New Website
Mornin' Dudes!
Nothing to do with cars I'm afraid. I just wondered if you would give me some feedback on my new website which I built all by myself by editing
HTML code without having much idea of what I was doing (I don't have any web building software). It was all trial and error. I'm quite
pleased with it so far. At least it's up and running and doing it's job. I can always tweak it as and when the need arises.
Let me know what you think. I know there are some brainy IT types out there!
Cheers
Jon

Looks good mate, like the Gibson's you've got there... (must get mine out and learn to play it.........)
Couple of things, (The Missus QA's websites for a living so kinda picked it up - bloody good job to be in!)
Theres a colour difference between the Home page/links page and the rest of the site. Goes from a bright red colour to a dark almost blood red colour,
dunno if that was intented?
The Links page has a large grey box around the wording. Kinda looks a bit odd.
Also some of the pages have titles, some don't. and the titles are never quite in the same place, hence the links at the top of the page jump
about. I'm a lazy sod and find it quite annoying when you play chase the link.
Dunno if this was the kind of feedback you were after? Will delete if it isn't. But thought if your going to use it as Advertising, then
you'll want to know. Bloody good site considering its using HTML editing. If you can get hold of Frontpage or non microsoft equiv. (u2u me if
you don't have it) you find it much easier to create and edit websites.
My lovely wife made my website up for me in a couple of hours (helps when you know what your doing!) and is constantly tweaking it. All done using
frontpage, click and paste.

Looks good and agree with the comments above, try and get yourself Frontpage or Dreamweaver, they are wysiwyg editors which "What you see is
what you get" they are far easier to use than Word 2003 and word also puts in loads of style sh!te of which mnost is unneeded and just slows
down page rendering on older pc's with slow connections. I would go with Frontpage to start with and advance onto Dreamweaver when you want to
do more advanced things like layering.
The one thing I would try to change is in the Pictures area (Photo Gallery) and link the thumbnails to larger images. Apart from that, looks great,
nice work.
Regards
Rich

Looks good to me mate and I'm glad to find someone on the site born in the same year as me.

Thanks for the feedback chaps. I know there are a few niggles but I'll tweak it as I go. I would like to get hold of a copy of Frontpage though
as MS Word does put a load of unnecessary crap in which makes editing a pain. If anyone has a copy I can 'borrow' I would be
grateful.
Thanks again.
Cheers
Jon
