Hi,
Here is my Tribute Page. I would appreciate if you could critique the code/design. Thanks.

Hi @rcx
looks nice at first glance.
personally i not really like the breaks when you display a year-range.
Also this looks missplaced: 1861/2 —> better 1861/62 or full 1861/1862 or also a timerange 1861-1862.
Furthermore everything look like a bold font, but i can not find the css rule, but my browser says it’s bold.
A link to the code would be nice.
You include bootstrap and responsive works well. First i was a bit irritated about the solution with the html-table. But you wanna really display a table, so why not?
Overall: good work from my point of view.
Kind regards
David

@daveyx Follow-up question: What would be a better choice to display this type of information instead of a table?
Hi @rcx,
i don’t say it is a bad choice to use html-table!!!
Other options:
- I did it completely with bootstrap3 grid: http://codepen.io/daveyx/full/jBNXRd/
- Reviewing other tribute pages here, i often see solutions with lists ul- and li-elements
Long time ago all html pages were build with html-tables and nowadays the layout should not be defined by html-table, as we have css now (yeah, i am a bit old already). html-tables should only be used in order to display a table (what you might wanna do?). i avoid html-tables in all of my projects, but it is completely up to you, as long it is fully responsive and working in all browsers 
(have a view of your page here: http://crossbrowsertesting.com)
The rule is: use css for layout, use html-table if you wanna display a table (i.e. an excel representation)
Kind regards
