Thread: re see my new web site

as i said i am VERy new to this - web site is www.movingon1.com
am i in the right area for this?

You have some links that don't work, but what I have seen your place is a riot.

I agree! This is definitely a fun website, and it's great to see you publishing some of the wonderful memories that makes life so worth living!

The picture of your group only 1/2 loaded for me, and it seemed to take a bit longer to load+refresh as a page, so I might suggest you look into the size of your picture in relation to your positioning.

When you finish up you pages and get the links working right, I am sure this is going to be a hot site for you and your friends....Congratualtions!

I would change the photo on the home page from a bmp to a jpg then it will load a lot quicker. The other picture just below it and to the right doesn't show in Firefox.

Way to go, got love that trip !

Suggestions-
Might want to title your pages, go to page properties (right click on page), write whatever best reminds you of your trip or just website's name. You can also decide to center your pages in browser and your page width.
The mouse over -menu navigation bar- show BV, you can change this from properties and style or make your own.
There seems to be a text spacing problem in one of your pages: http://www.movingon1.com/lakechapala.html about where it starts "John and Bill were busy....."

Looking forward to reading the res.

Very interesting site, I enjoyed reading about your adventures. Like Sharon I found some links that were not working. Also, do you want your rollovers to show the BV logo? At the very least you might want to fix them so the words are not overlapping the logo on some of your buttons. The tweaking is part of the fun!

thanks so much for suggestions - will try to get them fixed and add more pages, central america is next i have never done anything on the web before - so this is a real challange but fun

From one newbie to another, you have done a great job. You will improve quickly by listening to the critiques and suggestions offered here. Welcome to BV.

Ditto for all above... Can you map out your journey on a map indicating the various places you stopped. That would be fun to look at a snapshot of that.

What a great fun site. My only comment would be that there is a lot of text - maybe a blank line between paragraphs would make it easier on the eye?

On your home page I would suggest a slightly larger font to make it easier to read and more eye catching - if you catch your visitor's interest here they are more likely to read on!

Will be visiting again when I have more time to read in more depth!

Like the site...very interesting stories...good job!!

I have been taking suggestions and continue to work on site - maybe will finish central america - still have to do south america -
