    My site is up! Any comments?

    Here it is:

    www.kauaiestatelaw.com

    It is temporarily redirected to the same name .net, but that is a long story. If you experience any problems with the redirect, let me know.

    Also, I have checked the site with Firefox and IE, but if anybody's using anything else, or older versions, I'd love to hear of any problems. Also with accessibility options (though I haven't put in all the alt text yet, I plan to do that over the next few days).

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, looking good. One of your images needs a KB diet as is over 1meg & a bit slow loading.

      Looks great! The font on the bottom part of your Home page is a bit small to read but then again you're a Lawyer so fine print is OK. (just kidding!)

        Thanks for the tips. I saw that photo loading, I'll shrink that (and beef up the size of the disclaimer text) on the next rev.

          Well presented, nice choice of colours and interesting content.

          You might want to add a contact form and avoid all those spammers that will soon pick up your email address.

          Are you anticipating working through an email medium or just office based work ?
          Have fun

            The picture of some books in your 'other services' page also need to be resized.
            It's 1.1mb!! and takes long to load.

            Keep it up! Well done!

            Cheers,

                Your homepage - as the print got smaller and smaller I was wondering what was going on. First of all I thought that the print should be larger, then I realised the small print was exactly that. I think however that you should remove the "small print" from your homepage and then your page will be near perfect. Perhaps have a link at the bottom "The Small Print" and have a separate page (in normal font) with all the legal disclaimers.

                The rest of the site looks pretty good but beware that in Firefox the statement "Photographs on this page courtesy of S. Stockley (l) and David B. Lat (r)." overlaps your text on the following pages: About the Firm and Estate Planning

                One last thing. I think you should also put the company name in all your titles to make you more searchable i.e. Kauai Estate Law - Estate Planning, Kauai Estate Law - Estate Administration

                    Looks Great! I second the comments above about the mouse over and pic size. You can use the free pic resizer from BV, really works great!

                      already been said really, only that your email will get spammed rather alot if you advertise it like that. I know this from previous experience.

                        Re: My site is up! Any comments?

                        Thanks all! I have fixed the text overlapping problem on Firefox on all but those two pages, I'll get them next. (I use firefox and I don't know why it doesn't overlap on my computer, but I have had the same problem with other websites, so I know what you mean. I found a simple fix and will add it to those pages ASAP.)

                        Mahalo, Tom! I was going to PM you, but you don't have PM. So, I just wanted to say, I like your site too. It's very nice looking, not too 'busy', easy to navigate. Nice job!

                          You did a good job. Did you use VODA HOST all the way or built it up somehow with a few html elsewhere. It looks professionally done.

                          I am proud of you and hope you'll succeed. All of these guys who commented are pro.

                          It feels good to have them.

                          Sincerely,

                          Ver, a new comer

                              I did it all myself with BlueVoda; thanks for the compliments. I actually got BlueVoda to build a site for my husband (he's The Electric Lutist), but then he decided to have someone else (a pro) do his. It's almost done, we're hoping to launch it (electriclutist.com) by the end of the month (or maybe a week into November, at the rate we're going). I'm going to host it here, as an add-on domain to mine (since I got mine done first, and I'm not even a professional! Hee hee!)

                              Thanks again, everybody who's checked out my site.
