Hi Demo,

well youve done a great job so far, just needs a little tweaking, you need to center your pages and set your widths, click on the links below and this will fix it for you.

Also it would look better if all your pages looked the same as your home page ...take the theme throughout your site, looks more professional.

Well done

Nice plastering work by the way :o)

Heres a handy little tool (pixresizer) to resize your pics for faster loading

A very good start to your site demo7.... listen to Linda... she is very wise when it comes to helpful hints on your site.

Do a search under Search Engine Optimization... Bethers has created an ebook that gives great advice on optimizing your site for search engines. You are doing quite well... keep up the good work.

Demo ive done this sample to show you how it looks in 800 width and centered, your banner at its original size fits perfect and ive tried to get as near to the colour of the yellow in the banner as I could.

I like your sample a lot. The links that were in the original site to the top left were not to visible or right looking but yours are way better.

Good job LLady

i like the way it looks a lot.

asirimarco · #15 02-17-2007, 01:21 AM

you might try putting your gallery pictures (after resizing them) in BVs gallery feature then when clicked on an enlargment will pop up
off to a great start keep working

With reference to Linda´s suggestion about an Email button, why not have a Contact Us page which will give you instant feedback from your potential clients.
