Gardening site

Marincky · #1 03-28-2008, 12:53 AM

Ok, I needed tons of stuff doing to my garden but couldn't afford this guy as I just paid for a two week cruise! ... so... out came the usual question.. 'Do you have a website?...

So... now he does!

All comments welcome.

Do they travel?

The site is clean, green looking good...but I'm not sure about the sunflower.

Cheers,

Cheers,

sssssshhhhhhhhh!!!! Karen (KMAC) made me that... she'll smack ya you know!

No to be honest, it went with how I first designed the site... but now I changed it and not sure myself.. just building up the courage to ask her for somethin else to take it's place

adele1972 · #8 03-28-2008, 01:23 AM

what about this instead!! Kidding :)

Looks good--makes me want to be a tourist there. The green dots on the home page do not line up with the type. I'm on IE7

Tom, I got IE7 and they line up for me? Anyone else? Can you tell me a bit more precisely? I mean do you mean all of them, just one.. two??

Mmmmmmm You know im not sure on this one, very green as stated, when I say im not sure I don't know if I like it or not, but it does its job, simple and easy. I think I would rather see a pic of the person involved and maybe more gardening equipment, it has definatley got a sort of website for a park feel to it.

Green dots are fine for me!

By the way Ramsey, I do that

"Have you a website"

"No"

"Want one"

"Love one yes"

The rest is history

Hi Paul, 'website for a park' feel? LOL, what does that mean?

Hey, if the client looks at it and still turns up to do my garden... I'm happy LOL

Because we got this cruise booked we needed someone to stay at our property for 2 weeks and look after our dog.. She wanted £500 so once again... 'do you have a site' ??? worked a treat!! She ended up paying me to look after my dog

adele1972 · #14 03-28-2008, 01:35 AM

lots of gardening images on photobucket!

You know what I want Adele? Just a small green leaf, but in a gif format so I can lay it on that background, so in other words transparent background... been searching all over.. if you find one let me know

But not like a cartoony one.

Lol, no dis-respect Ramsey, just the pics of benches and butterflys, it just looks like pictures from a park, but hey what do I know!

By the way £500 to live rent free and feed and walk a dog, please call me next time!

Anyway hope you enjoyed the cruise, I have thought about going on one of these, I get bored of beaches and pools and have considered it...Good time?

Hi again.

I'm sure there's an easy way to post a screen shot here, but instead I've created a page with the shot (of the green dots/type issue I mentioned above). You can view it at http://www.clamcentral.com/scrnshot.html

Thanks for that Tom... I don't know why you are seeing it like that though. hmmm... what to do..

adele1972 · #20 03-28-2008, 01:52 AM

1 2 3 4 5

Tom Finley · #21 03-28-2008, 01:53 AM

OK--give me a holler if you need me to take a look in the future.

If I ask for number two please... BUT... I am still in two minds about the sunflower, everyone's giving me mixed feelings here.... so if you don't mind doing that for me, I'll compare it, but might not use it...that ok?

adele1972 · #23 03-28-2008, 01:56 AM

no problem...no 2 it is :)

Thanks Tom... I think it may be a font resolution issue, might have to just put up with it, from what I am getting on feedback everyone else sees it ok. Thanks anyway mate.

Read properly before opening mouth comes not mind.......

Going back to the site, yes IMO its lacking actual gardening images, if I landed on I would have to read a bit before I knew what the site was about. But if the clients happy then you have done your job.

I get where you're coming from paul... The client hasn't got any images to put on the site, I will get him to provide me some.

karel · #27 03-28-2008, 02:07 AM

Good idea Ramsey, I don't know anything really, him gardening, or driving one of them sit on mowers, pics of work he has completed, a few pics like that would really bring the site to life.

But you know what these client's are like.... three months later...still waiting... same old story!... Still I'll be on the ship on my balcony, drink in hand... Michael Palin 'Around the world' book in the other.. watching the world go by...

adele1972 · #29 03-28-2008, 02:21 AM

adele :)

Karen Mac · #30 03-28-2008, 02:29 AM

LOL.. I wont smack too hard.. he just asked if i had any leaves and i didnt.. that was as close to leaves as i had with a transparent background. But that shadow if thats what you are seeing i think is from resizing after the fact.. so i sent him png now.

Karen
