I have listened to your advice and made some changes... Hit me - good, bad or otherwise?

I like the previous version better. (I know I'll be in the minority, but so what)
The "chopped off" butterfly wings make such an inescapable poor impression that I need to stop there.

Just an opinion, one that means nothing, really....there are a lot of other ways to "lighten up" your image, if that is what you are responding to....an earlier comment from one person, simply by changing the attributes of your original. And, trading that for an animated gif was a poor trade.
I think you'd be better holding off until you can finally find a nice video clip of a fluttering butterfly you could slow down, add transparancy to, and turn into a big looped "flash-like" display as your index image under all your text and navigation ....but that's only one idea.....
And it is not a really good idea to use images from other's websites (Guarantee). Not good idea at all....

What images from other websites? Which ones are you talking about? Tell me please!

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

And of course your opinion matters General! It matters greatly!

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

Okay, I'm going back to the drawing board on the index! What images from other sites? Your logo, sire? Do you want me to take it out? Tell me please! I'm panicking!

I'm searching the web for a nice butterfly video to show you what I am talking about right now.....

And no, R, my opinion (nor anyone else's) should ever influence your crativity, your vision from unfolding....

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

Do you know how few nice butterfly videos there are out there! Whew!

Still looking...........

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

I got the guarantee from the bv library! Are we not supposed to use those images? I'm confused and alarmed!

Thank you for looking for the video, doll. I am SO aware of the scarcity! I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

Myself, I would choose a really nice butterfly image in the center, and a few fluttering butterflies that fly throughout the page ....

that's only my opinion ...

I like the colours of your page now, just a few too many butterflies ... again only my opinion .....

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

I agree with Holly.

What doesn't work on this new page - is that if you have any resolution other than 800 wide, it really messes with what you did. The background cuts up everything.

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

Take a look at this vid .... it's a Quicktime (don't we have problems with that in BV?)

I have it downloaded, and can transfer it to WAV format, and make it as large as necessary, and in Windows MovieMaker, "watermark" it, so it is subtle as a large 800x600 page background.....by slowing it down, it will be pretty coool, I think!
I also have VideoMagic and FotoAngelo...I can crop and rotate videos, add elements, and do some more crazy stuff if I play with files on my Media laptop!

Try using the VH pix resizer to change the size of your seal...it is distorted now, and always will be if you "size" it in BV

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

I assume you are going to pay the $399.00 for the butterfly lady Vasili ,... very kind of you .... lol

Re: Okay My Blue Voda Dolls ~ Tear it up!

Do I have to pay $200 for this image? I love the idea, but am a bit scared at the price!
