    A nice page, and the pics are great.
    -use titles for your pages. Right click on page and change 'untiltled' to India Ascends or something related to your page.
    -The Contact link does not work. Actually none of them do, you must still be working on them.

    a. I do not need the horizontal scroll. Help me delete it. Right click your page, set page width to 800 and click 'center in browser'
    b. I want to set the size of my webpage. No horizontal scroll. See above
    c. I need the slide show effect on the pics that u see on the home page. I see no effect on the pics (?) the TAj Mahal opens to a larger pic, the others small.
    Thanks

      Looks like you are getting there, needs centered though. Move in your marquee in so you will get rid of the scroll.

        Nice page, you might want to line the text above and below the center picture so they line up evenly.

          Ohhh!! I like the way you put the photos in the header! That is cool! Are you going to put stuff on the page for each photo? I mean, if I clicked on the photo, it took me to a blank page with the photo, but no text or anything. That would be cool to put more stuff on those pages!

          I don't know what you mean by "slideshow" effect?
          still working on website!

            Re: review my home page

            Hi
            Thanks you to all, for reviewing my home page.

            Bill, I right clicked the page both on the web page and also when working as the blue voda index file, yet I did not see any "set page" icon.

            I need the pictures to keep changing one after the other specially at the big picture area presently where you see big Taj Mahal pic only. This is called a slide show effect. I think so!!!
            Thank you

              Hi Yakuba,

              In Blue Voda open your index page. Right click anywhere on the page, a menu will open click on Page Properties. A New window opens, under General you will see:

              1-Title you can add your own title here.
              2-Page Width change to 800
              3-At bottom check Center in Browser
              4-Click Ok then Save and Publish

                yakuba:

                I also am not a big fan of side scroll. If you right click on an open space on your page, while in BV, you will get a drop down card called page properties on this you can limit the width of your page to 800w., you can also center the page, and set new backgrounds.

                      The slide show effect you're talking about is nothing more than using the banner rotater in tools on left side of BV. Afterwards if wanted you can created border as wide as needed to forma a frame for your "slideshow". You are doing a good job. Might want to explain somehow or change some of the wording , such as Guests Verdict maybe that is a term in English and that is fine,but most Americans will not recognise it. I would only guess it has something to do with testimonials or judging of your company by clients. Two marquees so close in proximity is distracting. Like the colors and wish you luck.

                          Hi!
                          I did exactly as told.
                          I corrected the index page width to 800 and height to 600 and saved.
                          The index page in bv appears corrected. But even after correction in bv the index file after publishing on the net is not corrected. I cleaned the cookies and temporary files on the explorer. Very very confusing indeed!!!!

                          The pics in the header create a link. I do not want the pics to have any
                          link. I have taken these pics from other sites.

                          The text alphabet appears a bit hazy to me. I expect the text fonts to be ***** like in vodahost website. Help!!!

                            slide shows can also be set up in media player then inported to yourpage and set to loop. There is more than one way to skin a cat, my father would say. The more you learn the more choices you have on how to do things, or in my case the more confused you become. LOL

                              You need to go back and verify that your page width is indeed set to 800, do not worry about the length of the page.

                              Here's a tip - in Blue Voda, top of the page - MENU- click Layout > Guide Settings and in the middle of the new window check where it says "Show Guide Borders"

                              There is nothnig wrong with your text, the haziness is a result of the color combinations not BV.

                              If you do not want yr pics to open in a new window go to the LINK button on the MENU and delete the link from there.

                              Save and Publish again.
