    Great Concept, overall layout design!

    However, you really must re-size your pages to 800 wide max (that would even allow you to present your image without the distortion from "stretching"), and then "center" it for the browsers via Page Properties. When this is done, I believe you will see your website really "pop" from the simplified, crisp layout, as well as make it optimal for visitors!

      Hello. I like the site and bookmarked it for later viewing. When I
      saved it in favorites, It came up as 'untitled' as the page name.
      I also had to scroll sideways to view the full page. I was using a
      notebook computer with a 14in screen. I would suggest looking at
      the page properties and making some adjustments. Right click on
      page, go to properties, under page name, give your page a name.
      Do this for each page. You might also consider reducing the width of
      the pages by lowering the 'width' setting in the properties. You
      can experiment with the setting while viewing on a smaller screen,
      or just set it to 800. Also, check the box 'center in browser' so
      folks on the big screens will get the page in the center.

      I will be back to order!

      Welcome aboard!

        Wow, nice, took me back a few years -lol
        Few things to consider in addition to above
        -The mouseovers on your menu need work, default to BV.
        -Pages are untitled.
        -Counters are out of fashion now and what is this under the couter "prescription meds" ?
        -Link your e-mail so users do not have to copy and paste and check spelling (space) LPoling8466****.comwith

          Thank everyone of you for your comments on my web site. I will work on your susjestion this week. This is the kind of information I needed because the page fits my computer, but I was worried about other computers. Also I just learned about naming pages last week. I am having trouble with Forms. When I followed the instructions you have here on the
          the forum to build a form that people can leave there e-mail or contact me when I test it, it opens up MY Yahoo page. That I don't understand because there is no link to my yahoo. Also everone seems to have a counter on there website but Your right, kind of amatureish. (probaby no such word).

            We speak typonese fluently, so don't worry about the spelling. Of course if you reallly want to know:


            amateurish
            adj : lacking professional skill or expertise; "a very amateurish job"; "inexpert but conscientious efforts"; "an unskilled painting"

            On a more serious note, here are a couple of posts on e-mail forms:
            Andy: http://netisopen.com/computer/web/webpagestuff.html
            David: http://youandmelinkup.info/forms/

            On your form did you change the Action to 'mailto:info@yourdomain.com' ? it seems like you may have pointed to your yahoo but not to your e-mail.

              Nice idea, nice site, but as mentioned by others you definitely need to resize the page. No one likes scrolling across. If you need advice on this let us know

                Also, on your menu bar the word detective is mispelt.

                I agree aboutthe page width. Also, when you put the mouse over the menu bar you should change it to something that follows your theme instead of the Bluevoda icon.


                Site looks good though - nice job.

                  Re: New Site up and running at last

                  Ok, I resized my main pages. How do I change the mouse over? Also I caught that Detective was spelled wrong and changed it. I work days and sometime am up late at night working on this site. I lost a whole months work during a storm so now I upload as soon as I finish a page. No I never used my Yahoo address in the form. Yahoo hosts my domain name. Could this be the problem? PS In order to resize my pages I had to change some of the layout. I named all my main pages. My secondary pages still need work which I hope to take care of this weekend.

                    That looks much better resized and in the center!

                    Too change the mouse over you right click on the menu buttons and then go to the style tab. In the middle you will see it says Image. The normal one is the one you have chosen, the mouse over one is the one that you need to select - just choose what image you want displayed. Save and republish and you are good to go!

                    Let us know when you have made the change and I will have a look.

                      I centered my main pages, corrected the spelling of detective, fixed the mouse over, and am now working on my secondary pages. (The description pages of the shows). This will take awhile because there are about 600 of them.

                            HI,
                            looks like you've done quite a bit of work and most of the above suggestions have been taken on board. The site looks good, and I think it's a brilliant idea as well.
                            I was a bit confused by the info about the programs for use on MP3s..."For a list of audio CDs click on Audio CDs button" - I couldn't find a button! Also I would lose most of the capital letters in this paragraph as they are a bit overpowering and take away from the main message.

                              Very interesting site. I used to refuse to slop the hawgs until I finished listening to the Lone Ranger --Hi Ho Siver, Awaaaaay. The top of your page seems a little disjointed. At first I had the impression that something didn't load.
