My first attempt at a Web Site

Post by **ptitterington** » Mon Dec 24, 2007 2:28 pm

Well I thought it would be easy. Ha ha stupid me. Even with a prog like WYSIWYG web builder it is not at all easy. Any will mess about with it over christmas but any tips much appreciated.
I have figured out that I have way too many big pictures all over the place.

not bad for a first attempt

plus you have remembered the most important thing (that everyone forgets) - content is really important... it doesnt matter if you have the best design and web skills - its not worth anything if theres nothing good to actually see on the site!!

thanks for sharing your pics

by the way - you can leave the photos on photobucket and use that to host them so you dont need to copy them onto your site

Overall a first attempt of which to be proud. A few suggestions / observations, hopefully regarded as constructive......

a) Consider the screen size / resolution used by most people. Many will have to scroll right as well as down to see the whole page. Making it just a little narrower will allow easier viewing.
b) Where you have "See my new Traveller on the next page...", it's very inviting, so make this a link so that one can click on the text and go to the next page.
c) You've got a "Button 3" that doesn't do anything.

Good luck with the cars.

Oh yes forgot about that, It is my work website that a friends son did for me as a school project. I am going to try and capture it with this software and hopefully be able to edit it myself.
Thanks for all the tips.
