Thread: my first ever website not using templates

Hi everyone,

I invite some feedback for my new website ... it is the first ever website I have built from the ground up and appreciate all constructive criticism ... it is about 65% finished .... there are still some pages with information to go up on it ... www.whiteshepherds.com.au

thank you

Your pages are way to heavy. Mine are heavy but at the same time they opened with a "breeze". Pictures didn't open on a index page... Maybe you forgot to "handle them".Anyway, I totally like the little animation and the sparkling colors. Suggestion: In order to smooth the contrast between photos and the background try to check out if you put a white or a darker blue background to these pictures to make them look little bit like 3d. Background should come out from max 3 sides only (try 2 and 3 what feels better).You done a great job!

Thanks Cornuto ... but I am not sure what you mean ... do you mean they are downloading too slowly ... sorry but I am still getting the hang of what is going ...

Hi Kym, my bad. Server was working akwardly and when I tried again index opened pretty fast.
What i mean by sd thing is this: Go to INSERT go down to SHAPE, click the shape okay and you have a box that you can shape as you will. Check the size (not on index page) of one of your pictures and make this shape size little bit bigger from 2 or 3 sides (I think original color is grey but by double clicking you can change it). Click your picture PRESS RIGHT MOUSE and choose MOVE FRONT. You can slide the picture on top of this "shadow" and see how it makes difference:)

Hows that

Thank Cornuto ... I'll try it tonight and see what happens ... thank you

You have done alot of good work. Your pages come out wide on my computer. Check your width, and don't let it get too much passed 800. I like the way the pictures in the gallery have a black border, it makes them stand out, try that on the front page too, maybe. By the way nice dogs!!!

Thank you SAman ... I appreciate your comments ... hopefully I'll be able ti implement some of your comments tonight but am having problems with internet explorer ... aarrghh ... frustrating ... I wanted to get this finished this week but this is holding me up ...
