New Look For Beez World

beegud2 · #1 03-07-2007, 06:05 PM

Hi All,

Well I realize i've been away for a sometime and i have it but all for a good reason. I've been busy doing some writing...finding out a lot about what it takes to publish an e-book and redoing my website. In between i've had one wedding to attend and nother coming up very soon...ahhh...you know spring is in the air....lol.

And to top it all off..i've been away so long ...i didn't realize my VH IP had changed but as soon as found out i wasn't nuts and not accidentally in the twilight zone, i was ableto resolve the problem.

So now on with the show or rather the critiques....I ask you one and all for your most wise and astute observations on my my newly done website. I havea few things i'm still redoing as i lost some work due to some freaky weather over the last few days and so some pages are not completely finished as i'm r-inputting the info.

As ususaly i've got my armor on and ready for all the critiques...ROFL. I want to see your views good and bad before i launch the site and resubmit to all the search engines.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Beez, welcome back, you have been missed.................

Now, Where has all the content gone from your original??

Some of the underlined links in blue are not working.
and it might be a good idea to have a Next Page and Previous Page links on each page of your book(looks as if you are turning the pages)

Nice idea in total but still need a lot of work, sorry Beez...........

BTW: Where is the E-Book that you have mentioned, I would love to get a preview for my "Your Local E-Book Center"

Keep having fun my friend.

I agree with David and found it a bit confusing to navigate, I did prefer your old one, just my opinion.

Welcome back though and I am sure you will get it just how you want it.

Regards Paul

Thanks guys...ok..i guess its back to the drawing board. David i will be advertising the book on the forum by the end of the week as i Plan to launch it on the new website next week.

I was hoping to makethe website feel like someone was reading a book. I also wanted it to be strictly about writing and therefor took out the 'travels' and 'recipes' pages. I may re-introduce the travels page if there seems to be a consensus on keeping it in. LOL....nothing like my forum buddies to keep me on my toes.

So i guess i have a lot of work to get the website really less confusing and more easy to navigate. I was thinking of the next page and previous page idea David but thought that the nav bar at the bottom would hve been better...but i guess i may have to find another less confusing way to direct traffic and maybe add a few more 'chapters' for other things that i am thinking of adding. Keep the views coming people. I really apreciate...nothing is negative ...its all constructive. An Paul thaks for your opinion...it was nice to know that that my old site was liked...lol.

Ok..i'll be working on this then .

Congrats Beez - good to see ya again!

beegud2 · #14 03-08-2007, 12:52 AM

Hi Liz...I knwo its been a while and I have missed everyone but I'm happy to say..i'm back and raring to go...probably won't be spending too much time on the forum still asI have a 'lot of pots on the fire' so to speak..but gonna try and make it in as often as I can. Please do let me knwo what you think of the new site...thanks.

larazovich · #15 03-08-2007, 01:09 AM

Glad you're back, too, Beezz, missed ya.

I just had a short look at your site, and I am having a bit of a hard time getting around, too. Well not hard, but it could be easier.

The pages are just a hair too long for me, so I have to scroll down to get to the navigation. I would love to be able to click on one of the corners top right or left to 'turn' the pages.

On your blog page the blog part has a sideways scroll for me inside the frame. Maybe the recent post part could be outside the frame or something to give the actual blog, (which I want to read), more room? No, I've got it, how about some tabs on the side for each chapter, or something like that, then you click the tab to go to the chapter, which would be the blog or whatever but it would fill the whole pageon theleft, the next on the right, then page turns, more of it...am I making any sense at all?

Love the fun and games for qwiter's bloc stuff, great fun..

I am not seeing the short stories or poetry are you still adding that?

I like the general idea like the open book look - nice.

So there you go..
later gator
