Re: review my home page

It looks alot better. Great you got rid of the marquee problem. But I would still think over the use of Guest Verdict, I know I don't know what it is. The page looks 100% better than last time I saw it. Still no page name.

Re: review my home page

Be sure it is in fact titled index and simply published in the same name. Try "SAVE AS" to officially save it once more....
>Right click on your page in BV and be sure to enter the Page Title, Meta values before you publish.

Do not add anything in the Publish dialog box when publishing to your main account...
you should only see public_html/ and the space to the right blank...

And, you should have a few pages ready by now to publish (even if not finished) just so you can test out your linking and logistics....give you a framework to fill-in, right?

Re: review my home page

do you by any chance have 2 index pages open - sometimes that happens and then you cannot save. just a thought been there done that.

Dennis-

When hyperlinking (pages, to other websites, or "email" functions), when working in BV you have the option to specifiy the type of action for each command whenever you use the "Hyperlink Tool" (which looks like a World with a link of chain in front of it in the top of the BV browser).

A dialog box will present, and by default, will display the "http://" action -- you will see in the menu that you can also insert the "mailto:" command if you want the link to automatically create an email to be sent to you.

Below the "action" command, you will see TARGET, and the menu there will show:
_blank > this will open up a new browser window as a "pop-up"...Highly preferred, as this leaves your Main/index page always underneath = something to anchor the visit.
TOP > which will simply 'switch' pages like in a book, leaving the current page behind *This will automatically be filled in unless you choose _blank or mailto: ...essentially, don't bother selecting anything unless you want a pop-up, email, or bookmark!
SELF > this will direct the command to seek a destination on this same page: to use this to zoom in on an area of content, and you will have to add an "#" (bookmark) to the URL string >see bookmark tutorial i.e. TOP could return you to the bookmarked top of page, and Returns (if also bookmarked) would skip down the page to the paragraph describing Returns....
mailto: > which is the command you will always specify to create email: you will insert your email address, etc. to get it delivered any way you want, but remember! it will only open the specified default email editor of the viewer, you cannot force Outlook on him for instance.

I think you get the hang of this now, right??

Re: review my home page

And....I would select either Verdana (#1) or Arial (#2) as your chosen Font style....they are universal and easy on the eyes. And, if Verdana, 9pt is optimal, and Arial at 10pt.....consistency=continuity, and THAT is essential!

You have a few grammatical and typo errors already: try this method>
Compose your content in Word, in the right font at the right size, and then use Spell check for spelling and grammar (it will also point out syntax and missing/extra spaces, etc.). When satisfied, simply Highlight/Copy/Paste into the BV text box...done!
It's also the simplest way for others to contribute writing content and by transferring files, be able to move methodically and more quickly through the layout stages.

Re: review my home page

Hi Yakuba.
I like the template, text gives good info.
I personally like a marquee that comes in and stops, your call.
The open spaces on each side of the text (orange and light grey) could be utilised.

[yakuba]

Re: review my home page

Hi
Thank you Bruce. Feel encouraged!!!!
The orange/grey space will be utilised.

Thank you Vasili. Your help and advice is highly appreciated.
Please feel free to correct me on the grammer/spellings.

Re: review my home page

It is absolutely much better than the last time I saw it. Personally, I am a stickler to offsetting details that make my eyes wonder. Take a look at your links just above the marqee and you will see what I mean. "Home" is very close to the edge on the left and the end of "payment" (the letter T) is farther away from the edge on the right. What I am trying to say is, Move your links over to the right just a bit so that it will be centered. I am assuming you will also have more to add to your site so I will visit from time to time. I like the improvementsso far.

You probably had two pages open at once.
