    Re: Please critique my site

    First thing that pops up when clicking on your site is something about a Crescendo Software. Whatever that is, I closed your site.

      I like the big top and the cute wee puppy. Spelling needs addressing!!!! I think it gets mentioned a lot around here.... when we use music on our sites, a switch off button is required for viewers. Your style of music striking up will not help when someone is supposed to be completing their urgent spreadsheets in the office! LOL

      All in all, bright and cheery. Nice one :)

        It really is cute, but I agree the music should have a shut off button somewhere. It should also be centered. On my page I have a shut off button, but I'm trying to remove the whole thing and can't get back to the page.

          I personally thought the music was too loud. I tried leaving the player with its controls visable but didn't like the look. I decided to let viewers
          set the volume on their own computers. It is just as easy to control things
          on thewir own tool bar as it would be on an on site player.

            Robert!

            You originally got some really great suggestions on how to improve your site in your first/original thread....now that you have added music (and need to tweak that out additionally), you should go back and list all of them on a piece of paper and tackle them in order!

            This will be your best approach to successful website design, and offer you a means to measurable accomplishemnt!

              Ok, here goes!

              1. Centre in the browser will help visually.

              2. Line over bottom icon text.

              3. Buttons don't match in very well with the background - suggest revise these.

              4. Use Publisher if you have it to mess around with the page title - clean up and replace.

              5. Like the clown, consider enlarging (but watch out for distortion)

              6. Try a different font set on the front page. Coloured letters can be distracting and turn viewers away..

              7. I would suggest that anyone inputting a load of text copies into word and spellchecks before publishing - great way to save embarrassing comments.

              8. Try turning the MIA page into a more positive page. Pets reunited or something? where pets have the chance to track down their owners??

              9. Cannot see images of pet tricks...?

              10. Ignore what everyone says and suggests, we are all individuals and as such keep the world a more interesting place.

              I hope some of the idea's are of use to you and indeed you can build on them. The ones that you don't like - feel free to mutter abuse at the PC when you read them...

                When I open your site I get a pop-up something to do with a Crescendo Forte License (?) , not sure what this is about. I have to cancel everytime, what is it?

                  Here's my opinion....

                  I don't really care how good or bad the site is and the reason for that is simple....

                  The tunes on every page are so fantastic I enjoyed every single second of my stay on your site!!! I found it very entertaining

                  Tally ho....
                  Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.

                    I see you have made changes. Nice, it is coming together for you. Your centering is a little off. You have also made changes to the backround color, very good. It will all work out for you in the end. good luck.

                      Very unique idea. The thing that I noticed most is the form and the spelling oversights. Registration,brief,gallery should have been capitalized too,constitutes and renewal. The music is a bit choppy. Hope that is a word and is spelled right. As others have said, not all links work,probably working on that. After the tweaking I'm interested in the outcome. Like I said, a novel idea.

                        Love your web page, But when I click on a link It goes nowhere. Your home page is very unique. Don't get discuraged. I re-did mine 4 times and I am still working on it. Make sure your home page lets people know what your selling.

                              Love your idea! I can't really add anything more than what others have suggested, circuspet . . . You're doing great so far and I think that utilizing the suggestions you are getting in here will make it fabulous!

                              May I suggest adding some pics? I know lots of people who flip through sites until a picture (s) catch their eye . . . without that, they'd never stop on the sites they do stop on. This is one thing I'm pretty good with . . . if you need suggestions, e-mail me. I sent you an email through your contact link on your site . . . you can just reply to that.

                                Some pics would indeed be a good idea. How about doing some link exchanges with some of the other animal related sites here?
