Thread: Changes, Font,headers

The links that don't work are still in the making. What about font,new home page header colours. Just overall I guess. The Chiapas page will not center. Any suggestions appreciated. A way to go I know. Your critque is appreciated.

Hi choco,

Your site is very nice, would look better if your "welcome " title was more to the right of your pic at the moment its overlapping your photo...

Ive explained to you what you have to do to get that page right in the other thread but your not taking the advice choco :o)

LINDA, Thanks,I swear I tried on the BV it is all the way to the left...so I do not know how to put it any more to the left. I have changed the page many times and each time it was at 800x600 or less,in width it is long, does that matter? I really cannot figure it out. Maybe I should clone it and see if I can move it?????? Believe me I follow directions...I just don't seem to get to the destinations others arrive at...at least not a fast.
Once you get up the stupid tree it is hard to get out.

lol...did you move all your images over to the left ?

No it doesnt matter how long it is

I think what i would do is start that page again ..new page ...set guidelines and leave the dark background till last so you can see where you are ..then just copy everything over .. wouldnt take long really must be something really simple ...all i can see is that all your images and text is to far over to the right of the page .

yes,m'am. I'll do just that. I'm having problems with the mouse ...no the one on the computer. It won't move correctly it jerks itself along (hey that would have made a good excuse, oh well), and moves at least a quarter of an inch and that is the least it will go. need to reboot i guess.But thanks you are a help, believe me.

changed it all ....nothing hidden outside 800w.
new page looks same as far as being askew.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Choco777: Is your page properties width and height the same as your Layout Guide settings? I just had the same thing happen to one of my pages, where it wasn't centering. I tried everything. Then I realized the page properties and Layout-Guide Settings were different. I changed the guide settings to the same as the page properties and re published and now it is center. Don't know if this is the same problem you are having, but worth a try!

yes the guide on the bv buiklder is the same. anything is worth a try.

pg props show 800x1715

Well, supposedly length doesn't matter, but I just set both of mine to 800 X 2500 just to be sure and it worked for me. I was just looking at it again and playing with the screen. It does appear to be centering when I change my browser width, but it sure is acting like there is something over on the left side that is throwing it to the right. Maybe someone will be along that knows more of what to suggest so you can determine why that page is acting like that.

Also noticed on your home page that your nav button text is not on the buttons.

Good luck with this and if I come up with another idea, I'll let you know.

Thanks your help is appreciated.

Are you sure you didn't open a text box, etc - that is somehow to the right of everything and throwing it all off - even tho it has nothing in it? If you made the page afresh- you didn't copy and paste or clone it, did you? Cuz that would have taken care of it (I would have thought) if you did it totally fresh). Can't think of any other reason.

Thanks for your time.

First I removed everything to see if there qwas somehting hidden. There was not. I then replaced the same images buttons,etc. The first thing that happened whn the page was still showing cetered, the sound changed, it woud start two different .wavs, playing over each other. I deleted them and then the problem began. Can submitting a ticket on something like this help, is it solveable for them?

had to submit a ticket, now index page is in same condition

Choco777, looks to me like everything is working fine now. Your index page looks fine, but just isn't centered, it is all to the left. Your Chiapas page now looks fine.

Thanks i have to change so much since the link text isn't inside the button, you said. I did nothing to cause the index change it happened exactly as chiapas. Is it in anyones opinion,not that anyone reads this but the two of us,it might be better to list the links as images and as plane text at the bottom of the page? you know what I mean.

Oh my, I just looked at your index page again and now it is messed up. Maybe you are working on it. I see you have removed the text from the left side buttons. I like the nav buttons on the bottom. I think it would work find to have the images link to your other pages, and also a text link at the bottom, although that may confuse some folks.

yeah was working on it. you are right maybe just say to click on images or text. I tried FF and on MSN and chiapas and the index were never right. Turned in a ticket and they say it is being turned over to a supervisor.. We'll see. All these sites up in hours or days ....mine a month a least...but I see other things and change to often. Thanks for your input it really helps to know there is someon out there. Stick with me and you'll be a 4 star in no time.

LOL!! For your sake, I hope your issues are settled before I change rank again! Have a good day.

LOTS OF HELP from SUPPORT. Supervisor sys use the enter cox on page properties. How does he think they were centered before . I guess I have to settle for what I have.
Either that or start over,thats not much of an option right now. But, thanks for you attempts to help.

I found the prob. it was in the HTML of the page. bits of BGSound were fragmented do not know how. hope it is centered now. Chaipas at least

YES!!! I'm so glad you found it. Chaipas page works and looks great with centering and sound!! Are you going to recenter your home page now? Your site is wonderful with all the pictures. A little more work to pull it all together with your links an you'll have it!! When my rank changes, and I get a raise, I just may have to come visit!! lol.

Cindy,

let me know and there just might be a discount. I centered the front page , looking for some bells and whistles but not toooo much. Thanks!

George

Hi there, great work. But i think that you should move the text down, not sticked to the top. And put more words at least 300-400 not 233 actualy to equilibrate the page and give enough text content.

Let the images and landscapes speak for themselves - simple websites are more user friendly.

Right Bill,
Just unsure about the dark colors does it seem to have no borders or what?

The ovals on your home page have a blue border, personally I prefer the white borders used for the other pics. The others are ok without a border - for these you might consider downloading Paint.net, see *****'s post http://www.vodahost.com/vodatalk/rev...hop-clone.html. there's a way in Paint.net to smooth the edges.

Thanks Bill

Hey Choco

You fixed the scroll! ...well done ..looks great! :o)

Bill, I'm just now downloading the Paint.net program. Thanks for the heads up and I'll let you know or show you how much use i get from it.
