Hi David,

Nice site. It's loading fast!
Don't you like using 'borders' in your pictures? I think they stand out if you do that, specialy if they are on a light background, which is your case.

Cheers,

Hi David, ditto with above. Personally i would loose the snap view as there are two many links on the page & it gets a bit manic. The large popup image from the thumbnails is also very distorted.
Not sure If I am missing something? But how do you book/rent the apartment.

Sorry David but I have to agree that these pop up boxes with previews is a bit much on a site this size. As I move my mouse around your site these pop ups are getting in the way of what I am trying to look at.

Otherwise nice site.

On it's way david is a great new holiday lettings website that I would love you to add your property to. It will be Free for advertisers of home and abroad holiday properties to advertise their lets. Will let you know when it's ready.

I tend to agree with you Chris, but I am re-constucting AND experimenting with snapshots and I will whittle down the links/images until I get a good balance.

The large popup image from the thumbnails is also very distorted.

Thats snapshots condensed version.....if you actually click on the link or picture you are presented with the normal full sized picture.

Not sure If I am missing something? But how do you book/rent the apartment.

Prices and booking will have a page of its own, but I tend to add the link and page when its ready so as to keep the seo's happy.

Thanks for all your useful comments Chris.................

Hi, thats the one i mean. The software takes it up to a large image of 780x582 but the image is only 480x318 so its giving it a real fuzzy look.

Cheers.

Hi, I'm sorry David! but most of them. IE: This is an original image http://www.mvpalma1.net/kichenarea_01.JPG & this is the one being distorted. http://www.mvpalma1.net/kitchen.html due to the gallery stretching it.

**davidundalicia** · 08-11-2008, 02:36 PM

Re: Re-constructing "Holiday home to let" website - Comments appeciated.

Chris, please dont be sorry, your observations are just what I am looking for.

I am not using a gallery, I stretched it myself, idiot that I am.......lol

I have reduced http://www.mvpalma1.net/kitchen.html

Can you see if thats any better Chris, if not I will take another photo and resize it properly................cheers Chris.
