It took an extra second to load, I'm on Aol. Some of the text appears to be a little crooked.

Your graphics are excellent.

Loads up okay on my computer, I think you might have too many things going on, some of your images seem like they might be a little distorted, try and keep them in perspective to their look, the music played for me, nice to see you can turn it off ... a little flashy for the topic at hand, maybe?? But you are getting there ... the white text shows up well, however, the black on the dark blue doesn't, you might think about that ...

THANKS did anyone go to the second page by the go button on the bottom?
i suspect Ladyeye has a nice computer I'm wondering should i mae changes for average computers or do you think they can handle it. I do want to keep my flash but will sacrifice for the sake of not losing people if it takes awhile to load. I will check on the black on dark blue also thanks.

Your page loads alright.
-The letters that appear different could be that you used a font (Rockwell?) that is not common on other computers, by default others would see it as Arial or Times. If this is the case, correct it by changing to Arial or one of the common fonts: Verdana, Times, Courier, Arial.
-Watch your spelling and grammar: "THATS LATIN...." should be "THAT'S", better yet drop "THAT'S"
-Your page seems to be wider than 800 and is appears slightly off center
-While not as important, might want to shorten the page so you avoid that unused empty space at the bottom.

Good luck

GREAT Feedback that helps will look into it . Any comments on my page 2

Hi, the load is ok with me.I think you do have to many things going on, and this can divert viewers focus on what you want to sell. The graphic is very nice, I did the same thing with my first website, and then I realized that was better to have less things going on. I have just started too, I am still learning.Keep up with the good job.Alas

Sorry I forgot,
It is a little difficult to go to the next page, but this is because viewers are expecting to find the menu button at the top of the page.

Hey Don

Your site is quite flashy but looks good. The only thing I find is the red writing is hard to look at and hurts my eyes when I look at it for a while.

Great work

How to I get to page 2?

bill2006 · #11 05-03-2007, 02:43 PM

Page 2:
-Use of Upper Case or CAPS is generally considered "yelling" and is harder to read. Might want to change all to sentence case.
-Consider slowing down the marquee or leaving it static.

Good luck

Thanks for the input. Imade some changes when anyone gets time please check I consider it to be almost 90% done but I know I will have to do a little more tweaking. I put some highlighted text near the go button on the bottom to reach page two.

Loads really fast! However it takes some time to get what you are trying to sell.

Cheers,

whiteshepherd · #14 05-26-2007, 03:57 AM

I think it looks really great ... had real trouble finding the second page ... personal thoughts are there is too much information crammed into one or two big pages ... sorry but I am an editor by profession and capital letters, in my opinion, should be used sparingly ... capitals makes descriptive text hard to read, detracts from the real message and I consider it to be yelling ... but I think you are doing a great job ... hope this is constructive ...

I'd love for you to tell me your secret: How/where did you make the TESTIMONIAL header?

PlayItByBeer · #16 05-26-2007, 12:15 PM

Loads going on... Maybe reduce your front page to just enough info to catch us "big boned" people,

Then reel us in and make the sale on an easy to find page two,three...

Maybe block off or group some of the text as the brain over-load scares some off ... the 'fat kid' is often shy by nature.

You've got some great design aspects in place and it's looking good, slight front page reduction and there'll be less 'big boned' people in world!!!

Cheers,

I'm not sure I understand nor can I "picture" your suggestion PlayItByBeer, but if you can clarify it further, I'll consider it, after all, you are all my 'audience' and test ground for others visiting through the spiders. LOL

Hi there

You have a problem with the black background on your second page.

I clicked on the get $5.00 ( a good fishing hook!!) but when i got to the second page i scrowled down there seemed to writing, pictures on a black background which was totally unreadable, im going back to have a proper look now.

Hi Pristinelife,

I think we have succeeded in confusing each other, my response or post was neither to your response nor your site.

It was to the question posed by 1lear and his diet site (who's post this is). (?????????)
