Wink Just finished..

I've just spent a whole day doing this site, designing from the bottom up and think i've got it done at last. As far as i can see it's all validating and there are no errors but would love it if anyone could just give me a heads up how it looks and if it's showing fine on your browser. Thanks

Oh before i forget the link is www.ownyourowncasino.co.uk

Thanks for the comments. I presume when you say logo, you mean the top banner? If this is the case, i can see it is one image and quite a large one at that so the best thing to do, or at least what i did for mine, is to cut the image up in a image editing software so that the browser has smaller images to open and thus making the page load faster. I use dreamweaver and fireworks to make my sites. If you left click and hold to the left of my top banner and then drag across you will see that the top image is mafe up of about 6 squares. When i had the image as a whole the page took much longer to load. Hope this helps you. Your site is great, easy to navigate and a nice colour scheme that's easy on the eye. I think if you just cut up your images into smaller chunks you'd be well on your way as slow loading sites can turn visitors away. If you want me to cut the static images up for you, fire me a pm with the image attached and i'll see what i can do for you.

Thumbs up Re: Just finished..

Not a problem, i've cut into 7 segments for you and if you're using voda you should be able to place them ok. I don't use it myself so can't help you with that side of things myself i'm afraid but hope this helps with what you want.

Thanks jkadin for your comments, much appreciated.

Hi Mook-
I like the site, bright, nice colors, interesting. However, from your home page when I clicked on Casino News, after about a minute, it never did load. When I clicked on Partners, it was really fast to load. Also, on your partner page, did you want all that white space down the left side when you have all the logos down the right side? Maybe if you made two columns and shortened up the page a little still retaining all your info at the bottom it might "read" nicer. Just a suggestion. Overall, nice feel.

The casino news is basically just a news feed so could be a browser related problem but just to be sure, what browser are you running. Anyone else having this problem?

The partners page is going to be full with partner links eventually but i take what your saying and think i'll shorten this for the time being until it gets filled.

No problem adele, always glad to help where i can. Let me know if there's anything else i can help with and how you get on.

I tried to open it just now and all the pages work perfectly. I don't know why it didn't work before, sorry to have alarmed you. Good luck with your site.

Glad to hear it Subpainter, it was prob just a loss in con***tion either yours or the feeds end whichever at least it works. lol

Sedona Thanks for the heads up. Always good for a second pair of eyes to look over a page, i wouldn't have not that myself.

Thanks both for you comments and input.
