[Sigia-l] length of nav labels

[Hilary Marsh]

I'm doing a website redesign project for a nonprofit foundation. The 
foundation's work is difficult to summarize in two or three words, so 
here's where we are at the moment with category names for the site:

What makes a great girls' program

Great girls' programs GBF funds

Sisters Empowering Sisters (<--the only program they run themselves)

How GBF has strengthened many girls' programs

About the foundation


These are certainly longer than most sites' navigation labels, but 
are they unreadable?

Does anyone have statistics on this?

We don't have time to do substantial user testing, although we'll try 
to work some in on the fly. So it's my word, as well as the client's 
instincts, driving the final choices.

I'd appreciate input on this.

Thanks,

Hilary
