Hey, I really like the font you used. What is it? That is cool. I am not familiar with imageshack. Will take a visit over there and look around. Meanwhile, Thanks for the sample. Will probably use it, if you don't mind, to start with.As for a banner, perhaps something like this will do the job? (Probably looks a bit familiar
)
Just what makes a good background and layout? Please go into more detail about what you mean. I guess I am a little dense.hey nice site.. jus have some objections like the background and layout.. i like stuff that has a good structure, background, colour scheme and etc.. yu jus need to sort out the background and layout.

I think you will have to offer the mods a little more information about what exactly you have done before they will be able to answer this. I am wondering what you mean myself. Did you remove folders and files that were there when you opened your file manager initially?
LIke the following should be left alone. -
I am back from my vacation and need to design a banner that meets your specifications. I have already put a banner/link on my banner exchange page to your site. Any suggestions for a nice banner for mine? My sig is the only one I have at the moment. Will you be hotlinking to the banner or downloading it to your site for use? Oh and, can I change banners at a later date?By the way, if you're interested my site has a free banner rotation service for graphics related sites like yours. The banners are averaging 1500+ views a month, which can only help to promote your site.

I have run up a new desktop as of today 2/11/2006.
It is a Native American theme. -
Yes, this global warming is for real and we had better start listening. I have been following reports on this problem for some time now and the effect on the glaciers up at the pole is really alarming. They are disappearing. This is having a tremendous effect on the balance of nature. We are having all these world wide natural disasters as a result, in my oppinion. Consider the number of hurricanes we have had this year, just in the USA. Katrina was a warning of things to come. -
Me too and dido. Who wants ads on our sites. It would really mess up my graphic design web sets and I have sooo many pages. The only ads that bother me are the animated ones that take a long time to load.think of it this way..would you rather have the ads on the forums that you post on, or would you rather have them on the website you plan on making? personally i would rather have them on the forum i am posting on than at the top of every one of my pages on my website..so just be happy they are on these forums and not the website you are making..yes thay may be annoying but they keep the site running so they can offer a free service to us less fortunate people hehe!
I am on an ancient telephone line system and things can get realllly slooooow sometimes.

Thank you for the generous compliments. I have checked out your favorite and indeed like it as well. Have e-mailed asking for a link exchange. Hope it works out. One can also use the links page at that site to cruise the web for more wonderful graphic designs for homepages. Thanks again.This was my favorite site back in those days, I can't believe I still remember the name of the designer, I haven't looked at that site in years. I did just check to make sure the site still exists, though. She does the most beautiful work. Your site reminds me of hers a little bit. Marvelicious Graphics
PS We have exchanged links

I use Paint Shop Pro and am always learning/finding something new in it that I hadn't stumbled on before. When I have mastered it, I will probably try Photoshop from all the recommendations I have seen about it.

Well we had them at our K-mart for a while, but they took them out. Were more trouble than they were worth. I guess the customers were not handy enough to use them correctly.I'm not sure how common these are elsewhere but I had my first self serve check out experience a few days ago.
It kind of looks like a checkout but with no checkout chicks
Anyhoo it was really fun to start with... open the bag scan a few items and then pick up the full bag to hear a voice "item has been removed from checkout, please put it back before continuing" so you put it back and scan some stuff.So here I have $100 worth of stuff to fit on a little rack, I got one back removed but it would not let me remove any others... it was soo frustrating hearing that woman's voice a million times!
Then I happened to buy a knife so I had to get that checked to make sure I was old enough to buy.
Finally I have stacked everything up in this little space and have to pay with credit card... so then that needs to get approved too.
In theory this is a great system and i'm sure it would have been if I didn't have a whole heap of items and paid another way... there needs to be a warning about the ammount of products you can have.

I have similar problems under the same circumstances. We don't have fiberoptics yet and that creates phone line problems. The older lines are what you call "dirty" with static etc.Well, it could also be your ISP. I have dial-up, and even when I'm NOT disconnected, I get that message sometimes. I find that it happens when there is slow communication between my computer and my ISP. It could be other problems as well, though. However, I'm not really noticing it that much. Also, when it says it for me, it does it for other sites. When it says that the server couldn't be found, did you try some other website for the same message?
To keep from having to type everything over again, I usually highlight and copy what I have written so if the post disappears I can paste it in when I start over.

