    Check mine.......

    This is my very first attempt. It's not a business site, just a fun site to get our dance group introduced to the town. No one is taking it real seriously so it doesn't have to be perfect. The extra page links on the pictures page don't go anywhere yet. The "meet us" page is under construction. Other than that..........what do you think?

    looks alright... Maybe shorten your scrolling marquee... Make your nav bar buttons bigger... Looks ok.

      G'day mate..

      Nice work.. The site looks neat and well organized.

      My comments, besides that would be:
      1. Navigation buttons need to go a knoch bigger..
      2. Your index page size need to go a bit longer so that the entire page is clear with a few pixels margin at the bottom.

      Good job.

        Your site looks great. Maybe make your buttons bigger. My older eyes can't read them.

          Hi,
          ditto Carlos' comments. Looks good though and there are an awful lot of step sheets on there. Hope you didn't have to write them all yourself!

            OK. I made the buttons bigger - at least on most of the pages... a couple of pages the bigger buttons just won't fit right.
            I have tried to make the index page longer as was suggested. In preview mode, it goes longer. After it is published it stays the shorter length. At least that is what shows in my browser. I did save the page before publishing again, but it still stays short.
            Anyone know what I might be doing wrong to why I can't get the page to go longer?

              You're doing fine.....

              Since this is just a "fun" site, the only thing I can suggest is to merely continue trying to keep proportional perspective foremost, and possibly adding a photo "album" that would help to organize your pictures (which I am sure you have tons!) into a visitor-friendly tool. You have a choice of albums available as a Vodahost client, and Beegud2 is apparently our resident Guru who you can reach out to for step-by-step advice....

                If it were mine.......I would make a rectangular shape solid or , your choice, just so you could read any text over it,put it behind the rest, make it look more centered. Then I would check the backgrounds offered by BV and choose a darker (a shade or two) bg . Or stretch the one u are using if you can. Buttons still a little small, but workable.

                  Very Nice site...All the links I checked worked well.. good job... As far as your dilema with the short page, this is what I did to solve my problem. I wanted just a little extra length, so I opened a new text and deleted the default line "Double click to edit". the remaining blank square I placed at the bottom of my page (the further down you place it, that's how much longer you will make your page). hope this helps

                    Just change your page length in page properties.

                        Great site, love the hardwood floor background.
                        I see many free animations put to tasteful use.
                        Like ez-ez said it could use larger buttons.
                        It wouldn't hurt to put all the buttons on all the pages so viewers could go from any page to any other page.
                        I think you could get many more photos on your photo galleries.
                        If you want some margin on the bottom of your page enter "magic dot" in forum search for a simple tecnique

                          you have put a lot of work into this- great job.

                          Maybe just center the pages under page properties.

                          Godd job though!

                            Got a real nice cloudy soft background that looks great But I have a sort of solid line running about ¾ of the way across my screen to the right running vertical. Not sure if this was intentional, but looks a bit odd on my screen with the soft background.

                            Otherwise you’re doing great.

                              Hi,
                              You may just need to refresh your browser after you publish a replacement page - I only know this because I asked why my changes weren't happening online!! Press Control +F5 and you should see the changes you have published.
