet making the side and top a brown background and main content a white background.

I agree with 531phile though, I like the brown :) . But then I understand that it might be a bit hard for some people to read . . .

Thanks for the input, guys!