My book says 1006 by 732 is the average screen content size to keep from having scroll bars. Anybody else know better?

No offense taken. I found it rather intimidating at first, but my daughter got me interested and I ran with it. Found it so much fun, I embraced it as a hobby. Keeps me from living at the refrigerator door. Or simply sitting and watching the boob tube.welcome to the forums, to the site, and to our little circle of friends! You have no idea how pleased I am that someone as old as you (don' t take it badly, i really can word it any nicer ;P) uses a computer and actually codes!
Well bless their hearts. So many older citizens are unwilling to give it a try. This includes my husband. And bless you for helping your grandparents to keep up their mental agility. I could never get my mother to understand that she didn't have to type as fast as the computor operated. She was very intimidated by the whole technology of it all.My grandparents (70-80y/o) still have problems with my old iMac I gave them 3 years ago. They're afraid to close browser windows or applications, fearing they will never come back.. like a letter you throw away. Kinda funny to watch, not fun trying to tell them how to open Word over the phone, long distance, for 4 hours while explaining terminology. "Yea, that little folder on the screen, that's a folder. if you doubleclick it, you can open it. no, doubleclick. meaning click twice. no, faster. you need to double click. tap it twice fast. what do you mean it disappeared?" LOL!
Thank you for the compliments. It was my intent to make people feel welcome at my sites. I guess that is why the quiantness is evident. I have visited a lot of sites that are more modern in their construction, but I do favor the simple html and use of tables. I am still embarking on the adventure of learning more advanced methods of coding. However, I think that most people want their homepages to be "homier" and will find it difficult to construct such things as flash pages for their own use. Don't misunderstand me, flash is super cool, but I feel just a little complicated for the average user.

A beautiful Gardenia in full bloom, of course.
It is of my own rendering done in Paint Shop Pro. Gardenia is my favorite flower and the theme of my web site.

Yes Zen Garden is a lovely site and has lots of sources for people. Went there yesterday myself and was really impressed.wow that first site has some great websites. these people that make them must spend alot of time on them. i am currently making a website, and i have put numorous hours into and look absolutly nothin like these websites on tha link that you posted.

Are you working with one of my sets or making one of your own? Or are you trying go make a seamless background tile? Maybe I can help if you give me a little more information as to what you are trying to do.

I don't use the webprotection option. I find it tiring enough to enter passwords for everything else. So, I certainly wouldn't want to have to enter it twice using this option. I just wonder why you haven't gotten an answer from at least one of the mods.

I just read this article by Reuters that says that some Canadian scientists tested people by showing them a website and asking them what they thought of it. They found that most people judge a website in 1/20 of a second. That really makes me nervous being a web designer because I biased when it comes to my own websites, I love them. Do you think you judge websites that quickly.
I don't think that time span is possible either. But, I would be interested in knowing the results of this testing. Like, if they didn't like the colors, your site flunked thier test. It would be nice to know which aspects made the like list and which didn't. Might help us web designers to know which designs we have wasted our time on.

I noticed this post the day you put it up. I don't know the answer, but nobody has posted one here for you. Did anybody ever answer you on this? I am curious.

Glad I could be of help. Here is a template version of my tumbnail link page for your photos. You can edit it to suit your needs.
Be patient when you click on the link, it takes a few moments for the download window to appear. If I can help in any other way, please feel free to PM me.

I give Trillian a thumbs up also. Have been using for 3 years now and it makes it so easy for me to keep track of all my friends. They don't all use the same messenger, but I can catch them all. I have had 3 or more windows of Trillian communications having conversations with as many people at the same time without having 3 or more different programs running. Eats up your resources really quick. Multi-tasking can lock up my puter sometimes. Ugh, I need a new one. This one is 5 years old now and I am still running on Windows 98 S.
Tell us a little about yourself and what your plans are here at this site. People here are very helpful and friendly. I have only been on board a little while and have learned something new every day.
No More Note Tags Either ;) What does this mean?
